    οι κακοί άνθρωποι ζουν για να τρώνε και να πίνουν, ενώ καλοί άνθρωποι τρώνε και πίνουν για να ζήσουν.

    los hombres malos viven para poder comer y beber, mientras que los hombres buenos comen y beben para poder vivir.

    плохие люди живут, чтобы они могли есть и пить, тогда как хорошие люди едят и пьют, чтобы они могли жить.

    בייז מענטשן לעבן אַז זיי זאלן עסן און טרינקען, כוועראַז גוט מענטשן עסן און טרינקען אַז זיי זאלן לעבן.
