Dante's Inferno Translation:
"I AM THE WAY INTO THE CITY OF WOE.
I AM THE WAY TO A FORSAKEN PEOPLE.
I AM THE WAY INTO ETERNAL SORROW.
SACRED JUSTICE MOVED MY ARCHITECT.
I WAS RAISED HERE BY DIVINE OMNIPOTENCE,
PRIMORDIAL LOVE AND ULTIMATE INTELLECT.
ONLY THOSE ELEMENTS TIME CANNOT WEAR
WERE MADE BEFORE ME, AND BEYOND TIME I STAND.
ABANDON ALL HOPE YE WHO ENTER HERE. "
In middle Italian:
Per me si va nella citta dolente per me si va nell'eterno dolore
per me si va tra la perduta gente
giustizia mosse il mio alto fattore
facemi la divina podestate
la soma sapienza e la primo amore
devante a me, non fuor cosa create
sei non eterno, ed io eterno duro
lasciate ogne speranze voi qu'intrate
Translation:
Through me the way to the suffering city
Through me the way to eternal pain
Through me the way that runs amond the lost
Justice urged on my high artifier
my maker was divine authority
the highest wisdom, and the primal love
Before me, nothing but eternal things were made
and I endure eternally
Abandon all hope, who enter here
