It's likely Dutch.
It's from Cradle of Filth.
I suppose, if you already have the verse in front of you, your into that kind of thing.
Go to dogpile.com and search the first few words or "Dusk and her embrace".
That's as much as I'm willing to help.
It's pretty dark material.

It's clearly Germanic, but not German. It looks like some form of Low German to me, so closer to Dutch, Frisian and Old English than to modern German, but not (I believe) any of them.
However, the meaning should be obvious to anyone with some knowledge of a Germanic languages and of the Bible:
Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth.
Where did you find it?

I believe it's German, but the words are misspelled.
