^CA wai izwis, jus sadans nu, unte gredagai wairþiþ; wai izwis, jus hlahjandans nu, unte gaunon jah gretan duginnid.

— οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, οἱ ἐμπεπλησμένοι νῦν, ὅτι πεινάσετε. οὐαί, οἱ γελῶντες νῦν, ὅτι πενθήσετε καὶ κλαύσετε.

— Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
