Die Versöhnung

There appear to be two plays named Die Versöhnung ("The reconciliation" or "the appeasement") in German, one by  August von Kotzebue (1798) and another by Andreas Josef von Guttenberg (1800). Both apparently generated from Vienna at approximately the same time, though they are clearly different plays. Both have been performed in South Africa.

The original text
Originally published under this title as a four act play by Joseph Lindauer, Munich, 1800.

According to Goedeke and Diesch (2011, p 169) however, the play was soon renamed Vergeben und Vergessen to distinguish it from Von Kotzebue's play, and  published under that title by Costenoble, Tagebücher in 1807.(However Vergeben und Vergessen is described as a 3 act comedy by the authors.)

Translations and adaptations
Translated and freely adapted into Dutch as De Bevrediging ("The appeasement" or "the satisfaction"), a play in five acts, by an anonymous author. Published by Wed. J. Dóll, Amsterdam 1801.
