Numbering varies for both the Psalms and verses within them. The Hebrew system is used as the main reference.
(References in parentheses) are Protestant variants, which in some Psalms exclude introductory descriptions such as author, occasion, or type. Numbers of following verses in these cases are less than those of the Hebrew counterparts.
[References in brackets] are Vulgate (Catholic) variants. They treat Hebrew Psalm 10 as part of Psalm 9; Psalms 10-146 are therefore numbered one less than their counterparts in other systems. Psalms 146 and 147 are parts of Hebrew Psalm 147 and share a single sequence of verse numbers.
