Laetare, Jerusalem; conventum facite omnes qui diligitis eam; gaudete cum laetitia, quia in tristitia fuistis: ut exsultetis, et satiemini ab uberibus consolationis vestrae.
Laetatus sum in his, quae dicta sunt mihi: in domum Domini ibimus.

Rejoice, O Jerusalem: and come together all you that love her:
rejoice with joy, you that have been in sorrow:
that you exult, and be filled from the breasts of your consolation.

I rejoiced at the things that were said to me:
we shall go into the house of the Lord.
