爾衝人若大水、彼如寢寐、如朝生之草兮、

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——

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.

有聲曰、當號呼、曰、我呼云何、曰、凡有血氣者如草、其美容如田野之花、

主歟、爾興起時、蔑視其形相、如人醒時之視夢幻兮、

維彼世人、其日如草、其生如野花兮、一經風過、即歸烏有、其地不復識之兮、

彼未及期而見奪、其基被衝若溪流、

蓋曰、世人如草、其榮如花、草枯花謝、

威烈如波濤及之、狂飇於夜間刧之、東風飄之長往、暴風吹之離所、

日過如扁舟、又如疾下攫物之鷹、

故主必使亞述王、及其威勢、如大河之水、洶湧漲溢、出川踰岸、流入猶大、氾濫及項、以馬內利歟、彼展其翼、遍於爾地、○

彼必飛逝如夢、尋之不得、被逐若夜間之異象、

富者降卑亦然、以其如草花將逝也、蓋日出風炎、則草枯花謝、秀色云亡、富者於其所為、其衰亦若是、○

凡列邦之眾、擊亞利伊勒、攻其保障而苦之者、將如夢寐、若夜間之幻象、又如飢者夢食、醒而枵腹、渴者夢飲、醒而困憊、其心仍有所欲、列邦之眾攻錫安山者、亦若是也、○

彼若尼羅之漲溢、若川流之洶湧者、誰歟、若尼羅之漲溢、若川流之洶湧者、乃埃及也、彼曰、我必興起、掩蓋全地、毀其城邑、滅其居民、
