When referring to the Book of Psalms from The Bible, it is called Tehilim (תהילים) which literally means "praises."

When referring to actual individual psalms, a psalm is called mizmor (מזמור), which literally means "song".

If you are talking about the Book of Prophets in the Hebrew Bible, it's called Nevi'im (נביאים)

If you just want the translation for the phrase "prophetic book", it's sefer nevi'i (ספר נביאי)
