O clavis David...


Today is the 20th day in the month of December, so on with the precious O Antiphons...

O clavis David, et sceptrum domus Israel: qui aperis et nemo claudit; claudis et nemo aperit: veni, et educ vinctum de domo carceris, sedentem in tenebris, et umbra mortis.

O key of David, and sceptre of the house of Israel: you who open and no one closes; you close and no one opens: come and lead the captive from the house of prison, sitting in the darkness, and under the shadow of death.
