Chonak, have just had a look at the Parish Book of Psalms but that’s not quite what I was looking for as it doesn’t have the full text of each psalm response listed.
Bobby, if you could post your listing, I’d be very grateful.
As I go through the year and try to consolidate things, it’s just surprised me that we don’t have these kinds of tools available. I know you can do everything manually, but having just done a full audit of which psalms are the same for Sundays and Feasts across Years A, B and C, I must confess I’m a bit over it!!
Does anyone know the sources for psalm responses and how these differ between translations? I once thought that the responses had been written by ICEL and the psalm text was whatever the local episcopal conference had settled upon, but a quick survey of things happening internationally shows I was mistaken.
Source is the Ordo Lectionum Missae, which is also the source for the psalm verse assignment. Vernacular is produced the same way as the rest of the lectionary for a given language group or conference.
