About this Edition
The Psalter of David in the Coverdale Translation
The Psalter, or Psalms of David, as it appears in this edition, is printed from the American Book of Common Prayer of 1928, retaining the Coverdale translation that hath accompanied the daily worship of the English Church since the first Prayer Book of 1549. The Psalms are pointed for chanting, divided for monthly recitation in thirty days; the half-verse mark, an asterisk, showeth the mediation at which the voice pauseth before proceeding to the second part.
This reading edition is prepared for personal devotion and for the use of New Every Morning Anglican Fellowship. The text is set from a faithful transcription of the 1928 Coverdale Psalter.
Conventions
Each Psalm is set forth with its Latin incipit, after the ancient custom. Verses are numbered according to the Prayer Book pointing, with the opening verse unnumbered by custom and the half-verse mark * indicating the mediation. The Gloria Patri is appended to each Psalm as required by the rubric.
The site is fully operable by keyboard, supports day and night reading modes (which are remembered between visits), and is suitable for printing in chapter or in single Psalms.
