Original text and translations

Latin text

Vau.
  Et egressus est a filia Sion omnis decor ejus;
  facti sunt principes ejus velut arietes
  non invenientes pascua,
  et abierunt absque fortitudine ante faciem subsequentis. (Laments 1:6)

  Zay.
  Recordata est Jerusalem dierum afflictionis suae,
  et praevaricationis, omnium desiderabilium suorum,
  quae habuerat a diebus antiquis,
  cum caderet populus ejus in manu hostili,
  et non esset auxiliator:
  viderunt eam hostes,
  et deriserunt sabbata ejus. (Laments 1:7)
  Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
  Convertere ad Dominum Deum tuum.
