Psalm 14:1–3

The Fool Says, There Is No God

To the choirmaster. Of David.

1  zThe fool says in his heart, a“There is no God.”

They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds;

bthere is none who does good.

2  The Lord looks down from heaven on the children of man,

to see if there are any who understand,1

who seek after God.

3  They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt;

cthere is none who does good,

not even one.


Psalm 53:1–3

There Is None Who Does Good

To the choirmaster: according to jMahalath. A Maskil1 of David.

1  kThe fool says in his heart, l“There is no God.”

They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity;

mthere is none who does good.

2  God looks down from heaven

on the children of man

to see if there are any who understand,2

who seek after God.

3  They have all fallen away;

together they have become corrupt;

nthere is none who does good,

not even one.
