Eighteenth Day: Evening Prayer

93Dominus regnavit

1The Lord is King;
he has put on splendid apparel; *
the Lord has put on his apparel
and girded himself with strength.

2He has made the whole world so sure *
that it cannot be moved;

3Ever since the world began, your throne has been established; *
you are from everlasting.

4The waters have lifted up, O Lord,
the waters have lifted up their voice; *
the waters have lifted up their pounding waves.

5Mightier than the sound of many waters,
mightier than the breakers of the sea, *
mightier is the Lord who dwells on high.

6Your testimonies are very sure, *
and holiness adorns your house, O Lord,
for ever and for evermore.

94Deus ultionum

1O Lord God of vengeance, *
O God of vengeance, show yourself.

2Rise up, O Judge of the world; *
give the arrogant their just deserts.

3How long shall the wicked, O Lord, *
how long shall the wicked triumph?

722Psalms 93, 94
