“Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through [the waters], waters that were to the waist.”

“Il mesura encore mille coudées, et me fit traverser l`eau, et j`avais de l`eau jusqu`aux genoux. Il mesura encore mille coudées, et me fit traverser, et j`avais de l`eau jusqu`aux reins.”
