und bauen auch keine Häuser, darin wir wohnten, und haben weder Weinberge noch Äcker noch Samen,
Y de no edificar casas para nuestra morada, y de no tener viña, ni heredad, ni sementera.
no hemos construido casas para vivir, ni hemos tenido viñas, campos o sembrados.
nous ne bâtissons point de maisons pour nos demeures, et nous ne possédons ni vignes, ni champs, ni terres ensemencées;
e per non edificar case da abitarvi; e per non aver nè vigna, nè campo, nè sementa alcuna.
Nem edificamos casas para nossa habitação; nem temos vinha, nem campo, nem semente.
不蓋房子居住,我們也沒有葡萄園、田地和種子;
