Original text and translations

Latin text

Clama, ne cesses, quasi tuba exalta vocem tuam
et annuntia populo meo scelera eorum
et domui Jacob peccata eorum.

Me etenim de die in diem quaerunt
et scire vias meas volunt
quasi gens quae justitiam fecerit
et quae judicium Dei sui non dereliquerit.
(Isaias 58,1-2)
