41

Again, through another prophecy, the prophetic Spirit indicated through David himself that Christ would reign after being crucified, saying: “Sing to the Lord, all the earth, and proclaim his salvation day after day. For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised, more to be feared than all the gods. For all the gods of the nations are idols of demons, but God made the heavens. Glory and praise are before his face, and strength and rejoicing in the place of his sanctuary. Give glory to the Lord, the Father of the ages. Receive grace and enter before his face, and worship in his holy courts. Let all the earth fear before his face; let it be established and not shaken. Let them rejoice among the nations: the Lord has reigned from the tree.”
