The books of Psalms and Proverbs contain unique contents among the books in the Old Testament. Both widely read and highly treasured books of the Old Testament, Psalms and Proverbs contain wise sayings, songs of praises, encouragements, and prayers of the Jewish people.

Psalms and Proverbs have different purposes but both books teach, instruct, inspire, and guide the readers to a godly lifestyle, to a knowledge of God’s heart and His character, and to life’s perspectives that please the Lord.

The book of Proverbs teaches the readers and believers about godly wisdom and lifestyle with the foundation of the fear of the Lord (see Prov. 9:10), while the book of Psalms reveals the heart of God, the cry of the Israelites, prophecies about Jesus Christ, and encouragements with prayers in times of troubles, sorrows, sufferings, and trials.

While each book has a unique voice and style, both help believers to grow in wisdom, knowledge, and a closer relationship with God. English speakers are acclaiming American voice artist Bill Foote for his caring read of God’s word, making the complete King James audio Bible easy for today’s listeners to understand the Word of God.
