New Testament with Psalms

[classica87]

Hi everyone!

I’ve recently started looking for a Psalms and New Testament Bible I can use for morning meditation. During mental prayer I usually use only the New Testament and/or Psalms, so I was hoping to find a copy that’s a little more functional for that purpose. I have a full Bible, but it’s unwieldy without a table, especially in chapel or Adoration.

Can anyone recommend a good Psalms/New Testament Bible? I know Catholic Book Publishing Company makes a few pocket New Testaments, but I don’t believe they have the Psalms, and I don’t want all the extra prayers in the back.

I know Ignatius has one in the RSV-2CE, and I was thinking about that one. If anyone else has a better suggestion, I’d be glad to hear it. I like the RSV-CE and the NABRE the best, but I’d be happy to consider other versions if they’re readable and good for devotional purposes.

Thank you!

If you learn how to pray the Liturgy of the Hours, you’ll be praying the Psalms and New Testament Readings at each hour of the Divine Office.

I actually pray the Office five times daily. Love it! But, it can never replace my meditation.

Well, you can get a New Testament, or a book of just Psalms.

I’ve never seen a book with Psalms and New Testament exclusively together.

I have the Ignatius. RSV-2CE version in bonded leather and it is very nice. It uses the same print size as the regular RSV-2CE. The NT portion is in two column print, but the Psalms are in the single column format!
