Ihr habt allezeit Arme bei euch; mich aber habt ihr nicht allezeit.
Porque siempre tendréis pobres con vosotros, mas a mí no siempre me tendréis.
Porque a los pobres los tienen siempre con ustedes, pero a mí no me tendrán siempre.
car vous avez toujours des pauvres avec vous, mais vous ne m'avez pas toujours.
Perciocchè sempre avete i poveri con voi; ma me non mi avete sempre.
Porquanto sempre tendes convosco os pobres, mas a mim não me haveis de ter sempre.
因為常有窮人和你們在一起,但是你們不常有我。
