Psalms 152 to 155 are additional Psalms found in the Syriac Peshitta, in Greek Septuagint manuscripts, and in the Qumran scrolls: 11QPs(a)154,155.

- "The Prayer of Hezekiah when enemies surrounded him."
- "When the People obtained permission from Cyrus to return home."
- "Spoken by David when he was contending with the lion and the wolf which took a sheep from his flock."
- "Spoken by David when returning thanks to God, who had delivered him from the lion and the wolf and he had slain both of them."
