und im obersten Korbe allerlei gebackene Speise für den Pharao; und die Vögel aßen aus dem Korbe auf meinem Haupt.
Y en el canastillo más alto había de todas las viandas de Faraón, obra de panadero; y que las aves las comían del canastillo de sobre mi cabeza.
Dans la corbeille la plus élevée il y avait pour Pharaon des mets de toute espèce, cuits au four; et les oiseaux les mangeaient dans la corbeille au-dessus de ma tête.
E nel più alto paniere vi erano di tutte le vivande di Faraone, di lavoro di fornaio; e gli uccelli le mangiavano di dentro quel paniere d’in sul mio capo.
E no cesto mais alto havia de todos os manjares de Faraó, obra de padeiro; e as aves o comiam do cesto, de sobre a minha cabeça.
最上面的籃子裏有為法老烤的各樣食物,有飛鳥來吃我頭上籃子裏的食物。」
