The KJV and Hebrew columns present Psalm 25 \u2014 an acrostic petition attributed to David in which the speaker asks God for guidance along divine paths, mercy for youthful sins, deliverance from enemies, and instruction in the covenant \u2014 while the Septuagint and Vulgate columns present what Protestant tradition numbers as Psalm 26 (a plea for vindication grounded in the speaker's integrity and separation from the wicked), reflecting the well-known one-number offset between Masoretic and Greek/Latin psalm numbering systems. The document's distinctive feature is its layered scholarly apparatus: Strong's numbers embedded in the KJV enable direct lookup of the underlying Hebrew lexemes, making this primarily a tool for comparative textual study rather than devotional reading. It makes no interpretive argument of its own but implicitly invites readers to notice how key theological vocabulary \u2014 *hesed* (mercy/lovingkindness), the divine name, covenant, and the \"way\" of God \u2014 is rendered differently across traditions. It would be of interest to biblical scholars, translators, seminarians, or anyone engaged in original-language study of the Hebrew Bible's poetic texts.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Psalms: Psalms 25","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":849}
