Prediker 6:9 in verschillende vertalingen

Portugees

NBV-P Melhor é contentar-se com o que se tem do que sempre sonhar em ter mais. Isso também é ilusão, é correr atrás do vento.

VFL É melhor ser feliz com o que se tem do que querer sempre ter cada vez mais. Essa pressa por ter cada vez mais é ilusória. É como tratar de segurar o vento.
