Psalmorum 14

1 In finem, Psalmus David. Dixit insipiens in corde suo: Non est Deus. Corrupti sunt, et abominabiles facti sunt in studiis suis: non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.

The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that does good.

2 Dominus de cælo prospexit super filios hominum, ut videat si est intelligens, aut requirens Deum.

The LORD looked down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.

3 Omnes declinaverunt, simul inutiles facti sunt: non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.

They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that does good, no, not one.

4 Sepulchrum patens est guttur eorum: linguis suis dolose agebant, venenum aspidum sub labiis eorum. Quorum os maledictione et amaritudine plenum est:

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not on the LORD.

5 veloces pedes eorum ad effundendum sanguinem. Contritio et infelicitas in viis eorum, et viam pacis non cognoverunt:

There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.

6 non est timor Dei ante oculos eorum.

You have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.

7 Nonne cognoscent omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, qui devorant plebem meam sicut escam panis? Dominum non invocaverunt, illic trepidaverunt timore, ubi non erat timor. Quoniam Dominus in generatione iusta est, consilium inopis confudistis, quoniam Dominus spes eius est. Quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israel? cum averterit Dominus captivitatem plebis suæ, exultabit Iacob, et lætabitur Israel.

Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD brings back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
