Psalm 14:1-3 Part 1 of 2

The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good. The LORD looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God. All have turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one. 

The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." 
Psalm 10:4  In his pride the wicked man does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.

The LORD looks down from heaven on all mankind 
Job 41:34  "It (Leviathan) looks down on all that are haughty; it is king over all that are proud."
Psalm 85:11  Faithfulness springs forth from the earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven.
Psalm 102:19-20  "The LORD looked down from his sanctuary on high, from heaven he viewed the earth, to hear the groans of the prisoners and release those condemned to death."
Lamentations 3:49-50  My eyes will flow unceasingly, without relief, until the LORD looks down from heaven and sees.

to see if there are any who understand 
Ezra 6:21  So the Israelites who had returned from the exile ate it (the Passover meal), together with all who had separated themselves from the unclean practices of their Gentile neighbors in order to seek the LORD, the God of Israel.

All have turned away 
1 Samuel 8:3  But his (Samuel's) sons did not follow his ways. They turned aside after dishonest gain and accepted bribes and perverted justice.
1 Timothy 5:15  Some have in fact already turned away to follow Satan.
