    هكذا تكلم الشرير ، وبالضرورة ، استدعى الطاغية أفعاله الشيطانية.

    así habló el demonio, y con necesidad, la súplica del tirano, excusó sus hechos diabólicos.

    ainsi parlait le démon, et avec nécessité, le plaidoyer du tyran, excusait ses actes diaboliques.

    तो शैतान बोला, और आवश्यकता के साथ, अत्याचारी की याचना, उसके शैतानी कामों को क्षमा कर दिया।

    így szólt az ördög, és szükségképpen a zsarnok könyörgésére mentegette ördögi tetteit.

    begitu berbicara iblis, dan dengan kebutuhan, permohonan tiran, memaafkan perbuatan jahatnya.

    悪鬼はそう語り、必要に迫られて暴君の嘆願により、彼の悪魔的な行いを許した。

    악마는 그렇게 말했고 필연적으로 폭군의 간청은 그의 악마 같은 행동을 변명했습니다.

    కాబట్టి పిచ్చివాడు మాట్లాడాడు, మరియు నిరంకుశుడు యొక్క అభ్యర్థన, అతని పైశాచిక చర్యలను క్షమించింది.

    恶魔如此说,暴君的恳求也为他的恶行开脱了。
