For as it is distasteful to drink wine alone and in like manner again to drink water alone, while the mingling of wine with water at once giveth full pleasantness to the flavor; so also the fashioning of the language delighteth the ears of them that read the story. And here shall be the end.

Dutch Bible, Petrus Canisius
Want zoals het verkeerd is, uitsluitend wijn of uitsluitend water te drinken, terwijl wijn-met-water aangenaam is en de smaak volkomen bevredigt, zo is ook in een boek het samengaan van stof en stijl een genot voor hen die het lezen. En dit is het eind.

French Free Holy Bible for the World
Car, de même qu'il est désagréable de boire du vin seul et de même de boire de l'eau seule, tandis que le mélange du vin et de l'eau en une seule fois donne toute sa saveur agréable, de même le façonnement de la langue réjouit les oreilles de ceux qui lisent l'histoire. Voici la fin.
Spanish BLL
Es como cuando vas a tomar: aventarte un vaso de puro vino cae pesado, y puro agua sabe a nada. Pero cuando le echas tantita agua al vino, queda al puro tiro y hasta da gusto tomárselo. Pues así pasa con lo que uno escribe, cuando le buscas las palabras bonitas, la gente lo lee más a gusto y le agrada más al oído. Y hasta aquí llegamos con el cuento.
Spanish Free Bible for the World
Porque así como es desagradable beber vino solo y de igual manera beber agua sola, mientras que la mezcla de vino con agua da enseguida pleno deleite al paladar; así también la elegancia del lenguaje deleita los oídos de quienes leen la historia. Y aquí está el final.
Croatian Bible
Jer kao što je štetno piti samo vino ili samu vodu, dok je vino pomiješano s vodom tečnije i ugodnije, tako se i pravilno raspoređen prikaz sviđa ušima onih koji knjigu slušaju.
