Wie lange willst du in der Irre gehen, du abtrünnige Tochter? Denn der HERR wird ein Neues im Lande erschaffen: das Weib wird den Mann umgeben.
¿Hasta cuándo andarás errante, oh hija contumaz? porque Jehová criará una cosa nueva sobre la tierra: una hembra rodeará al varón.
¿Hasta cuándo andarás de un lado a otro, hija infiel? Porque Jehová ha creado algo nuevo en la tierra: una mujer rodeará a un hombre».
Jusques à quand seras-tu errante, Fille égarée? Car l'Eternel crée une chose nouvelle sur la terre: La femme recherchera l'homme.
Infino a quando andrai aggirandoti, figliuola ribella? conciossiachè il Signore abbia creata una cosa nuova nella terra: la femmina intornia l’uomo.
Até quando andarás errante, ó filha rebelde? Porque o SENHOR criou uma coisa nova sobre a terra; uma mulher cercará a um homem.
背道的女子啊, 你翻來覆去要到幾時呢? 耶和華在地上造了一件新事, 就是女子護衛男子。」
