Der Himmel ist mein Stuhl und die Erde meiner Füße Schemel; was wollt ihr mir denn für ein Haus bauen? spricht der HERR, oder welches ist die Stätte meiner Ruhe?
El cielo es mi trono, Y la tierra es el estrado de mis pies. ¿Qué casa me edificaréis? dice el Señor; ¿O cuál es el lugar de mi reposo?
Le ciel est mon trône, Et la terre mon marchepied. Quelle maison me bâtirez-vous, dit le Seigneur, Ou quel sera le lieu de mon repos?
Il cielo è il mio trono, e la terra lo scannello de’ miei piedi; qual casa mi edifichereste voi? dice il Signore; o qual sarebbe il luogo del mio riposo?
O céu é o meu trono, E a terra o estrado dos meus pés. Que casa me edificareis? diz o Senhor, Ou qual é o lugar do meu repouso?
『主說:天是我的寶座, 地是我的腳凳。 你們要為我造怎樣的殿宇? 哪裏是我安歇的地方呢?
