PSALM 14
To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
1The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God#GodHebrew: Elohim They have corrupted themselves, they have done abominable works: there is none that doeth good. 2Jehovah looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God#GodHebrew: Elohim 3They have all gone aside, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one.
4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people as they eat bread? They call not upon Jehovah. 5There were they in great fear; for God#GodHebrew: Elohim is in the generation of the righteous. 6Ye have shamed the counsel of the afflicted, because Jehovah was his refuge. 7Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When Jehovah turneth again the captivity of his people, Jacob shall be glad, Israel shall rejoice.

Psalms 14
14
(A psalm by David for the music leader.)
No One Can Ignore the Lord
1 #
Ro 3.10-12. Only a fool would say,
“There is no God!”
People like that are worthless;
they are heartless and cruel
and never do right.
2From heaven the Lord
looks down to see
if anyone is wise enough
to search for him.
3But all of them are corrupt;
no one does right.
4Won't you evil people learn?
You refuse to pray,
and you gobble up
the Lord's people.
5But you will be frightened,
because God is on the side
of every good person.
6You may spoil the plans
of the poor,
but the Lord protects them.
7I long for someone from Zion
to come and save Israel!
Our Lord, when you bless
your people again,
Jacob's family will be glad,
and Israel will celebrate.
