Thanks for everyone's flexibility and patience! I've followed your instructions, and yes I used audacity. Just credit it to "dronald" my screen name here.
I hope I got it right this time. I amplified, exported but selected "constant" this time at 128 kbps. The file name now correctly is 21 instead of the Psalm number 22.
I used the noise reduction tool because my mic was picking up the air conditioning. It did wonders!
I have set up your reader page: https://librivox.org/reader/14683 Here you will find listed all your projects, both active and completed. For now, of course, there's only this one, but hopefully there will be many more to follow. You can get to this page by clicking your name in the MW.
Now, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that your tech specs are all good now! (You could benefit from still one more round of noise cleaning, but it's not too bad as is.)
Now for the bad news. I had a listen to the first few minutes when I was checking your tech specs, and I noticed that you have changed the language from what is printed to a more modern usage. (ex. 0:33 "speaks" instead of speaketh, 1:05 "Why have You forsaken me" instead of Why hast Thou forsaken me) I'm very sorry, but we can't allow changes like this to be made. Here is a link to our text policy: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Recording_%26_Text_Policies The most salient point at the moment is the first line, which reads "You may not change the published text in any way (eg. to remove swear words, language or ideas you find objectionable, or to "update" a text). Our objective is to record texts as they were written." I don't know if you've done this kind of updating throughout the whole recording, but if so, I fear the whole thing will need to be recorded over again. My guess is that there are just too many of these to try to save time by editing this recording.
Aw. You mean I'll have to read St Augustine again!

Great job!
Haha! You are too, too kind! And thank you for the excellent PL!
