Da sprach Jakob, ihr Vater, zu ihnen: Ihr beraubt mich meiner Kinder; Joseph ist nicht mehr vorhanden, Simeon ist nicht mehr vorhanden, Benjamin wollt ihr hinnehmen; es geht alles über mich.
Entonces su padre Jacob les dijo: Habéisme privado de mis hijos; José no parece, ni Simeón tampoco, y a Benjamín le llevaréis: contra mí son todas estas cosas.
Jacob, su padre, les dijo: «Me han privado de mis hijos. José ya no está, Simeón ya no está, ¡y se llevarán a Benjamín! ¡Todo esto está contra mí!».
Jacob, leur père, leur dit: Vous me privez de mes enfants! Joseph n'est plus, Siméon n'est plus, et vous prendriez Benjamin! C'est sur moi que tout cela retombe.
E Giacobbe, lor padre, disse loro: Voi mi avete orbato di figliuoli; Giuseppe non è più, Simeone non è più, e ancora volete tormi Beniamino; tutte queste cose son contro a me.
Então Jacó, seu pai, disse-lhes: Tendes-me desfilhado; José já não existe e Simeão não está aqui; agora levareis a Benjamim. Todas estas coisas vieram sobre mim.
