Nicht daß wir Herren seien über euren Glauben, sondern wir sind Gehilfen eurer Freude; denn ihr stehet im Glauben.
No que nos enseñoreemos de vuestra fe, mas somos ayudadores de vuestro gozo: porque por la fe estáis firmes.
No es que dominemos la fe de ustedes, sino que colaboramos para su alegría, porque por la fe se mantienen firmes.
non pas que nous dominions sur votre foi, mais nous contribuons à votre joie, car vous êtes fermes dans la foi.
Non già che noi signoreggiamo la vostra fede, ma siamo aiutatori della vostra allegrezza: perchè voi state ritti per la fede
Não que tenhamos domínio sobre a vossa fé, mas porque somos cooperadores de vosso gozo; porque pela fé estais em pé.
我們並不是要控制你們的信心,而是要作你們的同工,讓你們得快樂,因為你們在信仰上已經站得穩了。
