The KJV and Hebrew columns present Psalm 13, the lament of David asking \"How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD?\" \u2014 a six-verse cry of abandonment that resolves into trust in God's mercy. The Septuagint and Vulgate columns, however, present the content of Psalm 14 (or LXX Psalm 13), which opens with \"The fool has said in his heart, There is no God\" and includes a substantially expanded verse 3 \u2014 cataloguing human depravity through vivid imagery of open graves, serpent venom, bloodshed, and godlessness \u2014 material absent from the Hebrew but later quoted by Paul in Romans 3:13\u201318. The distinctive scholarly interest here lies precisely in this textual divergence: the layout implicitly foregrounds how the Greek and Latin traditions preserve additional verses in this psalm that the Hebrew Masoretic text does not contain, a longstanding point of debate in textual criticism and canon history. This resource would be most useful to someone doing comparative biblical study, examining manuscript traditions, or tracing intertextual quotation between the Psalms and the New Testament.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Psalms: Psalms 13","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":530}
