Latin text[[Category: Latin texts]] In medio Ecclesiae aperuit os eius, et implevit eius Dominus, spiritu sapientiae et intellectus: stolam gloriae induit eum. Bonum est confiteri domino Et psallite nomen suo altissime.

English translation And in the midst of the church she shall open his mouth, and shall fill him with the spirit of wisdom and understanding, and shall clothe him with a robe of glory. It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy name, O most High. (Douay-Rheims)
