Sie achten keines Rechts, spricht der HERR, sammeln Schätze von Frevel und Raub in ihren Palästen.
Y no saben hacer lo recto, dice Jehová, atesorando rapiñas y despojos en sus palacios.
«No saben hacer lo recto —declara Jehová— los que acumulan violencia y despojo en sus palacios».
Ils ne savent pas agir avec droiture, dit l'Eternel, Ils entassent dans leurs palais les produits de la violence et de la rapine.
Essi non sanno operar dirittamente, dice il Signore; essi, che fanno tesoro di violenza, e di rapina nei lor palazzi.
Porque não sabem fazer o que é reto, diz o SENHOR, aqueles que entesouram nos seus palácios a violência e a destruição.
「他們以暴力搶奪, 堆積在自己的宮殿裏, 卻不懂得行正直的事。」 這是耶和華說的。
