歷年既久、埃及王薨、以色列族因服役良苦、太息號呼、聲聞於上帝。

虐遇貧民、使呼籲於上、上帝垂聽之、

爾有巨能若我、爾可行雷若我。

作惡者流、願爾摧傷、窮詰厥罪而弗宥兮。

維此貧民、受屈欷歔、耶和華曰、余必勃然而興、手援之兮、不使藐視於人斯。

上帝兮、爾素祐予、今何棄予如遺敵人暴虐、使我殷憂兮、

上帝兮、人欲噬子、日加虐遇、求施矜憫兮、予敵眾多、厥心傲辟、日尋干戈、肆其橫噬兮、

匹夫匹婦號呼、怨其同宗猶大人、或曰、我已頻鬻子女、易穀養生。或曰、飢饉既甚、我已質田園宅第於人以糴穀。或曰、我之田園、已質於人、得金以納稅。我及我子、與同宗何異、奚以我之子女、為人服役、我有數女為人所玷、欲拯無能、我之田園、為人所據。

有嫠入見曰、有仇我者、請伸我冤、久而不許、後自思曰、我雖不畏上帝、不禮世人、但嫠再三瀆我、必伸其冤、免恆至聒我、主曰、聽不義士師所言、上帝選民、晝夜籲禱、其應或遲、豈不終伸其冤乎、

俾困苦者嘆息、傷心者呼籲、惡人橫逆如此、上帝不加以罪。

耶和華曰、我鑒吾民、受苦於埃及、人督其役、上籲於我、惟我聽聞、知其殷憂。
