Latin text

Periti autem fulgebunt ut fulgor aethereus.

Quique multos reddiderunt justos erunt stellarum similes,

in omnem aeternitatem.

(King James Bible; Daniel 12:3)

And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament;

and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars

for ever and ever.
