Artscroll not reliable[edit]

The idea that Psalm 14 refers to the destruction of one temple and 53 to another is not something you would find either in the Psalms themselves or in mainstream academic commentary on the Psalms. "The Artscroll Tehillim," which is the source cited here, is not what Wikipedia policy would refer to as a reliable source. 66.209.137.56 (talk) 22:28, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Was Paul quoting from this psalm in Romans, or the Septuagint Psalm 13?[edit]

The article states: "Like Psalm 14, it is quoted in Paul the Apostle's Epistle to the Romans, where Paul uses portions as a base to discuss original sin. " However, if we look at the passage he is quoting, it matches pretty close with the Septuagint version of Psalms 14 (13 LXX2012)

They are all gone out of the way, they are together become good for nothing, there is none that does good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood: destruction and misery are in their ways; and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.

I have compared the Greek to the Greek in Romans and found the two to be identical, however, I noticed my Greek New Testament attributes the quote to several Psalms, including this one. I have yet to find a Scholar who says this, however, so I will not make any changes till a credible source is found. --JohnpaulÞ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.7.135.114 (talk) 17:41, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
