Psalm 53 is the 53rd psalm of the Book of Psalms, beginning in English in the King James Version: "The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.". In the slightly different numbering system used in the Greek Septuagint and Latin Vulgate translations of the Bible, this psalm is Psalm 52. In Latin, it is known as "Dixit insipiens in corde suo non est deus",[1] It is described as a maskil or "contemplation of David".[2]

The psalm forms a regular part of Jewish, Catholic, Eastern Orthodox and Protestant liturgies.
