Denn wer sich selbst erhöht, der soll erniedrigt werden; und wer sich selbst erniedrigt, der soll erhöht werden.
Porque cualquiera que se ensalza, será humillado; y el que se humilla, será ensalzado.
Car quiconque s'élève sera abaissé, et quiconque s'abaisse sera élevé.
Perciocchè chiunque s’innalza sarà abbassato, e chi si abbassa sarà innalzato.
Porquanto qualquer que a si mesmo se exaltar será humilhado, e aquele que a si mesmo se humilhar será exaltado.
因為凡自高的,必降為卑;自甘卑微的,必升為高。」
