CHAP. XIV.

1 Dauid describeth the corruption of a naturall man. 4 He conuinceth the wicked by the light of their conscience. 7 He glorieth in the saluation of God.

¹ [To the chiefe musician, A Psalme of Dauid.] The foole hath sayd in his heart, There is no God: they are corrupt, they haue done abominable workes, there is none that doeth good.¹

² The Lord looked downe from heauen vpon the children of men; to see if there were any that did vnderstand and seeke God.²

³ They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no not one.³

⁴ Haue all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eate vp my people as they eate bread, and call not vpon the Lord.

⁵ There were they in great feare; for God is in the generation of the righteous.⁵

⁶ You haue shamed the counsell of the poore; because the Lord is his refuge.

⁷ O that the saluation of Israel were come out of Sion! when the Lord bringeth backe the captiuitie of his people, Iacob shall reioyce, and Israel shalbe glad.⁷
