O Adonai, et Dux domus Israel,
qui Moysi in igne flammae rubi apparuisti,
et ei in Sina legem dedisti:
veni ad redimendum nos in brachio extento.

O Adonai, and leader of the house of Israel,
who appeared to Moses in the flame of the burning bush,
and gave him the law on Sinai:
come and redeem us with an outstretched arm.
