Psalm 14  Legacy Standard Bible

There Is No One Who Does Good

For the choir director. Of David.

14 The [a]wicked fool (A)says in his heart, “There is no God.”
They act corruptly, they commit abominable [b]deeds;
There is (B)no one who does good.
2 Yahweh (C)looks down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there is anyone who [c](D)has insight,
Anyone who (E)seeks after God.
3 They have all (F)turned aside, altogether they have become [d]worthless;
There is (G)no one who does good, not even one.

4 Do all the workers of iniquity (H)not know,
Who (I)eat up my people as they eat bread,
And (J)do not call upon Yahweh?
5 There they are in great dread,
For God is with the (K)righteous generation.
6 You would put to shame the counsel of the afflicted,
But Yahweh is his (L)refuge.

7 Oh, that (M)the salvation of Israel [e]would come out of Zion!
When Yahweh [f](N)restores His captive people,
May Jacob rejoice, may Israel be glad.
