Psalms 120

Ge'ez original · 7 verses · some words can be tapped for a gloss

← ch. 119ch. 121 →
📖 This chapter exists in 3 other originals — side by side (Hebrew Old Testament, Septuagint, Vulgate)
⚠️ Psalms use Masoretic (Hebrew) numbering, which differs from printed Vulgate and Septuagint editions: Ps 120 here = Ps 119 in print. Convert before citing a printed edition.
ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.
