Siehe, ich will's unter euch knarren machen, wie ein Wagen voll Garben knarrt,
Pues he aquí, yo os apretaré en vuestro lugar, como se aprieta el carro lleno de haces;
Voici, je vous écraserai, Comme foule la terre un chariot chargé de gerbes.
Ecco, io vi stringerò ne’ vostri luoghi, come si stringe un carro, pieno di fasci di biade.
Eis que eu vos apertarei no vosso lugar como se aperta um carro cheio de feixes.
「看哪,我要把你們壓下去, 如同裝滿禾捆的車壓過一樣。
