Latin text
Priusquam te formarem in utero, novi te, et antequam exires de ventre, sanctificavi te. Misit Dominus manum suam, et tetigit os meum, et dixit mihi: tu puer, propheta Altissimi vocaberis :
præibis enim ante faciem Domini parare vias ejus.
English translation
Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
and before you were born I consecrated you; the Lord touched my mouth and said to me: you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High;
for you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways.
