Fremuérunt gentes, commóta sunt regna; * dedit vocem suam, liquefácta est terra.

Accessistis ad Sion montem et civitatem Dei viventis, Ierusalem cælestem (Hebr 12, 22).

Our feet were standing in thy courts, O Jerusalem.

Ierúsalem, quæ ædificáta est ut cívitas, * sibi compácta in idípsum.

Illuc enim ascendérunt tribus, tribus Dómini, * testimónium Israel, ad confiténdum nómini Dómini.

Lectio brevis (Ap 21, 1 a. 2-3. 22. 27)

Vidi civitátem sanctam Ierúsalem novam descendéntem de cælo a Deo, parátam sicut sponsam ornátam viro suo. Et audívi vocem magnam de throno dicéntem: «Ecce tabernáculum Dei cum homínibus! Et habitábit cum eis, et ipsi pópuli eius erunt, et ipse Deus cum eis erit eórum Deus». Et templum non vidi in ea: Dóminus enim Deus omnípotens templum illíus est, et Agnus. Nec intrábit in ea áliquid coinquinátum et fáciens abominatiónem et mendácium, nisi qui scripti sunt in libro vitæ Agni.
