And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of their hands.

Und er wird seine Hände ausbreiten mitten unter sie, wie sie ein Schwimmer ausbreitet, zu schwimmen; und wird ihre Pracht erniedrigen mit den Armen seiner Hände
Y extenderá su mano por en medio de él, como la extiende el nadador para nadar: y abatirá su soberbia con los miembros de sus manos:
Extenderá allí sus manos, como las extiende el nadador para nadar; pero abatirá su orgullo junto con la destreza de sus manos.
Au milieu de cette mare, il étend ses mains, Comme le nageur les étend pour nager; Mais l'Eternel abat son orgueil, Et déjoue l'artifice de ses mains.
Ed egli stenderà le sue mani in mezzo di esso, come chi nuota stende le mani per nuotare; ed abbasserà la sua alterezza, co’ colpi rovesci delle sue mani.
E estenderá as suas mãos por entre eles, como as estende o nadador para nadar; e abaterá a sua altivez com as ciladas das suas mãos.
他們要在其中伸展雙手,好像游泳的人伸手游泳。他們的手雖靈巧,耶和華卻使他們的驕傲降為卑下。
