Angelus Domini descendit de coelo,
et accedens revolvit lapidem,
et super eum sedit, et dixit mulieribus.
Nolite timere: scio enim quia crucifixum quaeritis:
jam surrexit: venite, et videte locum, ubi positus erat Dominus.
Alleluja.
Et introeuntes in monumentum,
viderunt juvenem sedentem in dextris coopertum stola candida,
et obstupuerunt, qui dixit illis:
Nolite timere: scio enim quia crucifixum quaeritis:
jam surrexit: venite et videte locum, ubi positus erat Dominus.
Alleluja.
Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto.

An angel of the Lord came down from heaven,
and rolled back the stone,
and sat on it, and said to the women:
Do not be afraid: for I know that you seek the crucified:
He has risen: come and see the place where the Lord had lain.
Alleluia.
And they went into the tomb,
and saw a young man sitting on the right,
clothed in white robes, and stopped; and he said to them:
Do not be afraid: for I know that you seek the crucified:
He has risen: come and see the place where the Lord had lain.
Alleluia.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
