Meine Kindlein, laßt uns nicht lieben mit Worten noch mit der Zunge, sondern mit der Tat und mit der Wahrheit.
Hijitos míos, no amemos de palabra ni de lengua, sino de obra y en verdad.
Petits enfants, n'aimons pas en paroles et avec la langue, mais en actions et avec vérité.
Figlioletti miei, non amiamo di parola, nè della lingua; ma d’opera, e in verità.
Meus filhinhos, não amemos de palavra, nem de língua, mas por obra e em verdade.
孩子們哪,我們相愛,不要只在言語或舌頭上,總要以行為和真誠表現出來。
