Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.

Darum sind auch von einem, wiewohl erstorbenen Leibes, viele geboren wie die Sterne am Himmel und wie der Sand am Rande des Meeres, der unzählig ist.
Por lo cual también, de uno, y ése ya amortecido, salieron como las estrellas del cielo en multitud, y como la arena innumerable que está a la orilla de la mar.
Por eso, de un solo hombre, y ese ya como muerto, nació una descendencia tan numerosa como las estrellas del cielo e incontable como la arena a la orilla del mar.
C'est pourquoi d'un seul homme, déjà usé de corps, naquit une postérité nombreuse comme les étoiles du ciel, comme le sable qui est sur le bord de la mer et qu'on ne peut compter.
Perciò ancora da uno, e quello già ammortato, son nati discendenti, in moltitudine come le stelle del cielo, e come le rena innumerabile che è lungo il lito del mare.
Por isso também de um, e esse já amortecido, descenderam tantos, em multidão, como as estrelas do céu, e como a areia inumerável que está na praia do mar.
所以,從一個彷彿已死的人竟生出子孫,如同天上的星那樣眾多,海邊的沙那樣無數。
