Psalm 14

Human Wickedness

1 Fools say to themselves,

“There is no God!”

They are all corrupt,

and they have done terrible things;

there is no one who does what is right.

2 The Lord looks down from heaven at us humans

to see if there are any who are wise,

any who worship him.

3 But they have all gone wrong;

they are all equally bad.

Not one of them does what is right,

not a single one.

4 “Don’t they know?” asks the Lord.

“Are all these evildoers ignorant?

They live by robbing my people,

and they never pray to me.”

5 But then they will be terrified,

for God is with those who obey him.

6 Evildoers frustrate the plans of the humble,

but the Lord is their protection.

7 How I pray that victory

will come to Israel from Zion.

How happy the people of Israel will be

when the Lord makes them prosperous again!
