Text translations - Mass

Kyrie Eleison. Christe Eleison. Kyrie Eleison.
Lord have mercy. Christ have mercy. Lord have mercy.

The Gloria is often set independently of the rest of the Mass (e.g. by Vivaldi and Poulenc), and so we have created a separate web page with a translation of the Gloria.

Credo in unum Deum. Patrem omnipotentem, factorem coeli et terrae, visibilium omnium et invisibilium
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things seen and unseen

Et in unum Dominum Jesum Christum, Filium Dei Unigenitum, et ex Patre natum ante omnia saecula. Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine, Deum verum de Deo vero
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds. God of God, Light of Light, True God of True God.

Genitum non factum, consubstantialem Patri, per quem omnia facta sunt: Qui propter nos homines et propter nostram salutem descendit de coelis
Begotten not made, of one being with the Father by whom all things were made: who for us men and for out salvatation came down from heaven.

Et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sancto ex Maria Virgine, et homo factus est

Crucifixus etiam pro nobis sub Pontio Pilato, passes et sepultus est.

On the third day he rose again, according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, where he sits at the right hand of the Father. He shall come again in glory to judge the living and the dead. His kingdom shall have no end.

Et in Spiritum Sanctum Dominum et vivificantem, qui ex Patre Filioque procedit
And in the Holy Gost, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son

Qui cum Patre et Filio simul adoratur et conglorificatur: qui locutus est per prophetas
