Psalms96:10

Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth. This clause reads in the old Latin version, "Tell it out among the heathen, that the Lord reigneth from the tree." Justin Martyr accuses the Jews, that they have erased the words "a ligno", apo xulou, which are wanting in the original and in the Septuagint. Mrs. Charles renders the verse thus:

"The truth that David learned to sing,

Its deep fulfilment here attains;

Tell all the earth the Lord is king!

Lo, from the cross, a King he reigns!" --From "Christ in Song. Hymns of Immanuel, with Notes by P. Schaff," 1870.
