Original text and translations

Latin text

Ne irascaris Domine satis,
et ne ultra memineris iniquitatis nostrae.
Ecce respice populus tuus omnes nos.

Civitas sancti tui facta est deserta.
Sion deserta facta est,
Jerusalem desolata est.

English translation

Be not angry, O Lord,
and remember our iniquity no more.
Behold, we are all your people.

Your holy city has become a wilderness.
Zion has become a wilderness,
Jerusalem has been made desolate.

Spanish translation

No te enojes, Señor,
Y deja de recordar nuestras culpas.
Aquí nos tienes a todos, tu pueblo.

Tu ciudad santa ha quedado desierta.
Sion ha quedado desierta,
Jerusalén ha quedado desolada.
