Q: What are the words?
A: Latin:
Haec dicit Dominus:
vox in excelsis audita est lamentationis,
luctus et fletus,
Rachaell plorantis filios suos,
et nolentis consolari super eos, quia non sunt.
Haec dicit Dominus:
quiescat vox tua a ploratu,
et oculi tui a lacrimis,
quia est merces operi tuo,
ait Dominus:
et est spes in novissimis tuis,
et revertentur filii ad terminos suos.
A: English:
Thus saith our Lord:
A voice of lamentation is heard on high of the mourning,
and weeping,
of Rachel weeping for her children,
and refusing to be comforted for them, because they are not.
Thus saith our Lord:
Let thy voice cease from weeping,
and thine eyes from tears:
because there is a reward for thy work,
saith our Lord:
and there is hope to thy last ends,
and the children shall return to their borders.
