The fool says in his heart,
"There is no GOD."
They are corrupt, their deeds are vile;
there is no one who does good.
THE LORD looks down from heaven
on the sons of men
to see if there are any who understand,
any who seek GOD.
All have turned aside,
they have together become corrupt;
there is no one who does good,
not even one.
Will evildoers never learn--
those who devour my people as men eat bread
and who do not call on THE LORD?
There they are, overwhelmed with dread,
for GOD is present in the company of the righteous.
You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor,
but THE LORD is their refuge.
Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When THE LORD restores the fortunes of HIS people,
let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
The Book of Psalms: Psalm 14
