Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.
Darby Translation
Psalms 14
1To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is noGod. They have corrupted themselves, they have done abominable works: there is none that doeth good. 2Jehovah looked down from the heavens upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seekGod. 3They have all gone aside, they are together become corrupt: there is none that doeth good, not even one. 4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, eating up my people [as] they eat bread? They call not upon Jehovah. 5There were they in great fear; forGod is in the generation of the righteous. 6Ye have shamed the counsel of the afflicted, because Jehovah [was] his refuge. 7Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When Jehovah turneth again the captivity of his people, Jacob shall be glad, Israel shall rejoice.
