And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

Ich will den Erdboden heimsuchen um seiner Bosheit willen und will dem Hochmut der Stolzen ein Ende machen und die Hoffart der Gewaltigen demütigen,
Y visitaré la maldad sobre el mundo, y sobre los impíos su iniquidad; y haré que cese la arrogancia de los soberbios, y abatiré la altivez de los fuertes.
«Castigaré al mundo por su maldad y a los malvados por su culpa; pondré fin a la arrogancia de los soberbios y abatiré el orgullo de los tiranos.
Je punirai le monde pour sa malice, Et les méchants pour leurs iniquités; Je ferai cesser l'orgueil des hautains, Et j'abattrai l'arrogance des tyrans.
Ed io, dice il Signore, punirò il mondo della sua malvagità, e gli empi della loro iniquità; e farò cessar l’alterezza de’ superbi, ed abbatterò l’orgoglio de’ violenti.
E visitarei sobre o mundo a maldade, e sobre os ímpios a sua iniqüidade; e farei cessar a arrogância dos atrevidos, e abaterei a soberba dos tiranos.
我必因邪惡懲罰世界, 因罪孽懲罰惡人, 我要止息驕傲人的狂妄, 制伏殘暴者的傲慢。
