On comparing two psalms

This morning, I applied the keyword pattern I have developed to compare word usage between two psalms.  For example below is the comparison between psalms 2 and 149.  One can see that psalm 149 verse 2 uses words from psalm 2 and that the last 3 verses use five of the words in psalm 2 in the same sequence without interruption.  Compared with other psalms (I tried psalms 3, 4, 5, 6, 16) this is a more concentrated usage.  This perhaps confirms Cole's thesis. I need to do a bit more fishing.  This sort of analysis might uncover previously unsuspected inter-textual references.

Words in psalm 149 in the order of word usage in psalm 2 (Note - if I reverse the order, the coherence is lost. This means that psalm 149 is copying psalm 2 and not vice versa).

Word and gloss	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	Vs	Stem

ציון Zion				░						2	ציון
יגילו rejoice								░		2	גיל
במלכם in their king			░							2	מלך
בגוים on the many nations	░									7	גוי
בלאמים for the tribes		░								7	לאם
ברזל durable						░				8	ברזל
משׁפט the judgment							░			9	שׁפט

Let me know whether you would like me to compare two psalms for fun. Here is a comparison of paslms 14 and 53 (45 matching words but I don't have that many columns.)  I am also leaving out some ultra- common words.
