auf daß ich das Haus Israel fasse an ihrem Herzen, darum daß sie alle von mir gewichen sind durch ihre Abgötterei.
Para tomar a la casa de Israel en su corazón, que se han apartado de mí todos ellos en sus ídolos.
para atrapar por el corazón a la casa de Israel, pues todos se han apartado de mí por sus ídolos.
afin de saisir dans leur propre coeur ceux de la maison d'Israël qui se sont éloignés de moi avec toutes leurs idoles.
Acciocchè la casa d’Israele sia presa per lo suo proprio cuore; conciossiachè si sieno tutti alienati da me per li loro idoli.
Para que eu possa apanhar a casa de Israel no seu coração, porquanto todos se apartaram de mim para seguirem os seus ídolos.
為要奪回 以色列 家的心,他們全都拜偶像,與我疏遠了。』
