Latin text

O sapientia quae ex ore Altisimi prodiisti,

attingens a fine usque ad finem fortiter,

suaviterque disponens omnia.

Veni ad docendum nos viam prudentiae. Amen.

English translation

O wisdom which comes from the mouth of the Most High,

extending strongly from pole to pole,

which orders all things fittingly.

Come and teach us the way of prudence. Amen.
