你像急流一般把世人沖走，叫他們如夢消逝。他們像清晨的嫩草，

你叫他们如水冲去；他们如睡一觉。早晨，他们如生长的草，

你叫他们如水冲去，他们如睡一觉。早晨，他们如生长的草；

你叫他们如水冲去，他们如睡一觉。早晨，他们如生长的草；

你像急流一般把世人冲走，叫他们如梦消逝。他们像清晨的嫩草，

你使世人消逝，像被洪水冲去；他们好像睡了一觉；他们又像在早晨生长的草，

你冲去他们，他们就沉睡；他们如同清晨生长的草——

你叫他們如水沖去；他們如睡一覺。早晨，他們如生長的草，

你叫他們如水沖去，他們如睡一覺。早晨，他們如生長的草；

你叫他們如水沖去，他們如睡一覺。早晨，他們如生長的草；

你使世人消逝，像被洪水沖去；他們好像睡了一覺；他們又像在早晨生長的草，

你年年把人撒播去，他們就如草早晨萌了芽；

你把他們如水沖去，他們就沉睡；他們如同清晨生長的草——

爾衝人若大水、彼如寢寐、如朝生之草兮、

人之沒世、譬諸夢寐、譬諸草之萌櫱兮、

主使人逝世如水之流、亦使之如睡、青年如草、速然凋殘、

又如中宵夢。夢醒更已易。

Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death— they are like the new grass of the morning:

Yet you sweep people away, and they die. They are like new grass that grows in the morning.

You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning:

You sweep people away like dreams that disappear. They are like grass that springs up in the morning.

You end their lives; they sleep. They are like grass that grows in the morning—

You have swept them away like a flood, they fall asleep; In the morning they are like grass that sprouts anew.

You carry them away like a flood; They are like a sleep. In the morning they are like grass which grows up:

Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: In the morning they are like grass which groweth up.

You end their lives; they sleep. They are like grass that grows in the morning—

Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are[ as] a sleep: in the morning[ they are] like grass[ which] groweth up.

You bring their lives to an end and they“ fall asleep.” In the morning they are like the grass that sprouts up;

You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass.

有聲音說：「呼喊吧！」我問道：「我呼喊什麼呢？」那聲音說：「芸芸眾生盡如草，榮華富貴像野地的花。

他們不過是人醒來後的一場夢。主啊，你一行動，他們必灰飛煙滅。

世人的年日如同草芥，如野地茂盛的花，一經風吹，便無影無蹤，永遠消逝。

他們死期未到便已夭逝，他們的根基被洪濤捲走。

因為「芸芸眾生盡如草，榮華不過草上花；草必枯乾花必殘，

恐懼如洪水般淹沒他，暴風在夜間把他捲去。東風把他颳走，吹得無影無蹤。

我的歲月疾馳如快船，快如急降抓食的老鷹。

我要差來亞述王的軍隊，使他們像幼發拉底河的洪流一樣洶湧而來，淹沒一切水道，漫過河岸，席捲猶大，使整個猶大幾遭滅頂之災。他必展開雙翼橫掃你的土地。」願上帝與我們同在！

他如夢消逝，蹤影杳然；如夜間的異象，飛逝而去。

富有的弟兄降卑，也要快樂，因為他會像花草一樣衰殘。驕陽升起，草就乾枯，花也凋謝，美麗就消失了。富有的人在忙忙碌碌中也會如此衰殘。

攻打、圍困耶路撒冷及其堡壘的各國軍隊必如夢幻，如夜間的異象一樣消失。他們好像饑餓的人夢中吃飯，醒來仍然饑餓；像口渴的人夢中喝水，醒來仍然渴得發昏。攻打錫安山的各國軍隊結局都必如此。」

「那如尼羅河漲溢，如江水奔騰的是誰呢？埃及如尼羅河漲溢，如江水奔騰。她說，『我要漲溢，淹沒大地，毀滅城邑和其中的居民。』
