Psalm 14 chanted in the Sarum Use by Sarah James. • Theme: The sentiments of those who say there is no God. The Psalmist asserts that they are corrupt, foolish, abominable, and cruel. God fills them with terror, reproaches them for their oppression of the poor. The Psalmist prays for the restoration of Israel. There is nothing particular in the title; only it is probable that the word לדוד ledavid, of David, is improperly prefixed, as it is sufficiently evident, from the construction of the psalm, that it speaks of the Babylonian captivity. The author, whoever he was, (some say Haggai, others Daniel, etc)., probably lived beyond the Euphrates. He describes here, in fervid colors, the sins of the Chaldeans. He predicts their terror and destruction; he consoles himself with the prospect of a speedy return from his exile; and hopes soon to witness the reunion of the tribes of Israel and Judah. (From the Adam Clarke Commentary, 1831) • Verses 6-8 are present in the Septuagint, the Vulgate, and two Hebrew manuscripts, but missing from the Masoretic text. These missing verses, plus verses 2-3, are quoted in full in Romans 3:13-18 from the Septuagint. The Hebrew of this passage, including verse 3, reads: “They are all gone aside, they are together become filthy. There is none that doeth good, not even one. An open grave is their throat, their tongue speaketh smoothly. Asp venom is under their tongue, whose mouth is full of cursing and deceit. Their feet are swift to shed blood. Misfortune and evil injury are in their ways, and the way of peace have they not known. There is no fear of God before their eyes.” (Wikipedia) • Nine hundred years ago, the Cathedral of Salisbury, England developed a unique form of chant and liturgy known as the “Use of Salisbury,” or “Sarum Use.” Differences from the Roman rite are both melodic (more florid in the Sarum) and textual (Elizabethan English rather than Latin). The best repository of Sarum Use tones is the St. Dunstan's Plainsong Psalter, from which Sarah has sung this psalm.
