Psalms 14

NEW JERUSALEM	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 [For the choirmaster Of David] The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.' Their deeds arecorrupt and vile, not one of them does right.	1 A Psalm of David. O Lord, who will dwell in your tabernacle? Or who will rest on your holy mountain?
2 Yahweh looks down from heaven at the children of Adam. To see if a single one is wise, a single oneseeks God.	2 He who walks without blemish and who works justice.
3 Al have turned away, all alike turned sour, not one of them does right, not a single one.	3 He who speaks the truth in his heart, who has not acted deceitfully with his tongue, and has not done evil to his neighbor, and has not taken up a reproach against his neighbors.
4 Are they not aware, all these evil-doers? They are devouring my people, this is the bread they eat, andthey never call to Yahweh.	4 In his sight, the malicious one has been reduced to nothing, but he glorifies those who fear the Lord. He who swears to his neighbor and does not deceive.
5 They wil be gripped with fear, where there is no need for fear, for God takes the side of the upright;	5 He who has not given his money in usury, nor accepted bribes against the innocent. He who does these things will be undisturbed for eternity.
6 you may mock the plans of the poor, but Yahweh is their refuge.
7 Who wil bring from Zion salvation for Israel? When Yahweh brings his people home, what joy forJacob, what happiness for Israel!
