Psalms 14:3
1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt; their acts are vile. There is no one who does good.
2 The LORD looks down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if any understand, if any seek God.
All have turned away, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
4 Will the workers of iniquity never learn? They devour my people like bread; they refuse to call upon the LORD.
5 There they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is in the company of the righteous.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
