Oscar-winning actor Jeremy Irons reads from the King James Version of the Book of Psalms, containing some of the most beautiful poetry in the Bible.

Some of the most beautiful poetry in the Bible is in the Book of Psalms. In four special programmes for Easter, Oscar-winning actor Jeremy Irons reads from the King James Version.

The Psalms show a whole range of human emotions. Here we find hymns, laments and songs of thanksgiving, offering a space for reflection and contemplation, addressing a wide range of subjects from love to politics and from history to faith.

In the second programme, Jeremy Irons begins with Psalm 34 and finishes with Psalm 44, 'My tongue is the pen of a ready writer'.
