תהילים ידPsalms 14

For the leader. Of David.The scoundrel thinks,“God does not care.” Human deeds are corrupt and loathsome;no one does good.

GOD looks down from heaven on humankindto find someone with understanding,someone mindful of God.

All have turned bad,altogether foul;there is no one who does good,not even one.

Are they so witless, all those evildoers,who devour my people as they devour food,and do not invoke GOD?

There they will be seized with fright,for God is present in the circle of the righteous.

You may set at naught the counsel of the lowly,but GOD is their refuge.

O that the deliverance of Israel might come from Zion!When GOD restores the fortunes of this covenanted people,Jacob will exult, Israel will rejoice.
