Latin text
Gaude et laetare, Jerusalem; ecce Rex tuus venit:
de quo Prophetae praedixerunt,
quem Angeli adoraverunt,
quem Cherubim et Seraphim Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus proclamant.
English translation
Rejoice and be glad, O Jerusalem; behold, thy King cometh:
whom the Prophets foretold,
whom Angels worship,
whom Cherubim and Seraphim proclaim, Holy, Holy, Holy.
German translation
Freu dich und frohlocke, Jerusalem: Siehe, dein König kommt:
von dem die Propheten vorhergesagt haben,
den die Engel angebetet haben,
dem die Cherubim und Seraphim Heilig, Heilig, Heilig zurufen.
