They are corrupt, they have committed detestable acts;
There is no one who does good.
14:2 The LORD has looked down from heaven upon the sons of mankind
To see if there are any who ①understand,
Who seek God.
▷ ①Or act wisely
14:3 They have all turned aside, together they are corrupt;
There is no one who does good, not even one.
14:4 Do all the workers of injustice not know,
Who devour my people as they eat bread,
And do not call upon the LORD?
14:5 There they are in great dread,
For God is with a righteous generation.
14:6 You would put to shame the plan of the poor,
But the LORD is his refuge.
14:7 Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When the LORD restores the fortunes of His people,
Jacob will rejoice, Israel will be glad.
