O Adonai, Ruler of the house of Israel, you appeared to Moses in the flame of a burning bush and gave him the law on Sinai: come and save us with your mighty right hand.
O Adonai, and Leader of the house of Israel, who appeared to Moses in the fire of the flame of the bush, and gave him the law on Sinai: come to redeem us with an outstretched arm.
(Antiphon before the Gospel; Antiphon to the Canticle of the Virgin Mary – December 18)
