The Lord of hosts is with us: the God of Jacob is our helper.
Glory be, etc.
Ant. God shall help her with His countenance; God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved.
Ant. As of people all rejoicing,* so is our dwelling in thee, O holy Mother of God.
PSALM LXXXVI
The glory of the Church of Christ
His foundations are in the holy mountains; the Lord loveth the gates of Sion above all the dwellings of Jacob.
Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God.
I will be mindful of Rahab and of Babylon, that know me.
Behold strangers, and Tyre, and the people of the Ethiopians, these were there.
Shall it not be said of Sion: This one, and that one, is born in her: and the Most High Himself hath founded her?
