Language: Latin
Available translation(s): DUT ENG GER
Vinea mea electa, ego te plantavi:
quomodo conversa es in amaritudinem,

Sepivi te, et lapides elegi ex te,

O vineyard, my chosen one!
Language: English  after the Latin
O vineyard, my chosen one! I planted you:
how are you changed from sweet to bitter,
to have crucified me and released Barrabas?
I protected you; I have removed stones that could bother you
and built a tower for your defense.
