Psalm 14

For the Chief Musician. By David.

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.

14:2 Yahweh looked down from heaven on the children of men,

to see if there were any who did understand,

who did seek after God.

14:3 They have all gone aside.

They have together become corrupt.

There is none who does good, no, not one.

14:4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge,

who eat up my people as they eat bread,

and don't call on Yahweh?

14:5 There they were in great fear,

for God is in the generation of the righteous.

14:6 You frustrate the plan of the poor,

because Yahweh is his refuge.

14:7 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.
