The above "table" is taken from the 1611 edition of the Authorized Version of the Bible. Again, it takes one through the Psalms in a 30-day month. Of course, the Proverbs can be read once a month as well, as long as you "double up" for one day on 30-day months (in such a case, I usually read Proverbs 30 and 31, on "day 30"), because Proverbs has 31 chapters.

Note: For the present month - the first month, or "January" - they recommend reading the Psalms through as usual, and then "sandwiching" the following month - the second month, or "February" - a 28-day month, with 1/31, and 3/1. So, on 1/31 (January 31st), read the first day's psalms (Ps. 1-5/6-8); on 2/1 (February 1st), read the second day's psalms (Ps. 9-11/12-14); on 2/2 (February 2nd), read the third day's psalms (Ps. 15-17/18)...; on 2/28, read the 29th day's psalms (Ps. 139-144); and on 3/1 (March 1st), read the 30th day's psalms (Ps. 144-150). Seeing the third month ("March") is a 31-day month, one can read the psalms again, starting on 3/2, and finishing on 3/31. In short, the first month has 31 days, the second month has 28, and the third month has 31. Those days add up to 60. Therefore, you can simply follow the above table through 3 times over the course of "January - March", by, again, "sandwiching" "February" between the last day of "January", and the first day of "March".

Happy praying and praising!

Daniel
