Sibylla Phrygia
Language: Latin
Available translation(s): ENG FIN FRE
Ipsa Deum vidi summum punire volentem
Mundi homines stupidos et pectora caeca rebellis,
Et quia sic nostram complerent crimina pellem.
Virginis in corpus voluit demittere coelo
Ipse Deus prolem, quam nuntiat angelus almae
Matri Quo miseros contracto [sorte lavaret]1.

Sibylle de Phrygie
Language: French (Français)  after the Latin
J'ai vu moi-même un Dieu très grand qui voulait punir
Les homme de ce monde stupides et rebelles dans leurs cœurs aveugles
Et parce que les crimes remplissaient notre peau
Il a voulu faire descendre dans le corps d'une vierge,
Lui Dieu, un enfant qu'un ange annoncera à la douce
Mère, pour laver les malheureux de la souillure contractée.
