Ne mari on što će brzo umrijeti ni što mu je život kratkovjek, nego se natječe sa zlatarima i srebrnarima i nasljeduje mjedare, ponosan što pravi krivotvorine.
Dutch Bible, Petrus Canisius
Maar hij denkt er niet aan, dat hij eens zal verdwijnen, En dat hij een kortstondig leven heeft. Neen, hij wil zich met goud- en zilversmeden meten, Bootst den koperslager na, En gaat er nog groot op, dat hij namaak levert.
French Free Holy Bible for the World

Sed cura est illi non quia laboraturus est, nec quoniam brevis illi vita est: sed concertatur aurificibus et argentariis; sed et ærarios imitatur, et gloriam præfert, quoniam res supervacuas fingit.
Y todavía el terco se pone bien ansioso, no porque le vayan a faltar las fuerzas, ni porque sabe que va a vivir poquito tiempo; Sino que se anda comparando con los que trabajan el oro y la plata, y le copia a los que trabajan el bronce , y siente muy bonito andar haciendo dioses piratas.
