The KJV and Tanakh columns contain **Psalm 90**, the \"Prayer of Moses,\" which meditates on God's eternal nature versus human transience \u2014 its celebrated images include a thousand years being as a single day and a human lifespan of \"threescore years and ten\" \u2014 and closes with petitions for divine favor and the establishment of human work. The Septuagint and Vulgate columns contain **Psalm 91**, the anonymous psalm of divine protection promising that angels will guard the faithful, that thousands will fall at their side unharmed, and that God will answer when called \u2014 the passage later cited in the Gospel accounts of Christ's temptation. The pairing is itself a clue to a distinctive scholarly concern: the LXX/Vulgate numbering system runs one behind the Hebrew/Protestant numbering through much of the psalter, so what is Psalm 91 in MT/KJV corresponds to Psalm 90 in the LXX/Vulgate \u2014 the document implicitly illustrates this canonical numbering discrepancy by placing these two psalms in adjacent columns.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Psalms: Psalms 90","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":926}
