Great Site - thanks - its Psalm 19 isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThanks Don. The Psalm numbering depends on whether you're using the Hebrew or the Latin/Greek Vulgate numbering system. My (European printed) missal has the liturgical / Hebrew numbering, so that's what I'm showing. But yes, it will be a little confusing for American readers.
