Dear Doctor Robbesom,
Thank you for sharing your studies of Aleijadinho’s statues of the prophets. The texts on the shields/scrolls held by the prophets seem to come from the Latijnsche Gedichten of Cornelius Kilianus, a Flemish translator/poet, 1607-1685. I found the Habacuc and Amos quotes on this page, https://archive.org/stream/kilianuslatijns00kielgoog/kilianuslatijns00kielgoog_djvu.txt
