Psalm 14

New Living Translation NLT

1 Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good!

2 The LORD looks down from heaven on the entire human race; he looks to see if anyone is truly wise, if anyone seeks God.

3 But no, all have turned away; all have become corrupt. No one does good, not a single one!

4 Will those who do evil never learn? They eat up my people like bread and wouldn’t think of praying to the LORD .

5 Terror will grip them, for God is with those who obey him.

6 The wicked frustrate the plans of the oppressed, but the LORD will protect his people.

7 Who will come from Mount Zion to rescue Israel? When the LORD restores his people, Jacob will shout with joy, and Israel will rejoice.

Common English Bible CEB

1 Fools say in their hearts, There is no God. They are corrupt and do evil things; not one of them does anything good.

2 The LORD looks down from heaven on humans to see if anyone is wise, to see if anyone seeks God,

3 but all of them have turned bad. Everyone is corrupt. No one does good— not even one person!

4 Are they dumb, all these evildoers, devouring my people like they are eating bread but never calling on the LORD?

5 Count on it: they will be in utter panic because God is with the righteous generation.

6 You evildoers may humiliate the plans of those who suffer, but the LORD is their refuge.

7 Let Israel's salvation come out of Zion! When the LORD changes his people's circumstances for the better, Jacob will rejoice; Israel will celebrate!
