und erwählte viel lieber, mit dem Volk Gottes Ungemach zu leiden, denn die zeitliche Ergötzung der Sünde zu haben,
Escogiendo antes ser afligido con el pueblo de Dios, que gozar de comodidades temporales de pecado.
y prefirió ser maltratado con el pueblo de Dios antes que disfrutar por un tiempo de los placeres del pecado.
aimant mieux être maltraité avec le peuple de Dieu que d'avoir pour un temps la jouissance du péché,
eleggendo innanzi d’essere afflitto col popol di Dio, che d’aver per un breve tempo godimento di peccato;
Escolhendo antes ser maltratado com o povo de Deus, do que por um pouco de tempo ter o gozo do pecado;
他寧可和上帝的百姓一同受苦,也不願在罪中享受片刻的歡樂。
