Original text and translations

German text Wenn ein starker Gewappneter seinen Palast bewahret, so bleibet das Seine mit Frieden. Aber: ein jeglich Reich, so es mit ihm selbst uneins wird, das wird wüste; und ein Haus fället über das andere. Luk.11,22/17b

English translation (literal translation) When a strong armed man guards his palace His property will remain in peace But any kingdom that is divided amongst itself Will be laid waste and one house will fall upon another… When a strong armed man guards his palace His property will remain in peace
