Psalms 14

1 [For the Chief Musician. By David.] The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt. They do abominable works. There is none who does good.

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 looks down from heaven on the descendants of Adam, to see if there are any who are wise, who seek after God.

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

3 They have all turned away. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

4 Have all evildoers no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread? They do not call on the LORD.

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon Yhwh.

5 There they are utterly terrified, for God is in the generation of the righteous.

There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.

6 You would frustrate the plans of the lowly, but the LORD is his refuge.

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

7 Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion. When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, may Jacob rejoice, may Israel be glad.

Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when Yhwh bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
