Psalms Chapter 53

Ps 53:1-6.
5
Untitled
5. Instead of assurances of God's presence with the pious, and a complaint of the wicked,
Ps 14:5, 6
portrays the ruin of the latter, whose "bones" even "are scattered" (compare
Ps 141:7),
and who are put to shame as contemptuously rejected of God.
Ps 53:1-6.
Upon Mahalath--(See on
Ps 88:1,
title). Why this repetition of the fourteenth Psalm is given we do not know.
1-4. with few verbal changes, correspond with
Ps 14:1-4.
