Literally: "What is that (which is) said? Answer." ("What is it? Answer me.")
 
> "Druwe tu en Jesum Christum, swaian ainangeminton Sounan..." Maybe this declaration of faith is set as a question: "Do you believe in...?"
 
Good. It means, "Do you believe in Jesus Christ, his only-born son ..."
 
It's a faithful translation of Martin Luther's Enchiridion, which should not be difficult to get hold of for the purpose of comparison.
