The fool has denied God, but according to this Scripture, everyone is messed up. No one is really good. So what hope do we have? Verse seven lays it out, "Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When the Lord restores his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad." What can make things better? When God restores his people.
The children of Israel thought that this was when God would put a king on the throne and restore their earthly kingdom. However, the salvation that mankind needs isn't an earthly kingdom but the kingdom that Jesus came to establish in the hearts of men. The good news for us is that Salvation has come out of Zion. It came through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
