Latin Text Selections

The Latin:

Ficus enim non florébit,
et non erit germen in víneis ;
mentiétur opus olívæ,
et arva non áfferent cibum :
abscindétur de ovíli pecus,
et non erit arméntum in præsépibus.
Ego autem in Dómino gaudébo ;
et exsultábo in Deo Iésu meo.
Deus Dóminus fortitúdo mea,
et ponet pedes meos quasi cervórum :
et super excélsa mea dedúcet me
victor in psalmis canéntem.

The English:

For the fig tree shall not blossom:
and there shall be no spring in the vines.
The labour of the olive tree shall fail:
and the fields shall yield no food:
the flock shall be cut off from the fold,
and there shall be no herd in the stalls.
But I will rejoice in the Lord:
and I will joy in God my Jesus.
The Lord God is my strength:
and he will make my feet like the feet of harts:
and he the conqueror will lead me
upon my high places singing psalms.

[Everything will fall away, but I will rejoice in the Lord. The spirit of the Saints.]
