Der Gottlose droht dem Gerechten und beißt seine Zähne zusammen über ihn.
Maquina el impío contra el justo, Y cruje sobre él sus dientes.
El malvado conspira contra el justo y rechina los dientes contra él.
Le méchant forme des projets contre le juste, Et il grince des dents contre lui.
L’empio fa delle macchinazioni contro al giusto, E digrigna i denti contro a lui.
O ímpio maquina contra o justo, e contra ele range os dentes.
惡人設謀要害義人, 向他咬牙。
