Seid fröhlich und getrost; es wird euch im Himmel wohl belohnt werden. Denn also haben sie verfolgt die Propheten, die vor euch gewesen sind.
Gozaos y alegraos; porque vuestra merced es grande en los cielos: que así persiguieron a los profetas que fueron antes de vosotros.
Alégrense y regocíjense, porque su recompensa es grande en los cielos; así persiguieron a los profetas que los precedieron.
Réjouissez-vous et soyez dans l'allégresse, parce que votre récompense sera grande dans les cieux; car c'est ainsi qu'on a persécuté les prophètes qui ont été avant vous.
Rallegratevi, e giubilate; perciocchè il vostro premio è grande ne’ cieli; perciocchè così hanno perseguitati i profeti che sono stati innanzi a voi
Exultai e alegrai-vos, porque é grande o vosso galardão nos céus; porque assim perseguiram os profetas que foram antes de vós.
要歡喜快樂,因為你們在天上的賞賜是很多的。在你們以前的先知,人也是這樣迫害他們。」
