    Wenn man nicht weiß, zu welchem Hafen man segelt, ist kein Wind günstig.

    Si uno no sabe a qué puerto está navegando, no hay viento favorable.

    Jos ei tiedä, mihin satamaan on matkalla, mikään tuuli ei ole suotuisa.

    si on ne sait pas à quel port on navigue, aucun vent n'est favorable.

    se non si sa a quale porto si sta navigando, nessun vento è favorevole.

    どの港に向かっているのかわからない場合、風はありません。

    si non sit ignoranti quem portum navigantibus nullus suus ventus est.

    als men niet weet naar welke haven men vaart, staat er geen wind gunstig.

    se não se sabe para qual porto está navegando, nenhum vento é favorável.

    если человек не знает, к какому порту плыть, ветер не благоприятен.

    Om man inte vet till vilken hamn man seglar, är ingen vind gynnsam.

    如果不知道驶向哪个港口,则无风是有利的。
