For the idols have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain: therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled, because there was no shepherd.

Denn die Götzen reden, was eitel ist; und die Wahrsager sehen Lüge und reden vergebliche Träume, und ihr Trösten ist nichts; darum gehen sie in der Irre wie eine Herde und sind verschmachtet, weil kein Hirte da ist.
Porque las imágenes han hablado vanidad, y los adivinos han visto mentira, y han hablado sueños vanos, en vano consuelan: por lo cual se fueron ellos como ovejas, fueron humillados porque no tuvieron pastor.
Porque los ídolos domésticos hablan engaño; los adivinos ven mentira, cuentan sueños falsos y ofrecen un consuelo vacío. Por eso el pueblo vaga como ovejas y sufre por falta de pastor.
Car les théraphim ont des paroles de néant, Les devins prophétisent des faussetés, Les songes mentent et consolent par la vanité. C'est pourquoi ils sont errants comme un troupeau, Ils sont malheureux parce qu'il n'y a point de pasteur.
Conciossiachè gl’idoli abbian detta menzogna, e gl’indovini abbian vedute visioni di falsità, e i sognatori abbian detta vanità, ed abbian date vane consolazioni; perciò il popolo se n’è andato qua e là, a guisa di pecore, ed è stato oppressato; perciocchè non vi era alcun pastore.
Porque os ídolos têm falado vaidade, e os adivinhos têm visto mentira, e contam sonhos falsos; com vaidade consolam, por isso seguem o seu caminho como ovelhas; estão aflitos, porque não há pastor.
因為家中神像所言的是虛空, 占卜者所見的是虛假, 他們講說假夢, 徒然安慰人。 所以眾人如羊流離, 因無牧人就受欺壓。
