Psalmorum 14

1 Psalmus David, in finem. Dixit insipiens in corde suo: Non est Deus. Corrupti sunt, et abominabiles facti sunt in studiis suis: non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.

To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David. 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 Dominus de caelo prospexit super filios hominum, ut videat si est intelligens, aut requirens Deum.

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

3 Omnes declinaverunt, simul inutiles facti sunt: non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum. Sepulchrum patens est guttur eorum: linguis suis dolose agebant, venenum aspidum sub labiis eorum. Quorum os maledictione et amaritudine plenum est: veloces pedes eorum ad effundendum sanguinem. Contritio et infelicitas in viis eorum, et viam pacis non cognoverunt: non est timor Dei ante oculos eorum.

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

4 Nonne cognoscent omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, qui devorant plebem meam sicut escam panis?

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

5 Dominum non invocaverunt, illic trepidaverunt timore, ubi non erat timor.

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

6 Quoniam Dominus in generatione iusta est, consilium inopis confudistis, quoniam Dominus spes eius est.

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

7 Quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israel? cum averterit Dominus captivitatem plebis suae, exultabit Iacob, et laetabitur Israel.

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