Original text and translations

Latin text Ecce Dominus veniet et omnes sancti eius cum eo: et erit in die illa lux magna, et exibunt de Hierusalem sicut aqua munda, et regnabit Dominus in æternum super omnes gentes. Ecce Dominus cum virtute veniet et regnum in manu eius, et potestas et imperium super omnes gentes.

English translation Behold, the Lord shall come and all his saints with him, and on that day there will be great light, and they shall go forth from Jerusalem like pure water, and the Lord shall reign over all the nations forever. Behold, the Lord shall come in strength and with power in his hand, and with rule and governance over all the nations. (trans. Timmi O'Danaos & Donna Ferrentes)
