The Psalms In All American Catholic Liturgy Might Change- Thank Monks In Missouri

Missouri Catholics seem to be busy little beavers are over the place.

Now we learn that thanks to deem pending Vatian Approval , there will be a new translation of the Psalter will be the official translation used in the Lectionary, the Liturgy of the Hours, the texts for all books of the Sacraments, etc.

The Catholic Key Blog has the the details and how it effects the Catholic in the pews at Grail Psalter - Made in Missouri and an example of a change here at Grail Psalter Preview

On a cynical note I am sure that the Bishops Conference is happy since this no doubt will entail Parishes and others having to buy new Liturgy book stuff which I guess they get a percentage of.

I also guess many of us that pray the Office will be updating and buying new sets of the Liturgy of the Hours if this is approved.

Perhaps the Bishops can get these Monks busy on a new approved English Translation of the Scripture to replace the horrid New American Bible we USA Catholics are stuck with.
