And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment to every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and unto this house?

Und vor diesem Haus, das das höchste gewesen ist, werden sich entsetzen alle, die vorübergehen, und sagen: Warum ist der HERR mit diesem Lande und diesem Hause also verfahren?
Y esta casa que habrá sido ilustre, será espanto a todo el que pasare, y dirá: ¿Por qué ha hecho así Jehová a esta tierra y a esta casa?
Et si haut placée qu'ait été cette maison, quiconque passera près d'elle sera dans l'étonnement, et dira: Pourquoi l'Eternel a-t-il ainsi traité ce pays et cette maison?
E questa Casa che sarà stata eccelsa, sarà in istupore a tutti coloro che passeranno appresso di essa; ed essi diranno: Perchè ha fatto il Signore così a questo paese ed a questa Casa?
E desta casa, que é tão exaltada, qualquer que passar por ela se espantará e dirá: Por que fez o SENHOR assim com esta terra e com esta casa?
這殿雖然崇高,將來凡經過的人必驚訝說:『耶和華為何向這地和這殿如此行呢?』
