10 All those who know your name, O LORD,
in you their trust will place,
For you do not abandon those
who seek your gracious face.

11 Sing praises to the LORD who sits
in Zion on his throne;
Among the nations of the world
proclaim what he has done.

Sung acapella from: Sing Psalms 2003 (Produced by the Free Church of Scotland).

Psalm 9 v10-11 (Tune: Glasgow)

Text: Scottish Psalter (1650) Recorded Arbroath FCC Youth Weekend
(Meter: CM)

31  If they my laws break, and do not
         keep my commandements;
  32  I'll visit then their faults with rods,
         their sins with chastisements.

  33  Yet I'll not take my love from him,
         nor false my promise make.
  34  My cov'nant I'll not break, nor change
         what with my mouth I spake.

  35  Once by my holiness I sware,
         to David I'll not lie;
  36  His seed and throne shall, as the sun,
         before me last for aye.

  37  It, like the moon, shall ever be
         established stedfastly;
      And like to that which in the heav'n
         doth witness faithfully.

  38  But thou, displeased, hast cast off,
         thou didst abhor and loathe;
      With him that thine anointed is
         thou hast been very wroth.

1. Messe Royale de Versailles – D’après les Manuscrits de la Maison de Bourbon
(Royal Mass of Versailles – From the Manuscripts of the House of Bourbon)

2. Messe Solennelle pour la Chapelle Royale – Inspirée des Archives de la Maison d’Orléans
(Solemn Mass for the Royal Chapel – Inspired by the Archives of the House of Orléans)

Messes Royales de Versailles – Héritage des Manuscrits Secrets des Maisons de Bourbon et d’Orléans réunit deux messes baroques majestueuses, réinventées et complétées par Akiva David à partir de manuscrits historiques jalousement conservés par les lignées princières françaises. Découverts lors d’une rencontre familiale avec des cousins éloignés des Maisons de Bourbon et d’Orléans, ces trésors musicaux proviennent de la Chapelle Royale de Versailles et témoignent de l’éclat liturgique de l’Ancien Régime.

Sous la direction d’Akiva David, et interprétées par la Choral Society of Fête Saint-Hubert Hounds, ces messes recréent la grandeur sonore de Lully, Rameau et Delalande, avec instruments d’époque à diapason historique (A=415) et chœur en latin. Du murmure d’un hautbois solitaire à l’éclat triomphal des trompettes naturelles et des timbales, l’enregistrement, capté dans l’acoustique majestueuse d’une chapelle royale, restitue la dévotion, la pompe et la splendeur artistique d’un monde disparu.

Track 6 Messe Royale de la Maison de Bourbon – De la Gloire et de la Majesté Agnus Dei – Majestas Misericordiae

Fraught with error, but a worthwhile endeavour.

Psalm 12 sung a capella from Sing Psalm (2003)(Produced by the Free Church of Scotland). Meter: (11 10 11 10)

	1	Help, LORD, because the godly have quite vanished,
			and faithful folk we can no longer see.
	2	Each one tells falsehood even to his neighbour;
			with flattering lips they speak deceitfully.

	3	Now may the LORD cut off all lips which flatter,
			and every tongue which speaks with boastful word.
	4	Such people say, “We with our tongues will triumph;
			we own our lips—who then can be our lord?”

	5	“Because the weak have suffered great oppression,
			and I have heard the needy’s groaning cries,
		Now I will guard them from those who malign them.
			To help them,” says the LORD, “I will arise.”

		7	O LORD, you will preserve us safe for ever
			and from this evil age keep us secure;
	8	For here the wicked strut about quite freely,
			and praise is giv’n to all that is impure.

1 Help, LORD, because the godly have quite vanished,
and faithful folk we can no longer see.
2 Each one tells falsehood even to his neighbour;
with flattering lips they speak deceitfully.

3 Now may the LORD cut off all lips which flatter,
and every tongue which speaks with boastful word.
4 Such people say, “We with our tongues will triumph;
we own our lips—who then can be our lord?”

5 “Because the weak have suffered great oppression,

Now I will guard them from those who malign them.
To help them,” says the LORD, “I will arise.”

7 O LORD, you will preserve us safe for ever
and from this evil age keep us secure;
8 For here the wicked strut about quite freely,
and praise is giv’n to all that is impure.
