Original text and translations

Latin text Asperges me, Domine, hyssopo, et mundabor: lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor. Miserere mei, Deus, secundum magnam misericordiam tuam. Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.

English translation Thou shalt sprinkle me, O Lord, with hyssop, and I shall be pure: thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Have mercy on me, O God, according to thy great mercy. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
