DIVINUM OFFICIUM Antiphon

Antiphona 2 ad Laudes

Advent IV - Lauds Antiphon 2

"Ecce veniet desideratus cunctis Gentibus" (Behold the Desired of all Nations will come) from Aggeus 2:8 (Vulgate) presents Christ as universal longing's fulfillment. The house of the Lord filled with glory connects to both Temple and Church. Advent IV anticipates Christmas's manifestation.

LATINE
Ecce veniet desideratus cunctis Gentibus: et replebitur gloria domus Domini, alleluja.
ENGLISH
Lo! the desired of all Nations will come: and the house of the Lord shall be filled with glory, alleluia.
