The Goodnews Bible - Psalms 14 (GNB)

Psalms Chapter 14 (GNB)

Compare with Version:

¹ Fools say to themselves, "There is no God!" They are all corrupt, and they have done terrible things; there is no one who does what is right.

² The LORD looks down from heaven at us humans to see if there are any who are wise, any who worship him.

³ But they have all gone wrong; they are all equally bad. Not one of them does what is right, not a single one.

⁴ Don't they know?" asks the LORD. "Are all these evildoers ignorant? They live by robbing my people, and they never pray to me.

⁵ But then they will be terrified, for God is with those who obey him.

⁶ Evildoers frustrate the plans of the humble, but the LORD is their protection.

⁷ How I pray that victory will come to Israel from Zion. How happy the people of Israel will be when the LORD makes them prosperous again!
