Psalms 14
"To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David." 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, (Romans 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.
