Elberfelder Bibel (ELB)Deutsch
daß, wenn ihr mir den Traum nicht kundtut, es bei eurem Urteil verbleibt; denn ihr habt euch verabredet, Lug und Trug vor mir zu reden, bis die Zeit sich ändere. Darum saget mir den Traum, und ich werde wissen, daß ihr mir seine Deutung anzeigen könnt.
Reina-Valera (RV)Español
Si no me mostráis el sueño, una sola sentencia será de vosotros. Ciertamente preparáis respuesta mentirosa y perversa que decir delante de mí, entre tanto que se muda el tiempo: por tanto, decidme el sueño, para que yo entienda que me podéis mostrar su declaración.
Bíblia Livre (BL)Português
Pois se não me mostrardes o sonho, haverá uma única sentença para vós. Pois preparastes uma resposta mentirosa e perversa para dizer diante de mim, até que o tempo se mude; portanto, dizei-me o sonho, para que eu tenha certeza de que podeis me mostrar sua interpretação.
Nova Versão (NVA)Português
Mas, se não me contardes o meu sonho, só há uma sentença para vós. Vós decidistes preparar palavras falsas e enganosas que, juntos, concordastes em dizer-me até que eu mude de ideia. Então, dizei-me o sonho e eu saberei que vós podeis interpretá-lo para mim".
