The KJV and Hebrew columns present Psalm 80 \u2014 a communal lament of Asaph petitioning God, the \"Shepherd of Israel,\" to restore a nation in distress, built around the extended allegory of Israel as a vine transplanted from Egypt that now lies ruined and exposed. The Septuagint and Vulgate columns present what KJV numbers as Psalm 81 \u2014 a festival call to worship in which God rebukes Israel for ignoring divine commandments since the Exodus. The distinctive feature of the layout is that it implicitly illustrates the well-known psalter numbering discrepancy between the Hebrew/Protestant tradition and the Greek/Latin Catholic tradition: what is Psalm 80 in KJV is Psalm 79 in the LXX, so the four columns are not showing the same psalm but rather adjacent ones that land on the same number depending on which counting system is used. This would primarily interest biblical scholars, seminarians, or translators comparing textual traditions, manuscript variants, or the historical divergence between Masoretic and Alexandrian psalm numbering.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Psalms: Psalms 80","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":966}
