Sibylla Persica
Language: Latin
Available translation(s): ENG FIN FRE
Virgine matre satus pando residebit assello,
Iucundus princeps unus qui ferre salutem
Rite queat lapsis tamen; illis forte diebus
Multi multa ferent immensi fata laboris
Solo sed satis est oracula prodere verbo:
Ille Deus casta nascetur virgine magnus.

Sibylle de Perse
Language: French (Français)  after the Latin
Né d'une mère vierge, il sera assis sur un âne à l'échine courbée,
Prince gracieux, qui seul peut porter le salut
Selon les rites aux pécheurs ; pourtant sans doute en ces jours
Beaucoup supporteront les nombreuses prophéties d'une souffrance immense.
Mais une seule parole suffit pour rendre les oracles :
Ce grand Dieu naîtra d'une vierge pure.
