Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have diminished thine ordinary food, and delivered thee unto the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, which are ashamed of thy lewd way.

Ich aber streckte meine Hand aus wider dich und brach dir an deiner Nahrung ab und übergab dich in den Willen deiner Feinde, der Töchter der Philister, welche sich schämten vor deinem verruchten Wesen.
Por tanto, he aquí que yo extendí sobre ti mi mano, y disminuí tu provisión ordinaria, y te entregué a la voluntad de las hijas de los Filisteos que te aborrecen, las cuales se avergüenzan de tu camino deshonesto.
Por eso extendí mi mano contra ti y reduje tu ración. Te entregué al deseo de las que te odian, las hijas de los filisteos, que se avergonzaban de tu conducta depravada.
Et voici, j'ai étendu ma main contre toi, j'ai diminué la part que je t'avais assignée, je t'ai livrée à la volonté de tes ennemies, les filles des Philistins, qui ont rougi de ta conduite criminelle.
Laonde, ecco, io ho stesa la mia mano sopra te, ed ho diminuita la tua provvisione ordinaria, e ti ho abbandonata alla voglia delle figliuole dei Filistei, che ti hanno in odio, ed hanno vergogna del tuo scellerato procedere.
Por isso estendi a minha mão sobre ti, e diminuí a tua porção; e te entreguei à vontade das que te odeiam, das filhas dos filisteus, as quais se envergonhavam do teu caminho depravado.
