Psalm 14:1-Psalm 15:1 - A Portrait Of Sinners

¹ For the choir director. A Psalm of David.
The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, they have committed abominable deeds;
There is no one who does good.
² The Lord has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there are any who understand,
Who seek after God.
³ They have all turned aside, together they have become corrupt;
There is no one who does good, not even one.

⁴ Do all the workers of wickedness not know,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And do not call upon the Lord?

⁵ There they are in great dread,
For God is with the righteous generation.
⁶ You would put to shame the counsel of the afflicted,
But the Lord is his refuge.

⁷ Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When the Lord restores His captive people,
Jacob will rejoice, Israel will be glad.

¹ A Psalm of David.
O Lord, who may abide in Your tent?
Who may dwell on Your holy hill?
