Our translations: ITA

Und ich sahe den Himmel aufgetan, und siehe
Ein weißes Pferd, und der darauf saß,
hieß treu und Wahraftig,
und richtet und streitet mit Gerechtigkeit.
Und er tritt die Kelter des Weins
Des grimmigen Zorns des allmächtigen Gottes.
Und hat einen Namen geschrieben
Auf seinem Kleide und auf seiner Hüfte also:
Ein König aller König, und ein Herr aller Herren.
Halleluja! Amen!

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)

Nel profondo dei cieli ho scrutato, e ho visto
Un cavallo tutto bianco e un cavaliere
I cui nomi erano Fede e Verità,
che giudicava e combatteva con giustizia.
Egli spremerà il vino
Del furore di Dio onnipotente.
Ed ha un nome scritto
Sul suo mantello e sul suo fianco:
"Re dei re e signore dei signori"
Alleluia! Amen!
