sein wird auch nicht von Menschenhänden gepflegt, als der jemandes bedürfe, so er selber jedermann Leben und Odem allenthalben gibt.
Ni es honrado con manos de hombres, necesitado de algo; pues Él da a todos vida, y respiración, y todas las cosas;
ni es servido por manos humanas como si necesitara algo, pues él mismo da a todos vida, aliento y todas las cosas.
il n'est point servi par des mains humaines, comme s'il avait besoin de quoi que ce soit, lui qui donne à tous la vie, la respiration, et toutes choses.
E non è servito per mani d’uomini, come avendo bisogno d’alcuna cosa; egli che dà a tutti e la vita, e il fiato, ed ogni cosa.
Nem tampouco é servido por mãos de homens, como que necessitando de alguma coisa; pois ele mesmo é quem dá a todos a vida, e a respiração, e todas as coisas;
也不用人手去服侍,好像缺少甚麼似的;自己倒將生命、氣息、萬物賜給萬人。
