Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.

Denselben werde ich mir sehen, und meine Augen werden ihn schauen, und kein Fremder. Darnach sehnen sich meine Nieren in meinem Schoß.
Al cual yo tengo de ver por mí, Y mis ojos lo verán, y no otro, Aunque mis riñones se consuman dentro de mí.
Yo mismo lo contemplaré; lo verán mis ojos, y no los de otro. Mis entrañas desfallecen dentro de mí.
Je le verrai, et il me sera favorable; Mes yeux le verront, et non ceux d'un autre; Mon âme languit d'attente au dedans de moi.
Il quale io vedrò, gli occhi miei lo vedranno, e non un altro; Le mie reni si consumano in me.
Vê-lo-ei, por mim mesmo, e os meus olhos, e não outros o contemplarão; e por isso os meus rins se consomem no meu interior.
我自己要見他, 親眼要看他,並不像陌生人。 我的心腸在我裏面耗盡了!
