| Croatian | Zato ovo govori Jahve o kralju asirskom: U ovaj grad on uæi neæe, ovamo strijele svoje neæe izmetati, k njemu neæe ni štit okrenuti, niti oko njega nasipe kopati. |
| Danish | Derfor, så siger HERREN om Assyrerkongen: I Byen her skal han ej komme ind, ej sende en Pil herind, ej nærme sig den med Skjolde eller opkaste Vold imod den; |
| Dutch | Daarom, zo zegt de HEERE van den koning van Assyrie: Hij zal in deze stad niet komen, noch daar een pijl inschieten; ook zal hij met geen schild daarvoor komen, en zal geen wal daartegen opwerpen. |
| Finnish | Sentähden, näin sanoo Herra Assurin kuninkaasta: Hän ei tule tähän kaupunkiin eikä siihen nuolta ammu, ei tuo sitä vastaan kilpeä eikä luo sitä vastaan vallia. |
| French | C`est pourquoi ainsi parle l`Éternel sur le roi d`Assyrie: Il n`entrera point dans cette ville, Il n`y lancera point de traits, Il ne lui présentera point de boucliers, Et il n`élèvera point de retranchements contre elle. |
| German | Darum spricht der HERR also vom König von Assyrien: Er soll nicht kommen in diese Stadt und soll auch keinen Pfeil dahin schießen und mit keinem Schilde davor kommen und soll keinen Wall um sie schütten; |
| Indonesian-Bahasa Sehari-hari | Inilah yang dikatakan TUHAN tentang raja Asyur: 'Ia tidak akan memasuki Yerusalem atau menembakkan panah ke kota itu. Prajurit-prajurit berperisai tak ada yang mendekati kota itu, dan di sekelilingnya tak akan dibangun tanggul pengepungan. |
| Indonesian-Terjemahan Lama | Maka sebab itu demikianlah firman Tuhan akan hal raja benua Asyur: Sekali-kali tiada ia akan masuk ke dalam negeri ini, atau memanahkan sebilah anak panah ke dalamnya dan tiada ia akan menghampiri dia dengan perisai, atau mendirikan kubu kelilingnya. |
