In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand.

Plötzlich müssen die Leute sterben und zu Mitternacht erschrecken und vergehen; die Mächtigen werden weggenommen nicht durch Menschenhand.
En un momento morirán, y a media noche Se alborotarán los pueblos, y pasarán, Y sin mano será quitado el poderoso.
En un instante mueren; a medianoche los pueblos se estremecen y desaparecen. El poderoso es quitado sin intervención de mano humana.
En un instant, ils perdent la vie; Au milieu de la nuit, un peuple chancelle et périt; Le puissant disparaît, sans la main d'aucun homme.
Essi muoiono in un momento, E di mezza notte tutto un popolo è conquassato, e perisce; E il potente è tolto via senza opera di mani.
Eles num momento morrem; e até à meia noite os povos são perturbados, e passam, e os poderosos serão tomados não por mão humana.
一瞬間他們就死亡。 百姓在半夜中被震動而去世; 有權力的被奪去,非藉人手。
