Psalm 53
53
The Folly and Wickedness of Men
(Psalm 14.1-7)
To the chief Musician upon Ma´halath, Maschil, A Psalm of David.
1 #
Rom 3.10-12. The fool hath said in his heart,
There is no God.
Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity:
there is none that doeth good.
2God looked down from heaven upon the children of men,
to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
3Every one of them is gone back:
they are altogether become filthy;
there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge?
who eat up my people as they eat bread:
they have not called upon God.
5There were they in great fear, where no fear was:
for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee:
thou hast put them to shame,
because God hath despised them.
6Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!
When God bringeth back the captivity of his people,
Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

Psalms 53
53
Folly of the Godless, and the Restoration of Israel
To the Chief Musician. Set to “Mahalath.” A Contemplation of David.
1The #Ps. 10:4fool has said in his heart,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity;
#Rom. 3:10–12There is none who does good.
2God looks down from heaven upon the children of men,
To see if there are any who understand, who #(2 Chr. 15:2)seek God.
3Every one of them has turned aside;
They have together become corrupt;
There is none who does good,
No, not one.
4Have the workers of iniquity #Jer. 4:22no knowledge,
Who eat up my people as they eat bread,
And do not call upon God?
5#Lev. 26:17, 36; Prov. 28:1There they are in great fear
Where no fear was,
For God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you;
You have put them to shame,
Because God has despised them.
6#Ps. 14:7Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When God brings back the captivity of His people,
Let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad.
