und denke keiner Arges in seinem Herzen wider seinen Nächsten, und liebt nicht falsche Eide! denn solches alles hasse ich, spricht der HERR.
Y ninguno de vosotros piense mal en su corazón contra su prójimo, ni améis juramento falso: porque todas estas son cosas que aborrezco, dice Jehová
No tramen en su corazón el mal contra su prójimo ni amen el juramento falso, porque todas estas cosas las aborrezco», declara Jehová.
que nul en son coeur ne pense le mal contre son prochain, et n'aimez pas le faux serment, car ce sont là toutes choses que je hais, dit l'Eternel.
E non macchinate nel vostro cuore male alcuno l’un contro all’altro, e non amate il giuramento falso; perciocchè tutte queste cose son quelle che io odio
E nenhum de vós pense mal no seu coração contra o seu próximo, nem ameis o juramento falso; porque todas estas são coisas que eu odeio, diz o SENHOR.
誰都不可心裏謀害鄰舍,也不可喜愛起假誓,因為這些事都為我所恨惡。這是耶和華說的。」
