Sie sprachen aber: Ja nicht auf das Fest, auf daß nicht ein Aufruhr werde im Volk!
Y decían: No en el día de la fiesta, porque no se haga alboroto en el pueblo.
Pero decían: «Durante la fiesta no, para que no se produzca un alboroto en el pueblo».
Mais ils dirent: Que ce ne soit pas pendant la fête, afin qu'il n'y ait pas de tumulte parmi le peuple.
Ma dicevano: Non convien farlo nella festa; acciocchè non si faccia tumulto fra il popolo
Mas diziam: Não durante a festa, para que não haja alvoroço entre o povo.
可是他們說:「不可在過節的日子,恐怕百姓生亂。」
