December 18 – O Lord (O Adonai)
O Adonai, and leader of the House of Israel,
who appeared to Moses in the fire of the burning bush
and gave him the law on Sinai:
Come and redeem us with an outstretched arm.
(Original translation from Latin)
O Lord of your chosen people, you have spoken to us
through prophets. Through burning bushes and flaming tongues
you have given us your law: to love God and love others.
Come with your outstretched arms and bring salvation to all.
(Contemporary translation from Thom Turner on Everyday Liturgy blog, http://everydayliturgy.com/o-antiphons-a-theological-translation/)
Exodus 3.1-6; Micah 5:2; Matthew 2:6
