- Kapitel 14 -

The fool says there is no God

(Psalm 53:1-6; Isaiah 59:1-17; Romans 3:9-20)

To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The foole hath said in his heart, There is no God: they haue corrupted, and done an abominable worke: there is none that doeth good.

The Lord looked downe from heauen vpon the children of men, to see if there were any that would vnderstand, and seeke God.

All are gone out of the way: they are all corrupt: there is none that doeth good, no not one.

Doe not all the workers of iniquitie know that they eate vp my people, as they eate bread? they call not vpon the Lord.

There they shall be taken with feare, because God is in the generation of the iust.

You haue made a mocke at the counsell of the poore, because the Lord is his trust.

Oh giue saluation vnto Israel out of Zion: when the Lord turneth the captiuitie of his people, then Iaakob shall reioyce, and Israel shall be glad.

The fool says there is no God

(Psalm 53:1-6; Isaiah 59:1-17; Romans 3:9-20)

The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt. They have done abominable deeds. There is no one who does good.

The LORD looked down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who understood, who sought after God.

They have all gone aside. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

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

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

You frustrate the plan of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.

Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
