Impossible to say! This all depends upon the translation used. One suggestion is to download the psalms complete from one of the Bible websites (NIV, Biblegateway etc) - for temporary use as some translations are copyright - then cut and paste into Word. Use the Tools menu in Word to find 'word count' and that will give you a good idea.
Since no one took the time to actually DO the above steps and provide necessary help, I decided to (since I also needed the question answered).
In the NIV, there are just shy of 44,000 words in the Book of Psalms. (I needed to know this to know how long it should take the average person to breeze through all 150 chapters) Hope that helps you, People!
