PSALM 14

The Fool

To the director; a psalm to David.

1 [²said ¹The fool] in his heart, There is no God. They were corrupted and abhorrent in their practices. There is not one doing that which is good. 2 The lord from out of heaven looked upon the sons of men, to see if there is one perceiving or inquiring of God. 3 All turned aside together; they were made useless; there is not one doing that which is good; there is not even one. 4 Do [⁵not ⁶know ¹all ²the ones ³working ⁴lawlessness], the ones devouring my people as the food of bread? [²the ³ lord ¹They called not upon]. 5 There they were timid with fear, of which there was no fear; for God is with the generation of the just. 6 The counsel of the poor you disgraced, for the lord [²hope ¹is his]. 7 Who will grant from Zion the deliverance of Israel? In the lord turning the captivity of his people, Jacob shall exult, and Israel shall be glad.
