Original text and translations

Latin text

Domine Deus iustorum ne sis iratus nobis
quia peccavimus sed prae multitudine bonitatis tuae
da pacem Domine in finibus nostris
ut absque pavore dormiamus et nemo sit qui extereat.

Aufer omnia mala et gladius non transeat terminos nostros
ut securi tibi serviamus et te semper laudemus omnibus diebus vitae nostrae
quoniam tu es Deus pietatis et auctor pacis.
