Er sprach: Lege deine Hand nicht an den Knaben und tue ihm nichts; denn nun weiß ich, daß du Gott fürchtest und hast deines einzigen Sohnes nicht verschont um meinetwillen.
Y dijo: No extiendas tu mano sobre el muchacho, ni le hagas nada; que ya conozco que temes a Dios, pues que no me rehusaste tu hijo, tu único;
El ángel dijo: «No extiendas tu mano contra el muchacho ni le hagas nada. Ahora sé que temes a Dios, pues no me has negado a tu hijo, a tu único».
L'ange dit: N'avance pas ta main sur l'enfant, et ne lui fais rien; car je sais maintenant que tu crains Dieu, et que tu ne m'as pas refusé ton fils, ton unique.
E l’Angelo gli disse: Non metter la mano addosso al fanciullo, e non fargli nulla; perciocchè ora conosco che tu temi Iddio, poichè tu non mi hai dinegato il tuo figliuolo, il tuo unico.
Então disse: Não estendas a tua mão sobre o moço, e não lhe faças nada; porquanto agora sei que temes a Deus, e não me negaste o teu filho, o teu único filho.
天使說:「不可在這孩子身上下手!一點也不可傷害他!現在我知道你是敬畏上帝的人了,因為你沒有把你的兒子,就是你的獨子,留下不給我。」
