    Nicht alles, was konfrontiert ist, kann geändert werden, aber nichts kann geändert werden, bis es konfrontiert ist.

    ne ĉio, kio estas alfrontita, povas ŝanĝiĝi, sed nenio povas ŝanĝiĝi ĝis ĝi estas alfrontita.

    no se puede cambiar todo lo que se enfrenta, pero nada se puede cambiar hasta que se enfrenta.

    tout ce qui est confronté ne peut pas être changé, mais rien ne peut être changé tant qu'il n'est pas confronté.

    जो कुछ सामने आया है उसे बदला नहीं जा सकता, लेकिन जब तक उसका सामना नहीं किया जाता तब तक कुछ भी नहीं बदला जा सकता।

    non tutto ciò che è affrontato può essere cambiato, ma niente può essere cambiato finché non è affrontato.

    niet alles wat wordt geconfronteerd, kan worden gewijzigd, maar niets kan worden gewijzigd totdat het wordt geconfronteerd.

    ikke alt som blir møtt kan endres, men ingenting kan endres før det blir møtt.

    nu tot ceea ce se confruntă poate fi schimbat, dar nimic nu poate fi schimbat până când este înfruntat.

    не все, с чем сталкиваются, можно изменить, но ничего нельзя изменить, пока не столкнется

    karşı karşıya kalan her şey değiştirilemez, ancak karşı karşıya gelene kadar hiçbir şey değiştirilemez.

    ہر ایک چیز کا سامنا نہیں کیا جاسکتا ہے جسے تبدیل نہیں کیا جاسکتا ہے ، لیکن اس وقت تک کسی چیز کو تبدیل نہیں کیا جاسکتا۔
