Expositions on the Book of Psalms (VOL 6 - Psalms 126-150), by Saint Augustine of Hippo (354 - 430)
These sermons on the Psalms of the Holy Prophet and King David are as poetic as the Psalms themselves. They are well-suited for inspirational and devotional listening. This is the last of six volumes.
(Summary by The Reader)
Source text (please read only from this text!): https://archive.org/details/expositionsonboo39augu/page/n5/mode/2up

If your recording is not completed by the deadline, your claim may be reassigned at the BC's discretion.

Claiming sections: Look in the Magic Window below for the list of available sections. Post a reply in this thread asking for the section you would like to record.

Our DPL will be MagdaleneMiller. (I'll pitch in as needed.)

Readers, please note that proof-listening will be "special," not "word perfect." The DPL will listen with the written text and be looking for such errors as change the meaning. Thank you all in advance!

Peace be with you,

Greetings all! The MW is now ready for readers to claim sections!

Also, as this is a challenging project, we ask that new readers claim no more than two sections to begin.

Peace be with you,

Hello, and welcome to LibriVox! First, before claiming a section, please complete the test recording process. Then, because this project is quite challenging, I suggest that you do a few shorter and simpler readings before trying these. And, then, after that, please sign up for only one section here, to see how this project suits you. So, I'll be looking forward to hearing from you again when you have done all of the above. Thanks and best wishes!

Peace be with you,
Sister

Section 38 is yours. The MW has been updated. Thank you!
btw: the file name will contain the section number, not the psalm number.

Peace be with you,

Thank you!

Btw, your description says "VOL 5." and needs to be changed to VOL 6 for readers.

I have completed section 3

Thank you! My apologies for being late to join you here. I didn't realize that I wasn't subscribed to Volume 6... :roll: I should be back on track now though. Looking forward to this project! Going forward I will do my best to keep up the pace. :D
