Ich muß aber dies befehlen: Ich kann's nicht loben, daß ihr nicht auf bessere Weise, sondern auf ärgere Weise zusammenkommt.
Esto empero os denuncio, que no alabo, que no por mejor sino por peor os juntáis.
Al darles estas instrucciones no los alabo, porque se reúnen para empeorar y no para mejorar.
En donnant cet avertissement, ce que je ne loue point, c'est que vous vous assemblez, non pour devenir meilleurs, mais pour devenir pires.
OR io non vi lodo in questo, ch’io vi dichiaro, cioè, che voi vi raunate non in meglio, ma in peggio.
Nisto, porém, que vou dizer-vos não vos louvo; porquanto vos ajuntais, não para melhor, senão para pior.
我現在吩咐你們這話不是在稱讚你們,因為你們聚會是有損無益的。
