Psalm 14

TO THE CHIEF MUSICIAN, A PSALM OF DAVID.

1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.

They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

2 The LORD 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 gone aside, they are all together become filthy:

there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge?

who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

5 There were they in great fear:

for God is in the generation of the righteous.

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

7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!

when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jac

ob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
