Denn so spricht der HERR: Siehe, er fliegt daher wie ein Adler und breitet seine Flügel aus über Moab.
Porque así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí que como águila volará, y extenderá sus alas a Moab.

Car ainsi parle l'Eternel: Voici, il vole comme l'aigle, Et il étend ses ailes sur Moab.
Perciocchè, così ha detto il Signore: Ecco, colui volerà come un’aquila, e spiegherà le sue ale contro a Moab.
Porque assim diz o SENHOR: Eis que voará como a águia, e estenderá as suas asas sobre Moabe.
耶和華如此說: 看哪,仇敵必如鷹展翅快飛, 攻擊 摩押 。
