Original text and translations

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.
