German Bible Translations

Prediger 9:12 / Luther
12. Auch weiß der Mensch seine Zeit nicht; sondern, wie die Fische gefangen werden mit einem verderblichen Haken, und wie die Vögel mit einem Strick gefangen werden, so werden auch die Menschen berückt zur bösen Zeit, wenn sie plötzlich über sie fällt. {~}
Prediger 9:12 / Schlachter
12. Denn auch seine Zeit kennt der Mensch nicht, so wenig wie die Fische, welche mit dem bösen Netze gefangen werden, und wie die Vögel, welche man mit der Schlinge fängt; gleich diesen werden auch die Menschenkinder gefangen zur Zeit des Unglücks, wenn es plötzlich über sie kommt.
