Denn der HERR wird die Pracht Jakobs wiederbringen wie die Pracht Israels; denn die Ableser haben sie abgelesen und ihre Reben verderbt.
El escudo de sus valientes será bermejo, los varones de su ejército vestidos de grana: el carro como fuego de hachas; el día que se aparejará, temblarán las hayas.
Los escudos de sus guerreros son rojos; sus hombres de guerra van vestidos de escarlata. El acero de los carros centellea como fuego el día de los preparativos, y se agitan las lanzas de ciprés.
Les boucliers de ses héros sont rouges, Les guerriers sont vêtus de pourpre; Avec le fer qui étincelle apparaissent les chars, Au jour qu'il a fixé pour la bataille, Et les lances sont agitées.
Gli scudi degli uomini prodi di colui son tinti di rosso, i suoi uomini di guerra son vestiti di scarlatto; nel giorno ch’egli ordinerà la battaglia, i carri si muoveranno con fuoco di faci, e gli abeti saranno scossi.
Os escudos dos seus fortes serão vermelhos, os homens valorosos estarão vestidos de escarlate, os carros como tochas flamejantes no dia da sua preparação, e os ciprestes serão terrivelmente abalados.
他勇士的盾牌是紅的, 精兵都穿朱紅衣服。 在預備打仗的日子, 戰車上的鐵閃爍如火 , 柏木的槍桿也已舉起 ;
