And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.

Und die Männer vor der Tür wurden mit Blindheit geschlagen, klein und groß, bis sie müde wurden und die Tür nicht finden konnten.
Y a los hombres que estaban a la puerta de la casa desde el menor hasta el mayor, hirieron con ceguera; mas ellos se fatigaban por hallar la puerta.
Et ils frappèrent d'aveuglement les gens qui étaient à l'entrée de la maison, depuis le plus petit jusqu'au plus grand, de sorte qu'ils se donnèrent une peine inutile pour trouver la porte.
E percossero d’abbarbaglio gli uomini ch’erano alla porta della casa, dal minore al maggiore; onde essi si stancarono, per trovar la porta
E feriram de cegueira os homens que estavam à porta da casa, desde o menor até ao maior, de maneira que se cansaram para achar a porta.
他們擊打門外的人,無論老少,都眼睛迷糊,找門找得很煩躁。
