Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psalms in Modern Speech and Rhythmical Form In a translation which attempts to be faithful, this is not easy for it frequently happens that one Hebrew word demands for its adequate, or at any rate for its literal, interpretation six or even more English words; and probably no translation which was narrowly faithful could invariably produce its effect within lines so Short and with accents so few as those which characterize the Hebrew original. At the same time I have sought to reproduce, or at least to suggest, something of its music and cadence, and to convey an impression not only of its Spirit, but also of its form.
