Da sprach Jesus zu ihnen: Meine Seele ist betrübt bis an den Tod; bleibet hier und wachet mit mir!
Entonces Jesús les dice: Mi alma está muy triste hasta la muerte; quedaos aquí, y velad conmigo.
Entonces les dijo: «Mi alma está profundamente triste, hasta la muerte. Quédense aquí y velen conmigo».
Il leur dit alors: Mon âme est triste jusqu'à la mort; restez ici, et veillez avec moi.
Allora egli disse loro: L’anima mia è occupata di tristizia infino alla morte; dimorate qui, e vegliate meco.
Então lhes disse: A minha alma está cheia de tristeza até a morte; ficai aqui, e velai comigo.
就對他們說:「我心裏非常憂傷,幾乎要死;你們留在這裏,和我一同警醒。」
