PLEASE NOTE: Numbering of the Psalms differs — mostly by one digit, see table — between the Hebrew (Masoretic) and Greek (Septuagint) manuscripts. Usage varies by tradition:

  • Protestant translations (Lutheran, Anglican, Calvinist) use the Hebrew numbering;
    so do modern Catholic bible editions and books of liturgy, often indicating in brackets the Septuaginta-Vulgata numbering
  • Catholic ancient liturgical books follow the Greek numbering (as do historic Books of Hours etc.)
  • Eastern Orthodox translations use the Greek numbering
  • Syriac Orthodox Church Peshitta tradition recognizes 155 Psalms

In categorizing, the Hebrew numbering should be used.
