Original text and translations

Latin text

Venite ad me omnes
qui laboratis et onerati estis,
et ego refitiam vos, dicit Dominus.
Tollite enim iugum meum super vos
et discite a me,
quia mitis sum et humilis corde,
et invenietis requiem animabus vestris.
Iugum enim meum suave est,
et onus meum leve.
