Att fela är mänskligt, att förlåta gudomligt, ge mig tusen kyssar, sedan hundra!

Jag är redo för allt

Det är icke gott att mannen är allena.

It is not good to be a lonely man.

The last sentence is taken from the Bible [Genesis 2:18].
"It is not good that the man should be alone"

Hominus means a peron (a man or a woman). The Swedish translation should have been translated "Det är icke gott att människan är allena".

Hello sotim,

I think that you shall vote on the English translation here ...not the Swedish.

Thanks for the input about the Swedish one. Hm ...I checked it once again, and as far as I know "Genesis, 1 Mos 2:18" use to be translated this way in the Swedish bible. You are right that "Hominus" is a person, but here ... I don't think so. I guess this part of the bible was written before woman existed, maybe that's why it's translated as man, just thinking
