All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; that they eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee: there is none understanding in him.

Alle deine eigenen Bundesgenossen werden dich zum Lande hinausstoßen; die Leute, auf die du deinen Trost setztest, werden dich betrügen und überwältigen; die dein Brot essen, werden dich verraten, ehe du es merken wirst.
Hasta el término te hicieron llegar todos tus aliados; te han engañado tus pacíficos, prevalecieron contra ti; los que comían tu pan, pusieron el lazo debajo de ti: no hay en él entendimiento.
Todos tus aliados te han expulsado hasta la frontera; los que estaban en paz contigo te han engañado y han prevalecido contra ti. Los que comían tu pan han puesto una trampa debajo de ti. No hay entendimiento en él.
Tous tes alliés t'ont chassé jusqu'à la frontière, Tes amis t'ont joué, t'ont dominé, Ceux qui mangeaient ton pain t'ont dressé des pièges, Et tu n'as pas su t'en apercevoir!
Tutti i tuoi collegati ti hanno accompagnato fino a’ confini; quelli co’ quali tu vivevi in buona pace ti hanno ingannato, e ti hanno vinto; hanno messo il tuo pane per una trappola sotto di te; non vi è in lui alcuno intendimento.
Todos os teus confederados te levaram até a fronteira; os que gozam da tua paz te enganaram, prevaleceram contra ti; os que comem o teu pão puseram debaixo de ti uma armadilha; não há nele entendimento.
與你結盟的都驅趕你,直到邊界, 與你和好的欺騙你,勝過你, 吃你飯的人設下圈套陷害你─ 他卻毫無聰明 。
