Schämen müssen sich alle, die den Bildern dienen und sich der Götzen rühmen. Betet ihn an, alle Götter!
Avergüéncense todos los que sirven a las imágenes de talla, Los que se alaban de los ídolos: Los dioses todos a él se encorven.
Que se avergüencen todos los que sirven a imágenes talladas y se jactan de los ídolos. ¡Póstrense ante él, todos los dioses!
Ils sont confus, tous ceux qui servent les images, Qui se font gloire des idoles. Tous les dieux se prosternent devant lui.
Tutti quelli che servono alle sculture, Che si gloriano negl’idoli, sien confusi, adoratelo, dii tutti
Confundidos sejam todos os que servem imagens de escultura, que se gloriam de ídolos; prostrai-vos diante dele todos os deuses.
願所有事奉雕刻偶像、 靠虛無神明自誇的,都蒙羞愧。 萬神哪,你們都當拜他。
