But prophesy not again any more at Bethel: for it is the king's chapel, and it is the king's court.

Und weissage nicht mehr zu Beth-El; denn es ist des Königs Heiligtum und des Königreichs Haus.
Y no profetices más en Beth-el, porque es santuario del rey, y cabecera del reino.
Pero no vuelvas a profetizar en Betel, porque es santuario del rey y templo del reino».
Mais ne continue pas à prophétiser à Béthel, car c'est un sanctuaire du roi, et c'est une maison royale.
E non profetizzar più in Betel; perciocchè è il santuario del re, ed una stanza reale.
Mas em Betel daqui por diante não profetizes mais, porque é o santuário do rei e casa real.
卻不要在 伯特利 再說預言,因為這裏有王的聖所,有王的宮殿。」
