Original text and translations

German text Selig sind die Toten, die in dem Herren sterben, von nun an. Ja der Geist spricht: Sie ruhen von ihrer Arbeit und ihre Werke folgen ihnen nach.

English translation Blessed are the dead, that die in the Lord from now on. Yea, the Spirit speaks: they rest from their labors and their works follow them.

Hungarian translation Mostantól fogva boldogok a halottak, akik az Úrban halnak meg. Igen, mondja a Lélek, kipihenik fáradalmaikat, tetteik pedig elkísérik őket.
