1 Surge, illuminare, [Jerusalem], quia venit lumen tuum, et gloria Domini super te orta est. 2 Quia ecce tenebrae operient terram et caligo populos. Super te autem orietur Dominus et gloria eius in te videbitur. |
1 Arise, shine [O Jerusalem]; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. 2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. |
