I have prayed and found spiritual blessings from current Liturgy of the Hours (deriving from the reform of the Divine Office by His Holiness Blessed Paul VI). However…

…there is one thing that I don’t like about it: the current cycle omits three entire Psalms (Psalms 57/58, 82/83), and 108/109). Not only that, it omits 59 verses from other Psalms on account of their offensive tone.

For example, Psalm 108/109 contains these difficult words:

9 May his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow. 10 Let his children be carried about vagabonds, and beg; and let them be cast out of their dwellings. 11 May the usurer search all his substance: and let strangers plunder his labours. 12 May there be none to help him: nor none to pity his fatherless offspring.

[remnder]So what do you think? Should we not recite this Psalm and other imprecatory Psalms?[/reminder]
