  • Psalm 151 is the name given colloquially to a short psalm which is found in most copies of the Septuagint (Greek language translation of the Bible) but not in the Hebrew text. It was found at Qumran: 11QPs(a)151. However, the title given to this psalm in the Septuagint ("This Psalm is ascribed to David and is outside the number. When he slew Goliath in single combat." [1]) indicates that it is supernumerary, and no number is affixed to it. Most Biblical scholars consider it to be an addition by the compilers and translators of the Septuagint.
  • De 150 psalmen die in Nederlandse vertalingen van de Bijbel het boek Psalmen vormen, volgen de tekst en nummering van de Hebreeuwse Bijbel, de Tenach. In de Septuagint is echter sprake van een extra psalm, psalm 151, die niet in de Tenach is opgenomen. In de Dode Zeerollen is de oorspronkelijke Hebreeuwse tekst van deze psalm teruggevonden (samen met nog enkele andere, daarvoor nog onbekende psalmen).

abstract
  • De 150 psalmen die in Nederlandse vertalingen van de Bijbel het boek Psalmen vormen, volgen de tekst en nummering van de Hebreeuwse Bijbel, de Tenach. In de Septuagint is echter sprake van een extra psalm, psalm 151, die niet in de Tenach is opgenomen. In de Dode Zeerollen is de oorspronkelijke Hebreeuwse tekst van deze psalm teruggevonden (samen met nog enkele andere, daarvoor nog onbekende psalmen). Het opschrift boven de psalm noemt David als de auteur ervan. De betrouwbaarheid van dit opschrift is niet meer te achterhalen, maar de psalm moet in verband met de datering van de Septuagint in elk geval ontstaan zijn vóór de tweede of derde eeuw voor het begin van onze jaartelling.
  • Psalm 151 is the name given colloquially to a short psalm which is found in most copies of the Septuagint (Greek language translation of the Bible) but not in the Hebrew text. It was found at Qumran: 11QPs(a)151. However, the title given to this psalm in the Septuagint ("This Psalm is ascribed to David and is outside the number. When he slew Goliath in single combat." [1]) indicates that it is supernumerary, and no number is affixed to it. Most Biblical scholars consider it to be an addition by the compilers and translators of the Septuagint. The title of the psalm indicates that it was written by King David after his battle with Goliath. The text expresses how David was the least of his brothers, and yet God chose him to be anointed king. It goes on to commemorate how David killed Goliath with the Philistine's own sword. Eastern Christianity accepts Psalm 151 as canonical. Roman Catholics, Protestants and most Jews consider it apocryphal. However, it is found in an appendix in some Catholic Bibles, such as certain editions of the Latin Vulgate, as well as in some ecumenical translations, such as the NRSV.
