Original text and translations

Latin text

Domus mea, domus orationis vocabitur, dicit Dominus:
in ea omnis, qui petit, accipit:
et qui quaerit, invenit,
et pulsanti aperietur.

English translation

My house shall be called the house of prayer, saith the Lord:
in it every one that asketh receiveth:
and he that seeketh findeth,
and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
