Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?

Wer zieht jemals in den Krieg auf seinen eigenen Sold? Wer pflanzt einen Weinberg, und ißt nicht von seiner Frucht? Oder wer weidet eine Herde, und nährt sich nicht von der Milch der Herde?
¿Quién jamás peleó a sus expensas? ¿quién planta viña, y no come de su fruto? ¿ó quién apacienta el ganado, y no come de la leche del ganado?
¿Quién sirve alguna vez como soldado a sus propias expensas? ¿Quién planta un viñedo y no come de su fruto? ¿Quién cuida un rebaño y no se alimenta de la leche del rebaño?
Qui jamais fait le service militaire à ses propres frais? Qui est-ce qui plante une vigne, et n'en mange pas le fruit? Qui est-ce qui fait paître un troupeau, et ne se nourrit pas du lait du troupeau?
Chi guerreggia mai al suo proprio soldo? chi pianta una vigna, e non ne mangia del frutto? o chi pastura una greggia, e non mangia del latte della greggia?
Quem jamais milita à sua própria custa? Quem planta a vinha e não come do seu fruto? Ou quem apascenta o gado e não se alimenta do leite do gado?
有誰當兵而自備糧餉呢?有誰栽葡萄園而不吃園裏的果子呢?有誰牧養牛羊而不喝牛羊的奶呢?
