Original text and translations
Deus est qui utrimque in vobis operatur,
et velle et perficere;
justus enim sua fide vivet.
Credidit Abraham Deo,
et reputatum est illi ad justitiam,
et amicus Dei appellatus est.
(Phil. 2:13; Habacuc 2:4; Jas. 2:23 [Gen 15: 6; Rom 4:3; Gal 3: 6])
English translation
Translation supplied by The St. Ann Choir, directed by William Mahrt.
It is God who works twofold in you,
both to will and to accomplish;
for the just shall live by his faith.
Abraham believed God,
and it was reputed to him as justice,
and he was called the friend of God.
