Psalm 14
Christian Standard Bible Anglicised
A Portrait of Sinners
For the choir director. Of David.
14 The fool says in his heart, ‘There’s no God.’(A)
They are corrupt; they do vile deeds.
There is no one who does good.
2 The Lord looks down from heaven on the human race[a](B)
to see if there is one who is wise,
one who seeks God.
3 All have turned away;
all alike have become corrupt.
There is no one who does good,
not even one.(C)
4 Will evildoers never understand?
They consume my people as they consume bread;(D)
they do not call on the Lord.(E)
5 Then[b] they will be filled with dread,
for God is with those who are[c] righteous.(F)
6 You sinners frustrate the plans of the oppressed,(G)
but the Lord is his refuge.(H)
7 Oh, that Israel’s deliverance would come from Zion!
When the Lord restores the fortunes of his people,[d]
let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.(I)
