Psalms 14

1

The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, they have done abominable works. There is none who does good.

2

Yahweh looked down from Heaven on the children of men, To see if there were any who did understand, Who did seek after God.

3

They have all gone aside; they have together become corrupt. There is none who does good, no, not one.

4

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, Who eat up my people as they eat bread, And don't call on Yahweh?

5

There were they in great fear, For God is in the generation of the righteous.

6

You put to shame the counsel of the poor, Because Yahweh is his refuge.

7

Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When Yahweh restores the fortunes of his people, Then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

A Psalm by David.
