Wir aber sprachen: wir können nicht hinabziehen, es sei denn unser jüngster Bruder mit uns, so wollen wir hinabziehen; denn wir können des Mannes Angesicht nicht sehen, wenn unser jüngster Bruder nicht mit uns ist.
Y nosotros respondimos: No podemos ir: si nuestro hermano fuere con nosotros, iremos; porque no podemos ver el rostro del varón, no estando con nosotros nuestro hermano el menor.
Respondimos: “No podemos bajar. Si nuestro hermano menor va con nosotros, bajaremos, porque no podemos ver el rostro de aquel hombre si nuestro hermano menor no está con nosotros”.
Nous avons répondu: Nous ne pouvons pas descendre; mais, si notre jeune frère est avec nous, nous descendrons, car nous ne pouvons pas voir la face de cet homme, à moins que notre jeune frère ne soit avec nous.
E noi dicemmo: Noi non possiamo scender là; ma, se il nostro fratello minore è con noi, noi vi scenderemo; perciocchè noi non possiam veder la faccia di quell’uomo, se il nostro fratel minore non è con noi.
E nós dissemos: Não poderemos descer; mas, se nosso irmão menor for conosco, desceremos; pois não poderemos ver a face do homem se este nosso irmão menor não estiver conosco.
我們說:『我們不能下去。最小的弟弟若和我們同去,我們就可以下去。因為,最小的弟弟若不和我們同去,我們必不能見那人的面。』
