13. .
David was chosen to be king, and he was royally anointed
with the horn of divine oil. So if you, my soul, desire the
Kingdom on high, be anointed with the oil of tears.
Remember us, O Holy One, when Thou comest in
Thy Kingdom.
14.
Have mercy on Thy creation, O merciful Lord; have
compassion on the work of Thy hands, and spare all who
have sinned, and even me who above all have ignored Thy
commands.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy
Spirit:
To The Trinity:
Unoriginate both by generation and procession, the
Father Who begot I worship, I glorify the Son Who is
begotten, and I hymn the Holy Spirit, co-effulgent with the
Father and the Son.
Now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.
Theotokion:
We worship thy supernatural childbirth, without
dividing the natural glory of thy Child, O Mother of God. For
He is confessed to be one in Person and twofold in Nature.
