РСП (66 кн.) И приду к вам для суда и буду скорым обличителем чародеев и прелюбодеев и тех, которые клянутся ложно и удерживают плату у наемника, притесняют вдову и сироту, и отталкивают пришельца, и Меня не боятся, говорит Господь Саваоф.

НРП «Я приду к вам для суда. Я не замедлю принести свидетельство против чародеев, нарушителей супружеской верности и клятвопреступников, против тех, кто удерживает у батраков заработанное, кто притесняет вдов и сирот, лишает чужеземцев правосудия и не боится Меня», — говорит Господь Сил.

Заокская (Кулаков) «Я иду, близок час суда Моего, и Я немедля обличу чародеев и прелюбодеев, тех, кто ложно клянется и угнетает наемных работников, обижает вдову и сироту, странника гонит и не благоговеет предо Мною», — говорит Господь Воинств.

СП (БЛ) Затем Я приду к вам и стану судить справедливым судом. Я буду свидетелем против колдунов и чародеев, прелюбодеев и тех людей, которые дают ложные клятвы, тех, кто обманывает работников, притесняет вдов и сирот, лишает иноземцев справедливого суда, не боится и не почитает Меня!» — сказал Господь Всемогущий.
