ein Stein des Anstoßens und ein Fels des Ärgernisses; denn sie stoßen sich an dem Wort und glauben nicht daran, wozu sie auch gesetzt sind.
Y Piedra de tropiezo, y roca de escándalo a aquellos que tropiezan en la palabra, siendo desobedientes; para lo cual fueron también ordenados.
Et une pierre d'achoppement Et un rocher de scandale; ils s'y heurtent pour n'avoir pas cru à la parole, et c'est à cela qu'ils sont destinés.
I quali s’intoppano nella parola, essendo disubbidienti; a che ancora sono stati posti.
E uma pedra de tropeço e rocha de escândalo, para aqueles que tropeçam na palavra, sendo desobedientes; para o que também foram destinados.
又說: 「作了絆腳的石頭, 使人跌倒的磐石。」 他們絆跌,因為不順從這道,這也是預定的。
