Des andern Tages aber in der Nacht stand der HERR bei ihm und sprach: Sei getrost, Paulus! denn wie du von mir zu Jerusalem gezeugt hast, also mußt du auch zu Rom zeugen.
Y la noche siguiente, presentándosele el Señor, le dijo: Confía, Pablo; que como has testificado de mí en Jerusalem, así es menester testifiques también en Roma.
La noche siguiente, el Señor se presentó a su lado y dijo: «Ten ánimo; porque, así como has dado solemne testimonio de mí en Jerusalén, también debes dar testimonio en Roma».
La nuit suivante, le Seigneur apparut à Paul, et dit: Prends courage; car, de même que tu as rendu témoignage de moi dans Jérusalem, il faut aussi que tu rendes témoignage dans Rome.
E la notte seguente, il Signore si presentò a lui, e gli disse: Paolo, sta’ di buon cuore, perciocchè, come tu hai resa testimonianza di me in Gerusalemme, così convienti renderla ancora a Roma
E na noite seguinte, apresentando-se-lhe o Senhor, disse: Paulo, tem ânimo; porque, como de mim testificaste em Jerusalém, assim importa que testifiques também em Roma.
當夜,主站在 保羅 旁邊,說:「放心吧!你怎樣在 耶路撒冷 為我作見證,也必怎樣在 羅馬 為我作見證。」
