Can anyone identify the translation/translator of the Targum Psalms on this website? - mkerge - 10-05-2015
Can anyone tell me who did the translation of the Targums Psalms on this website. I find
It to be one of the most beautiful and poetIc translations that I have read. Is it available in print form
and where can I locate a copy?
Thanks,
Mark

I assume you are referring to the Trilinear Targums. The English translation of the "Tehilim (Psalms)" is the New American Standard Bible, which is a translation of the Hebrew, not the Aramaic. Both Lamsa and Rev. David Bauscher have translated the Psalms from the Aramaic. You can start there.

Thank you Doug. I will look into the two sources that you cited above.
