Psalms 14
1 The fool says in his heart, “There’s no God.”(C1)
They are corrupt; they do vile deeds.
There is no one who does good.2 The Lord looks down from heaven on the human race(F1)(C1)
to see if there is one who is wise,
one who seeks God.3 All have turned away;
all alike have become corrupt.
There is no one who does good,
not even one.(C1)
4 Will evildoers never understand?
They consume my people as they consume bread;(C1)
they do not call on the Lord.(C2)
5 Then(F1) they will be filled with dread,
for God is with those who are(F2) righteous.(C1)6 You sinners frustrate the plans of the oppressed,(C1)
but the Lord is his refuge.(C2)
7 Oh, that Israel’s deliverance would come from Zion!
When the Lord restores the fortunes of his people,(F1)
let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.(C1)
