     Lad mig leve med og i dig; og omvend dog mine forfølgere, som nu med deres spotten – uden at vide det - ofrer min tomhed og medfødte synder for din vrede.

     Let me live with and in you; and convert my pursuers, who now, with their mocking - unknowingly - sacrifice my emptiness and inborn sins for your anger.
