CroatianSveæenici pristadoše da ne uzimaju novac od naroda, ali ni Doma da ne popravljaju.
DanishPræsten Jojada tog så en Kiste, borede Hul i Låget og satte den ved Stenstøtten til højre for Indgangen til HERRENs Hus, og der lagde Præsterne, der holdt Vagt ved Dørtærskelen, alle de Penge, der indkom i HERRENs Hus.
DutchMaar de priester Jojada nam een kist, en boorde een gat in haar deksel, en zette die bij het altaar ter rechterhand, als iemand inkwam in het huis des HEEREN; en de priesters, die den dorpel bewaarden, staken daarin al het geld, dat ten huize des HEEREN gebracht werd.
FinnishMutta pappi Joojada otti arkun ja kaivoi reiän sen kanteen ja asetti sen alttarin ääreen, oikealle puolelle, kun mennään Herran temppeliin. Ja papit, jotka vartioivat ovea, panivat siihen kaiken rahan, mikä Herran temppeliin tuotiin.
FrenchAlors le sacrificateur Jehojada prit un coffre, perça un trou dans son couvercle, et le plaça à côté de l`autel, à droite, sur le passage par lequel on entrait à la maison de l`Éternel. Les sacrificateurs qui avaient la garde du seuil y mettaient tout l`argent qu`on apportait dans la maison de l`Éternel.
GermanDa nahm der Priester Jojada eine Lade und bohrte oben ein Loch darein und setzte sie zur rechten Hand neben den Altar, da man in das Haus des HERRN geht. Und die Priester, die an der Schwelle hüteten, taten darein alles Geld, das zu des HERRN Haus gebracht ward.
