Israel aber hat dem Gesetz der Gerechtigkeit nachgetrachtet, und hat das Gesetz der Gerechtigkeit nicht erreicht.

tandis qu'Israël, qui cherchait une loi de justice, n'est pas parvenu à cette loi.
Ma che Israele, che procacciava la legge della giustizia non è pervenuto alla legge della giustizia.
Mas Israel, que buscava a lei da justiça, não chegou à lei da justiça.
