und wisset, daß ihr nicht mit vergänglichem Silber oder Gold erlöst seid von eurem eitlen Wandel nach väterlicher Weise,
Sabiendo que habéis sido rescatados de vuestra vana conversación, la cual recibisteis de vuestros padres, no con cosas corruptibles, como oro o plata;
sabiendo que fueron rescatados de la manera vacía de vivir heredada de sus padres, no con cosas perecederas, como plata u oro,
sachant que ce n'est pas par des choses périssables, par de l'argent ou de l'or, que vous avez été rachetés de la vaine manière de vivre que vous aviez héritée de vos pères,
sapendo che, non con cose corruttibili, argento od oro, siete stati riscattati dalla vana condotta vostra, insegnata di mano in mano da’ padri;
Sabendo que não foi com coisas corruptíveis, como prata ou ouro, que fostes resgatados da vossa vã maneira de viver que por tradição recebestes dos vossos pais,
你們知道,你們得以從你們祖先傳下來虛妄的行為中救贖出來,不是靠著會朽壞的金銀等物,
