Psalm 14

The inattentive heart says “There is no god.”

This is the corrupted heart, incapable of love,

incapable of gracious action.

The Heavenly One studies mortals

looking to find wisdom; The Holy One is attentive

to those who seek Godde.

All have turned aside. All are contaminated.

There is not one who does good deeds, not even one.

Isn't this the height of ignorance?

We consume bread

which comes from the One we have not called upon.

We live in fear, yet Godde draws near even in this generation.

Our callous attitudes toward the afflicted stink ...

The Holy One is a refuge.

Contemplate the salvation that comes from Mount Zion!

When Godde redeems the people, we rejoice and are glad!
