I have frequently been struck by the fact that the Psalms are difficult to read and understand. I am referring to the various existing translations into English. After joining a group that was studying the Psalms, I became so dismayed by the translations we were using that I decided to try my hand at making better ones. By and large, the group was pleased with the results of my efforts and urged me to continue. Later, I decided to translate the entire book and publish it. Along the way, I found myself, at times, in sharp disagreement with the work of other translators, thinking that they were just plain wrong. The most egregious example of this occurs in the last verse of Psalm 137. I also found that other translations of Psalm 101 are insensible and incoherent. They don't clearly indicate what the Psalm is about. On the other hand, other translations have many interesting ideas about the meaning of these texts.
I have been reading and studying Hebrew for 40 years and feel that I have enough of a grasp of the language to provide a sensitive and sensible translation.

I have always had trouble understanding what sort of concepts and images the Psalms were trying to convey. Ronald Barany does a brilliant job at clearing up the difficult language while maintaining the poetry King David perhaps intended. He even puts a title to each psalm so the reader can get an immediate idea of what the psalm is about without having to read each and every one. What's so nice about this translation in comparison to other "modern" translations is that Barany still manages to keep the sense of antiquity using words such as "thou" as part of the poetry. If you're looking for a book of psalms with pretty pictures and a nice cover, you can get that at a much cheaper price. But if you want to understand the text, buy this book. The price is worth it.Product details
