Psalm 14:2

A Portrait Of Sinners

¹ {To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.} The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted themselves, they have done abominable works: there is none that doeth good. ² Jehovah looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God. ³ They have all gone aside, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one.
