Isaiah 45:1
Douay-Rheims
Thus saith the Lord to my anointed Cyrus, whose right hand I have taken hold of, to subdue nations before his face, and to turn the backs of kings, and to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
P. " His anointed.'1 Kings among the Jews being anointed, at least in some instances, the term is here equivalent to king. It is not known that the Persian kings were anointed.
