Des ungeistlichen, losen Geschwätzes entschlage dich; denn es hilft viel zum ungöttlichen Wesen,
Mas evita profanas y vanas parlerías; porque muy adelante irán en la impiedad.
Evita las conversaciones profanas y vacías, porque quienes las practican avanzarán más en la impiedad,
Evite les discours vains et profanes; car ceux qui les tiennent avanceront toujours plus dans l'impiété,
Ma schiva le profane vanità di voci; perciocchè procederanno innanzi a maggiore empietà.
Mas evita os falatórios profanos, porque produzirão maior impiedade.
要遠避世俗的空談,因為這等空談會使人進到更不敬虔的地步。
