CHRIST THE KING IS BORN PSALM 44 LXX (HTM) [45 KJV]:
\"My heart hath poured forth a good word;
I speak of my works to the King; my tongue
is the pen of a swiftly writing scribe.
Comely art Thou in beauty more than the
sons of men; grace hath been poured forth
on Thy lips, wherefore God hath blessed
Thee for ever.
Gird Thy sword upon Thy thigh, O Mighty
One, in Thy comeliness and Thy beauty.
And bend Thy bow, and proceed
prosperously, and be King, because of
truth and meekness and righteousness;
and Thy right hand shall guide Thee
wondrously.
Thine arrows are sharp, O Mighty One,
(under Thee shall peoples falls) sharp in
the heart of the enemies of the King.
Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever;
a sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre
of Thy Kingdom.
Thou hast loved righteousness and hated
iniquity. Wherefore God, Thy God, hath
anointed Thee with the oil of gladness
more than Thy fellows.
Myrrh and stacte and cassia exhale from
Thy garments, from the ivory palaces,
whereby they have made Thee glad,
they the daughters of kings in Thine
honour. At Thy right hand stood the
Queen, arrayed in a vesture of inwoven
gold, adorned in varied colours.
Hearken, O daughter, and see, and
incline thine ear; forget thine own people
and thy father\'s house.
And the King shall greatly desire thy
beauty, for He Himself is thy Lord, and
thou shalt worship Him. And Him shall
the daughters of Tyre worship with gifts;
the rich aming the people shall entreat
thy countenance. all the glory of the
daughter of the King is within, with
gold-fringed garments is she arrayed,
adorned in varied colors. The virgins
that follow after her shall be brought
unto the King, those near her shall be
brought unto Thee. They shall be brought
into the temple of the King. In the stead
of thy fathes, sons are born to thee; thou
shalt make them prince over all the earth.
I shall commemorate Thy name in every
generation. Therefore shall peoples give
praise unto Thee for ever, and unto the
ages of ages.\"
AMEN. pp. 91-92; HTM (HOLY
