Psalms 14

To the director: A song of David.

1 Only fools think there is no God.
    People like that are evil and do terrible things.
    They never do what is right.

2 The Lord looks down from heaven
    to see if there is anyone who is wise,
    anyone who looks to him for help.
3 But everyone has gone the wrong way.
    Everyone has turned bad.
No one does anything good.
    No, not one person!

4 Those who are evil treat my people like bread to be eaten.
    And they never ask for the Lord's help.
    Don't they know what they are doing?
5 They will have plenty to fear,
    because God is with those who do what is right.
6 You wicked people want to spoil the hopes of the poor,
    but the Lord will protect them.

7 I wish the one who lives on Mount Zion
    would bring victory to Israel!
When the Lord makes his people successful again,
    the people of Jacob will be happy;
    the people of Israel will be glad.
