Sicut Moses exaltavit serpentem in deserto,
Ita exaltari oportet filium hominis
Ut omnis qui credit in eum, non pereat
Sed habeat vitam aeternam. Amen.

As Moses have lifted up the serpent in desert,
So must the son of man be lifted up
So that all who believe in him does not perish
and have eternal life. Amen.

Comme Moses a enlevé le serpent dans le desert,
Il faut enlever le fils de l'homme
Afin que tous ce qui croient en lui ne perissent pas
et aient la vie éternelle. Amen.
