Also, there's one psalm missing a bit in standard translations but restorable from the Dead Sea scrolls (it's acrostic, so the omission is hard to question). Does this get a new verse number or just 14b?
Several non-canonical psalms were found at Qumran. One of these seems to be an enlarged variant of what is included in the Septuagint as "Psalm 151" or a psalm "outside the number". It is supposed to have been composed by david after he killed Goliath. Both versions are included in the Oxford Annotated RSV & NRSV with Apocrypha.
