Denn das wäre ein Feuer, das bis in den Abgrund verzehrte und all mein Einkommen auswurzelte.
Porque es fuego que devoraría hasta el sepulcro, Y desarraigaría toda mi hacienda.
Es un fuego que devora hasta el Abadón y arrancaría de raíz toda mi cosecha.
C'est un feu qui dévore jusqu'à la ruine, Et qui aurait détruit toute ma richesse.
Conciossiachè quello sarebbe stato un fuoco Che mi avrebbe consumato fino a perdizione, E avrebbe diradicata tutta la mia rendita.
Porque é fogo que consome até à perdição, e desarraigaria toda a minha renda.
這是一場火,直燒到毀滅 , 必拔除我一切的家產。
