Psalms 14
The fool hath said in his heart, {a} [There is] no God. They are {b} corrupt, they have done abominable works, [there is] none that doeth good. (a) He shows that the cause of all wickedness if forgetting God. (b) There is nothing but disorder and wickedness among them. They are {c} all gone aside, they are [all] together become filthy: [there is] none that doeth good, no, not one. (c) David here makes comparisons between the faithful and the reprobate, but Paul speaks the same of all men naturally, Ro 3:10. {d} There were they in great fear: for God [is] in the generation of the righteous. (d) Where they think themselves most sure. Ye have {e} shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD [is] his refuge. (e) You mock them who put their trust in God. Oh that the salvation of {f} Israel [were come] out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, [and] Israel shall be glad. (f) He prays for the whole Church whom he is assured God will deliver: for no one else but he can do it.
