Wisset aber, daß er hernach, da er den Segen ererben wollte, verworfen ward; denn er fand keinen Raum zur Buße, wiewohl er sie mit Tränen suchte.
Porque ya sabéis que aun después, deseando heredar la bendición, fue reprobado (que no halló lugar de arrepentimiento), aunque la procuró con lágrimas.
Porque saben que aun después, cuando quiso heredar la bendición, fue rechazado, pues no halló oportunidad para el arrepentimiento, aunque la buscó con lágrimas.
Vous savez que, plus tard, voulant obtenir la bénédiction, il fut rejeté, quoiqu'il la sollicitât avec larmes; car son repentir ne put avoir aucun effet.
Poichè voi sapete che anche poi appresso, volendo eredar la benedizione, fu riprovato; perciocchè non trovò luogo a pentimento, benchè richiedesse quella con lagrime
Porque bem sabeis que, querendo ele ainda depois herdar a bênção, foi rejeitado, porque não achou lugar de arrependimento, ainda que com lágrimas o buscou.
後來你們知道,他想要承受父親的祝福,竟被拒絕,雖然流著淚苦求,卻得不著門路使他父親回心轉意。
