¿µ¾î¼º°æ
Therefore as I live, saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrha, the dryness of thorns, and heaps of salt, and a desert even for ever: the remnant of my people shall make a spoil of them, and the residue of my nation shall possess them.
King James
¿µ¾î¼º°æ
Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall spoil them, and the remnant of my people shall possess them.
Louis Second
ºÒ¾î¼º°æ
C'est pourquoi, je suis vivant! dit l'Éternel des armées, le Dieu d'Israël, Moab sera comme Sodome, et les enfants d'Ammon comme Gomorrhe, Un lieu couvert de ronces, une mine de sel, un désert pour toujours; Le reste de mon peuple les pillera, Le reste de ma nation les possédera
Martin Luther
µ¶¾î¼º°æ
Wohlan, so wahr ich lebe, spricht der HErr Zebaoth, der GOtt Israels: Moab soll wie Sodom und die Kinder Ammon wie Gomorrha werden, ja, wie ein Nesselstrauch und Salzgrube und eine ewige Wüstnis. Die übrigen meines Volks sollen sie rauben und die Überbliebenen meines Volks sollen sie erben.
Vulgate

propterea vivo ego dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel quia Moab ut Sodoma erit et filii Ammon quasi Gomorra siccitas spinarum et acervi salis et desertum usque in aeternum reliquiae populi mei diripient illos residui gentis meae possidebunt eos
