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

1 The impious hath said in his heart - There is no God! They have acted corruptly, they have done an abominable deed, there is none that doeth good. 2 Yahweh, out of the heavens, looked down over the sons of men, - to see whether there was one that showed wisdom, enquiring after God: - 3 The whole, have turned aside, Together have they become tainted, - There is none that doeth good, not so much as, one!

4 Are all the workers of iniquity, without knowledge? devouring my people as they devour food! Upon Yahweh, have they not called.

5 There have they been in great dread, because, God, is in the circle of the righteous man. 6 The purpose of the poor, ye would put to shame, because, Yahweh, is his refuge.

7 Oh that, out of Zion, were granted the salvation of Israel! When Yahweh bringeth back the captives of his people, Jacob, shall exult, Israel, be glad.

1 O Yahweh! Who shall be a guest in thy tent? Who shall abide in thy holy mountain?
