But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Den Vollkommenen aber gehört starke Speise, die durch Gewohnheit haben geübte Sinne zu unterscheiden Gutes und Böses.
Mas la vianda firme es para los perfectos, para los que por la costumbre tienen los sentidos ejercitados en el discernimiento del bien y del mal.
Pero el alimento sólido es para los maduros, los que mediante la práctica tienen sus sentidos ejercitados para distinguir el bien y el mal.
Mais la nourriture solide est pour les hommes faits, pour ceux dont le jugement est exercé par l'usage à discerner ce qui est bien et ce qui est mal.
Ma il cibo sodo è per i compiuti, i quali, per l’abitudine, hanno i sensi esercitati a discernere il bene ed il male
Mas o mantimento sólido é para os perfeitos, os quais, em razão do costume, têm os sentidos exercitados para discernir tanto o bem como o mal.
惟獨長大成人的才能吃乾糧,他們的心竅因練習而靈活,能分辨善惡了。
