Psalms 55:15

(15) Let death.—According to the written text we should render desolations upon them. Here we have another sudden outburst of overmastering feeling.

Quick—i.e., alive, perhaps with reminiscence of the fate of Korah. (Comp. Proverbs 1:12.)

Hell.—Sheôl. (See Note Psalms 6:5.)

And among them.—The conjunction is unnecessary. Render, in their dwellings, in their very midst.
