Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of English and Germanic Philology, Vol. 14 AS a result of these continued labors Luther began the Psalm translation in a Spirit somewhat different from that in which he went at the other parts of the Bible. He knew the Psalms thor oughly; they had become part of his daily life. His knowledge of the languages gave him the means Of entering into a linguistic study of the various texts and versions. Much of the Psalter had been translated by him before, and much of it he knew by heart in Latin and in German. The result Of all this was a confidence which Job, for instance, did not instill. Coupled with this confidence was the determination to give his people a better version of the Psalter than the earlier ones had been.
