Dann werden zwei auf dem Felde sein; einer wird angenommen, und der andere wird verlassen werden.

Entonces habrá dos en el campo: uno será llevado y el otro dejado.
Alors, de deux hommes qui seront dans un champ, l'un sera pris et l'autre laissé;
Allora due saranno nella campagna; l’uno sarà preso, e l’altro lasciato.
Então, estando dois no campo, será levado um, e deixado o outro;
那時,兩個人在田裏,一個被接去,一個被撇下。
