DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

En bemoei u niet met het vermogen van den wees, behalve om het te vermeerderen, tot hij zijn ouderdom van sterkte heeft bereikt, en kom uw verbond na; want de vervulling van uw verbond zal u hier namaals worden toegerekend.

Non mettete le mani sopra i beni degli orfani, a meno che non sia con intenzione lodevole (di farli accrescere) finchè non siano arrivati all’età stabilita. Adempite i vostr’impegni, poichè vi se ne chiederà conto.
