So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

und trieb Adam aus und lagerte vor den Garten Eden die Cherubim mit dem bloßen, hauenden Schwert, zu bewahren den Weg zu dem Baum des Lebens.
Echó, pues, fuera al hombre, y puso al oriente del huerto de Edén querubines, y una espada encendida que se revolvía a todos lados, para guardar el camino del árbol de la vida.
Así que expulsó al hombre, y al oriente del huerto de Edén puso a los querubines y la llama de una espada que giraba para custodiar el camino al árbol de la vida.
C'est ainsi qu'il chassa Adam; et il mit à l'orient du jardin d'Eden les chérubins qui agitent une épée flamboyante, pour garder le chemin de l'arbre de vie.
Così egli cacciò l’uomo, e pose dei Cherubini davanti al giardino di Eden, con una spada fiammeggiante che si vibrava in giro, per guardar la via dell’albero della vita
E havendo lançado fora o homem, pôs querubins ao oriente do jardim do Éden, e uma espada inflamada que andava ao redor, para guardar o caminho da árvore da vida.
耶和華上帝把那人趕出去,就在 伊甸園 東邊安設基路伯和發出火焰轉動的劍,把守生命樹的道路。
