PSAL. XIV. To the chief musician, A Psalm of David. (Book 14)

That there is not a God, the fool doth in his heart conclude: They are corrupt, their works are vile, not one of them doth good. Upon mens sons the Lord from heavenLine 2 did cast his eyes abroad; To see if any understood, and did seek after God.
They altogether filthy are,Line 3 they all aside are gone: And there is none that doeth good, yea, sure there is not one. These workers of iniquityLine 4 do they not know at all, That they my people eat as bread, and on God do not call?
