Then said I unto them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

und sprach zu ihnen: Ein jeglicher werfe weg die Greuel vor seinen Augen, und verunreinigt euch nicht an den Götzen Ägyptens! denn ich bin der HERR, euer Gott.
Entonces les dije: Cada uno eche de sí cada uno de las abominaciones de sus ojos, y no os contaminéis en los ídolos de Egipto. Yo soy Jehová vuestro Dios.
Les dije: “Que cada uno arroje las cosas detestables que tiene ante sus ojos. No se contaminen con los ídolos de Egipto. Yo soy Jehová, su Dios”.
Je leur dis: Rejetez chacun les abominations qui attirent vos regards, et ne vous souillez pas par les idoles de l'Egypte! Je suis l'Eternel, votre Dieu.
E dissi loro: Gettate via ciascuno le abbominazioni de’ suoi occhi, e non vi contaminate negl’idoli di Egitto; io sono il Signore Iddio vostro.
Então lhes disse: Cada um lance de si as abominações dos seus olhos, e não vos contamineis com os ídolos do Egito; eu sou o SENHOR vosso Deus.
我對他們說,你們各人要拋棄眼中所喜愛的可憎之物,不可用 埃及 的偶像玷污自己。我是耶和華─你們的上帝。
