Psalms 14

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.

1A psalm for David. Lord, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle? or who shall rest in thy holy hill?

1The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works; There is none that doeth good.

1To the Overseer. --By David. A fool hath said in his heart, `God is not;' They have done corruptly, They have done abominable actions, There is not a doer of good.

2Jehovah looked down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there were any that did understand, That did seek after God.

2He that walketh without blemish, and worketh justice:

2Jehovah looked down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there were any that did understand, That did seek after God.

2Jehovah from the heavens Hath looked on the sons of men, To see if there is a wise one--seeking God.

3They are all gone aside; they are together become filthy; There is none that doeth good, no, not one.

3He that speaketh truth in his heart, who hath not used deceit in his tongue: Nor hath done evil to his neighbour: nor taken up a reproach against his neighbours.

3They are all gone aside; they are together become filthy; There is none that doeth good, no, not one.

3The whole have turned aside, Together they have been filthy: There is not a doer of good, not even one.

4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, Who eat up my peopleasthey eat bread, And call not upon Jehovah?

4In his sight the malignant is brought to nothing: but he glorifieth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his neighbour, and deceiveth not;

4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, Who eat up my peopleasthey eat bread, And call not upon Jehovah?

4Have all working iniquity not known? Those consuming my people have eaten bread, Jehovah they have not called.

5There were they in great fear; For God is in the generation of the righteous.

5He that hath not put out his money to usury, nor taken bribes against the innocent: He that doth these things, shall not be moved for ever.

5There were they in great fear; For God is in the generation of the righteous.

5There they have feared a fear, For God <FI>is<Fi> in the generation of the righteous.
