Psalm 52 in VUL = Psalm 53 in RV1909.

VUL Clementine Vulgate
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 In finem, pro Maëleth intelligentiæ David. [Dixit insipiens in corde suo: Non est Deus.
·
2 Corrupti sunt, et abominabiles facti sunt in iniquitatibus; non est qui faciat bonum.
53:1 Al Músico principal: sobre Mahalath: Masquil de David. DIJO el necio en su corazón: No hay Dios. Corrompiéronse é hicieron abominable maldad: no hay quien haga bien.
3 Deus de cælo prospexit super filios hominum, ut videat si est intelligens, aut requirens Deum.
53:2 Dios desde los cielos miró sobre los hijos de los hombres, por ver si hay algún entendido que busque á Dios.
4 Omnes declinaverunt; simul inutiles facti sunt: non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.
53:3 Cada uno se había vuelto atrás; todos se habían corrompido: no hay quien haga bien, no hay ni aun uno.
5 Nonne scient omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, qui devorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?
53:4 ¿No tienen conocimiento todos esos que obran iniquidad? que comen á mi pueblo [como si] comiesen pan: á Dios no han invocado.
6 Deum non invocaverunt; illic trepidaverunt timore, ubi non erat timor. Quoniam Deus dissipavit ossa eorum qui hominibus placent: confusi sunt, quoniam Deus sprevit eos.
53:5 Allí se sobresaltaron de pavor donde no había miedo: porque Dios ha esparcido los huesos del que asentó campo contra ti: los avergonzaste, porque Dios los desechó.
7 Quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israël? cum converterit Deus captivitatem plebis suæ, exsultabit Jacob, et lætabitur Israël.]
53:6 ¡Oh quién diese de Sión saludes á Israel! En volviendo Dios la cautividad de su pueblo, gozarse ha Jacob, y alegraráse Israel.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 53.

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

    The title of the Psalm hath: "At the end, understanding of David, when there came Doeg the Edomite and told Saul, David hath come into the house of Abimelech:" whereas we read that he had come into the house of Achimelech.
