Wenn du aber segnest im Geist, wie soll der, so an des Laien Statt steht, Amen sagen auf deine Danksagung, sintemal er nicht weiß, was du sagst?
Porque si bendijeres con el espíritu, el que ocupa lugar de un mero particular, ¿cómo dirá amén a tu acción de gracias? pues no sabe lo que has dicho.
Porque, si bendices en espíritu, ¿cómo dirá «Amén» a tu acción de gracias el que ocupa el lugar de quien no entiende, puesto que no sabe lo que dices?
Autrement, si tu rends grâces par l'esprit, comment celui qui est dans les rangs de l'homme du peuple répondra-t-il Amen! à ton action de grâces, puisqu'il ne sait pas ce que tu dis?
Poichè, se tu benedici con lo spirito, come dirà colui che occupa il luogo dell’idiota Amen al tuo ringraziamento, poichè egli non intende ciò che tu dici?
De outra maneira, se tu bendisseres com o espírito, como dirá o que ocupa o lugar de indouto, o Amém, sobre a tua ação de graças, visto que não sabe o que dizes?
不然,你用靈祝謝,那在座不通方言的人,既然不明白你的話,怎能在你感謝的時候說「阿們」呢?
