Psalms 14

1David describeth the general corruption of mankind. 7He wisheth to see the salvation of God.


0 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

    1 THE fool ahath said in his heart, There is no God. bThey are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

    2 The cLORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.

    3 They are all dgone aside, they are all together become 1filthy: there is enone that doeth good, no, not one.

    4 fHave all the workers of iniquity gno knowledge? who heat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

    5 iThere 2were they in great fear: for jGod is in the generation of the righteous.

    6 Ye have kshamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.

    7 3Oh that the lsalvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD mbringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
