Es ist aber leichter, daß Himmel und Erde vergehen, denn daß ein Tüttel am Gesetz falle.
Empero más fácil cosa es pasar el cielo y la tierra, que frustrarse un tilde de la ley.
Pero es más fácil que pasen el cielo y la tierra que caiga un solo trazo de la ley.
Il est plus facile que le ciel et la terre passent, qu'il ne l'est qu'un seul trait de lettre de la loi vienne à tomber.
Or egli è più agevole che il cielo e la terra passino, che non che un sol punto della legge cada.
E é mais fácil passar o céu e a terra do que cair um til da lei.
天地廢去比律法的一點一畫落空還要容易。
