Psalms 14:1-6

NCV

NIV

1 Fools say to themselves, "There is no God." Fools are evil and do terrible things; there is no one who does anything good.
1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.
2 The Lord looked down from heaven on all people to see if anyone understood, if anyone was looking to God for help.
2 The LORD looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
3 But all have turned away. Together, everyone has become evil. There is no one who does anything good, not even one.
3 All have turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
4 Don't the wicked understand? They destroy my people as if they were eating bread. They do not ask the Lord for help.
4 Do all these evildoers know nothing? They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on the LORD.
5 But the wicked are filled with terror, because God is with those who do what is right.
5 But there they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is present in the company of the righteous.
6 The wicked upset the plans of the poor, but the Lord will protect them.
6 You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge.
