Denn so spricht der Herr, HERR: Die Stadt, da tausend ausgehen, soll nur hundert übrig behalten; und da hundert ausgehen, die soll nur zehn übrig behalten im Hause Israel.
Porque así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: La ciudad que sacaba mil, quedará con ciento; y la que sacaba ciento, quedará con diez, en la casa de Israel.
Porque así dice el Señor Jehová: «La ciudad que salga con mil quedará con cien, y la que salga con cien quedará con diez, para la casa de Israel».
Car ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Eternel: La ville qui mettait en campagne mille hommes N'en conservera que cent, Et celle qui mettait en campagne cent hommes N'en conservera que dix, pour la maison d'Israël.
Perciocchè, così ha detto il Signore Iddio: Nella città onde ne uscivano mille, ne resteranno sol cento; e in quella onde ne uscivano cento, ne resteranno sol dieci, alla casa d’Israele
Porque assim diz o Senhor DEUS: A cidade da qual saem mil conservará cem, e aquela da qual saem cem conservará dez, para a casa de Israel.
主耶和華如此說: 「 以色列 家的城派出一千,只剩一百; 派出一百,只剩十個。」
