Psalms 14
14
Psalm 14#14:0 Psalm 14 is virtually identical in wording to Psalm 53.
For the choir director; by David.
1Godless fools say in their hearts,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt.
They do disgusting things.
There is no one who does good things.
2The Lord looks down from heaven on Adam’s descendants
to see if there is anyone who acts wisely,
if there is anyone who seeks help from God.
3Everyone has turned away.
Together they have become rotten to the core.
No one, not even one person, does good things.
4Are all those troublemakers,
those who devour my people as if they were devouring food,
so ignorant that they do not call on the Lord?
5There they are—panic-stricken
because God is with the person who is righteous.
6They put the advice of oppressed people to shame
because the Lord is their refuge.
7If only salvation for Israel would come from Zion!
When the Lord restores the fortunes of his people,
Jacob will rejoice.
Israel will be glad.

Psalms 14
14
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
1The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.
They are corrupt, they have done abominable works;
there is none that doeth good.
2The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men,
To see if there were any that did understand,
That did seek after God.
3They are all gone aside; they are together become filthy;
There is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge?
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And call not upon the LORD.
5There were they in great fear:
For God is in the generation of the righteous.
6Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor,
Because the LORD is his refuge.
7Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!
When the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people,
Then shall Jacob rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
