Latin text

Eram quasi agnus innocens, ductus sum ad immolandum et nesciebam. Concilium fecerunt inimici mei, adversum me cogitabant mala mihi Verbum iniquum mandaverunt adversum me dicentes: venite, mittamus lignum in panem eius, et eradamus eum de terra viventium.

Italian translation Ero come un agello innocente, condotto al macello, e morivo. I miei nemici fecero un'assemblea contro di me, mandandomi sciagure. Mi parlavano con parole inique, dicendo:

Venite, mettiamo del veleno nel suo pane,

e strappiamolo dalla terra dei viventi
