Recitative [Bass]

Continuo

Let the clever world be angry
that God's son
should forsake his high throne of honour,
that he should clothe himself in flesh and blood
and suffer as a human being.
The greatest wisdom of this world
must before the counsel of the most high
Zur größten Torheit werden.
Become the greatest folly.
Was Gott beschlossen hat,
What God has decided,
reason cannnot fathom;
she is the blind leader who misleads the spiritually blind.
