So sind wir nun, liebe Brüder, nicht der Magd Kinder, sondern der Freien.
De manera, hermanos, que no somos hijos de la sierva, mas de la libre.
Por tanto, hermanos, no somos hijos de la esclava, sino de la mujer libre.
C'est pourquoi, frères, nous ne sommes pas enfants de l'esclave, mais de la femme libre.
Così adunque, fratelli, noi non siamo figliuoli della serva, ma della franca
De maneira que, irmãos, somos filhos, não da escrava, mas da livre.
弟兄們,這樣看來,我們不是使女的兒女,而是自由婦人的兒女了。
