Psalm 14:2

A Portrait Of Sinners

¹ To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God! They acted corruptly; they have done abominable works, there is none who does good. ² Jehovah looked down from Heaven on the sons of men, to see if there were any who understood and sought God. ³ All have gone aside, together they are filthy; there is none who does good, no, not one.
