¿µ¾î¼º°æ
And as wine deceiveth him that drinketh it: so shall the proud man be, and he shall not be honoured: who hath enlarged his desire like hell: and is himself like death, and he is never satisfied: but will gather together unto him all nations, and heap together unto him all people.
King James
¿µ¾î¼º°æ
Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people:
Louis Second
ºÒ¾î¼º°æ
Pareil à celui qui est ivre et arrogant, L'orgueilleux ne demeure pas tranquille; Il élargit sa bouche comme le séjour des morts, Il est insatiable comme la mort; Il attire à lui toutes les nations, Il assemble auprès de lui tous les peuples
Martin Luther
µ¶¾î¼º°æ
Aber der Wein betrügt den stolzen Mann, daß er nicht bleiben kann, welcher seine Seele aufsperret wie die Hölle, und ist gerade wie der Tod, der nicht zu sättigen ist, sondern rafft zu sich alle Heiden und sammelt zu sich alle Völker.
Vulgate
