So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before thy face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.

So wird meine Gerechtigkeit zeugen heute oder morgen, wenn es kommt, daß ich meinen Lohn von dir nehmen soll; also daß, was nicht gefleckt oder bunt unter den Ziegen und nicht schwarz sein wird unter den Lämmern, das sei ein Diebstahl bei mir.
Así responderá por mí mi justicia mañana cuando me viniere mi salario delante de ti: toda la que no fuere pintada ni manchada en las cabras y de color oscuro en las ovejas mías, se me ha de tener por de hurto.
Mi honradez responderá por mí en el futuro, cuando vengas a revisar mi salario. Cualquier cabra que tenga y no sea ni moteada ni manchada, y cualquier oveja que no sea oscura, se considerará robada».
Ma droiture répondra pour moi demain, quand tu viendras voir mon salaire; tout ce qui ne sera pas tacheté et marqueté parmi les chèvres, et noir parmi les agneaux, ce sera de ma part un vol.
Così da questo dì innanzi, quando tu mi contenderai il mio salario, la mia giustizia risponderà per me nel tuo cospetto; tutto ciò che non sarà macchiato o vaiolato fra le capre, e di color fosco fra le pecore, e sarà trovato appo me, sarà furto.
Assim testificará por mim a minha justiça no dia de amanhã, quando vieres e o meu salário estiver diante de tua face; tudo o que não for salpicado e malhado entre as cabras e moreno entre os cordeiros, ser-me-á por furto.
以後你來當面查看我的工資,任何我這裏的山羊不是有點有斑的,小綿羊不是黑色的,就算是我偷的。這就可以證明我是正直的。」
