Und da er mich hingebracht hatte, siehe, da war ein Mann, des Ansehen war wie Erz; der hatte eine lange leinene Schnur und eine Meßrute in seiner Hand und stand unter dem Tor.
Y llevome allí, y he aquí un varón, cuyo aspecto era como aspecto de metal, y tenía un cordel de lino en su mano, y una caña de medir: y él estaba a la puerta.
Me llevó allí y vi a un hombre cuyo aspecto era como el bronce. Tenía en la mano un cordel de lino y una caña de medir, y estaba de pie en la puerta.
Il me conduisit là; et voici, il y avait un homme dont l'aspect était comme l'aspect de l'airain; il avait dans la main un cordeau de lin et une canne pour mesurer, et il se tenait à la porte.
E come egli mi ebbe menato là, ecco un uomo, il cui sembiante pareva di rame, ed avea in mano un fil di lino, ed una canna da misurare; ed egli stava in piè in su la porta.
E, havendo-me levado ali, eis que um homem cuja aparência era como a do bronze, tendo um cordel de linho na sua mão e uma cana de medir, e estava em pé na porta.
