In the Extraordinary Form of the Mass, the 'propers' are not optional, they must be said or sung audibly. In the Ordinary Form, though they notionally exist, they are generally omitted, drowned out by hymns. Some are trying to change this however, so from this week I will include the psalms set for both forms of the Mass to assist in your preparation for Sunday Mass.

Introit: Ps. 54: 17, 18, 20, 23, 2
Cum clamárem ad Dóminum, exaudívit vocem meam, ab his qui appropinquant mihi: et humiliávit eos, qui est ante saecula: et manet in ætérnum: jacta cogitátum tuum in Dómino, et ipse te enútriet. Exáudi, Deus, oratiónem meam, et ne despéxeris deprecatiónem meam: intende mihi, et exaudi me.
When I cried to the Lord He heard my voice, from them that draw near to me: and He humbled them, who is before all ages, and remains for ever: cast thy care upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee. Hear, O God, my prayer, and despise not my supplication be attentive to me and hear me.
Gradual: Ps. 16: 8,2
Custódi me, Dómine, ut pupíllam óculi: sub umbra alárum tuárum protégé me. De vulto tuo judícium meum pródeat: óculi tui vídeant æquitátem.
Keep me, O Lord, as the apple of Thine eye: protect me under the shadow of Thy wings. Let my judgment come forth from Thy countenance: let Thine eyes behold the thing that is equitable.

Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion: et tibi reddétur votum in Jerúsalem
A hymn, O God, becometh Thee in Sion: and a vow shall be paid to Thee in Jerusalem.
Offertory: Ps 24:1-3
Ad te, Dómine, levávi ánimam meam: Deus meus, in te confído, non erubéscam: neque irrédeant me inimíci mei: étenim univérsi qui te exspéctant, non confundéntur.
To Thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul: in Thee, O my God, I put my trust, let me not be ashamed: neither let my enemies laugh at me: for none of them that wait on Thee shall, be confounded.

Acceptábis sacrifícium justítiæ, oblatiónes et holocáusta super altáre tuum, Dómine.
Thou wilt accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and holocausts, upon Thine altar, O Lord.
