En cuanto a ti, hijo de hombre, te he puesto como centinela para la casa de Israel. Escucharás la palabra de mi boca y les advertirás de mi parte.
Et toi, fils de l'homme, je t'ai établi comme sentinelle sur la maison d'Israël. Tu dois écouter la parole qui sort de ma bouche, et les avertir de ma part.
Così, figliuol d’uomo, io ti ho costituito vedetta, alla casa d’Israele; ascolta adunque la parola dalla mia bocca, ed ammoniscili da parte mia.
A ti, pois, ó filho do homem, te constituí por atalaia sobre a casa de Israel; tu, pois, ouvirás a palavra da minha boca, e lha anunciarás da minha parte.
「人子啊,我照樣立你作 以色列 家的守望者;你要聽我口中的話,替我警戒他們。
