Merket ihr noch nicht, daß alles, was zum Munde eingeht, das geht in den Bauch und wird durch den natürlichen Gang ausgeworfen?
¿No entendéis aún, que todo lo que entra en la boca, va al vientre, y es echado en la letrina?
¿No comprenden que todo lo que entra en la boca pasa al vientre y se expulsa a la letrina?
Ne comprenez-vous pas que tout ce qui entre dans la bouche va dans le ventre, puis est jeté dans les lieux secrets?
Non intendete voi ancora che tutto ciò che entra nella bocca se ne va nel ventre, e poi è gettato fuori nella latrina?
Ainda não compreendeis que tudo o que entra pela boca desce para o ventre, e é lançado fora?
難道你們不了解,凡進到口裏的,是經過肚子,又排入廁所嗎?
