14
Folly and Wickedness of Men.
For the choir director. A Psalm of David.
1 The fool has APs 10:4; 53:1said in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, they have committed abominable 1Lit doingsdeeds;
There is BPs 14:1-3; 130:3; Rom 3:10-12no one who does good.
2 The Loʀᴅ has APs 33:13, 14; 102:19looked down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there are any who 1Or act wiselyBPs 92:6understand,
Who C1 Chr 22:19seek after God.
3 They have all APs 58:3turned aside, together they have become corrupt;
There is BPs 143:2no one who does good, not even one.
4 Do all the workers of wickedness APs 82:5not know,
Who BPs 27:2; Jer 10:25; Mic 3:3eat up my people as they eat bread,
And CPs 79:6; Is 64:7do not call upon the Loʀᴅ?
5 There they are in great dread,
For God is with the APs 73:15; 112:2righteous generation.
6 You would put to shame the counsel of the afflicted,
But the Loʀᴅ is his APs 9:9; 40:17; 46:1; 142:5refuge.
When the Loʀᴅ 2Or restores the fortunes of His peopleBPs 85:1, 2restores His captive people,
Jacob will rejoice, Israel will be glad.
