Publisher Desc.  The set of seven verses of the Latin text Dixit Dominus (Psalm 109) is one of the most powerful messianic scriptures found in the Old Testament of the Bible. Each verse delivers a variety of imagery and emotions including the reflective depiction of a communicating Godhead of verse one; the calm assuring promise of God void of emotion of verse four; and the confused milieu of judgement day in verses five and six. Such a text gives a composer setting this Psalm text an incredible opportunity to paint a wide variety of powerful moods.
