14:1 Fools say in
their hearts, "There is no God." They are
corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is no
one who does good.
14:2 The LORD looks down
from heaven on humankind to see if there are any
who are wise, who seek after God.
14:3 They have all gone
astray, they are all alike perverse; there is no
one who does good, no, not one.
14:4 Have they no
knowledge, all the evildoers who eat up my
people as they eat bread, and do not call upon
the LORD?
14:5 There they shall be
in great terror, for God is with the company of
the righteous.
14:6 You would confound
the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their
refuge.
14:7 O that deliverance
for Israel would come from Zion! When the LORD
restores the fortunes of his people, Jacob will
rejoice; Israel will be glad.
