eins aber ist not. Maria hat das gute Teil erwählt; das soll nicht von ihr genommen werden.
Empero una cosa es necesaria; y María escogió la buena parte, la cual no le será quitada.
pero se necesitan pocas cosas, o una sola. María ha escogido la buena parte, y no le será quitada».
Une seule chose est nécessaire. Marie a choisi la bonne part, qui ne lui sera point ôtée.
Or d’una sola cosa fa bisogno. Ma Maria ha scelta la buona parte, la qual non le sarà tolta
E Maria escolheu a boa parte, a qual não lhe será tirada.
但是不可少的只有一件 。 馬利亞 已經選擇了那上好的福分,是沒有人能從她奪去的。」
