English translation
BWV 248, 3, 4: He has comforted his people.
Er hat sein Volk getrost',
He has comforted his people,
Er hat sein Israel erlöst,
He has redeemed his Israel
Die Hülf aus Zion hergesendet
He sent help from Zion
Und unser Leid geendet.
And our suffering ended.
Seht, Hirten, dies hat er getan;
See, shepherds, this is what he has done;
Geht, dieses trefft ihr an.
Go, you will find this one.
