Psalms 14

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAINNEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 A Psalm of David. O Lord, who will dwell in your tabernacle? Or who will rest on your holy mountain?1 For the leader. Of David. Fools say in their hearts, "There is no God." Their deeds are loathsome and corrupt; not one does what is right.
2 He who walks without blemish and who works justice.2 The LORD looks down from heaven upon the human race, To see if even one is wise, if even one seeks God.
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.3 All have gone astray; all alike are perverse. Not one does what is right, not even one.
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.4 Will these evildoers never learn? They devour my people as they devour bread; they do not call upon the LORD.
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.5 They have good reason, then, to fear; God is with the company of the just.
6 They would crush the hopes of the poor, but the poor have the LORD as their refuge.
7 Oh, that from Zion might come the deliverance of Israel, That Jacob may rejoice, and Israel be glad when the LORD restores his people!
