daß ihr sollt eurer Söhne und Töchter Fleisch essen.
Y comeréis las carnes de vuestros hijos, y comeréis las carnes de vuestras hijas:
Comerán la carne de sus hijos y comerán la carne de sus hijas.
Vous mangerez la chair de vos fils, et vous mangerez la chair de vos filles.
E mangerete la carne de’ vostri figliuoli, e la carne delle vostre figliuole.
Porque comereis a carne de vossos filhos, e a carne de vossas filhas.
你們要吃你們兒子的肉,也要吃你們女兒的肉。
