我有此意、豈盡浮而不實乎、或我所定之意、豈循私欲而定、致在我有今是後非乎、

我有此意，岂是反复不定吗？我所起的意，岂是从情欲起的，叫我忽是忽非吗？

我有此意，难道是反覆不定吗？难道我的意愿是从私欲起的，以致我忽是忽非吗？

我有此意，难道是反覆不定吗？难道我的意愿是从私欲起的，以致我忽是忽非吗？

我定了这计划，难道会反复无常吗？难道我是意气用事，出尔反尔吗？

我这样决定，难道是反覆不定吗？我所决定的，难道是体贴肉体而定，使我忽是忽非吗？

那么，我这样打算，难道就是轻率行事吗？难道我所计划的，是顺着肉体的计划，以致在我忽是忽非吗？

我有此意，豈是反覆不定嗎？我所起的意，豈是從情慾起的，叫我忽是忽非嗎？

我有此意，難道是反覆不定嗎？難道我的意願是從私慾起的，以致我忽是忽非嗎？

我有此意，難道是反覆不定嗎？難道我的意願是從私慾起的，以致我忽是忽非嗎？

我定了這計劃，難道會反覆無常嗎？難道我是意氣用事，出爾反爾嗎？

我這樣決定，難道是反覆不定嗎？我所決定的，難道是體貼肉體而定，使我忽是忽非嗎？

那麼我既有了這個意思，難道還有輕浮的態度麼？還是我所定的意是按着肉體而定意，以致在我也有忽是忽非麼？

那麼，我這樣打算，難道就是輕率行事嗎？難道我所計劃的，是順著肉體的計劃，以致在我忽是忽非嗎？

我斯意豈輕躁乎、我所擬豈狥情而有是是非非乎、

我有斯意、豈浮而不實乎、豈狥私有今是後非乎、

當吾之存此意念也、決非以輕率出之、亦非徇於私情而定、其後又任意變更計劃、忽爾非其所是、是其所非也。

Was I fickle when I intended to do this? Or do I make my plans in a worldly manner so that in the same breath I say both“ Yes, yes” and“ No, no”?

When I planned all this, was I ready to change my mind for no good reason? No. I don’t make my plans the way the world makes theirs. In the same breath the world says both,“ Yes! Yes!” and“ No! No!”

Was I vacillating when I wanted to do this? Do I make my plans according to the flesh, ready to say“ Yes, yes” and“ No, no” at the same time?

You may be asking why I changed my plan. Do you think I make my plans carelessly? Do you think I am like people of the world who say“ Yes” when they really mean“ No”?

Now when I planned this, was I of two minds? Or what I plan, do I plan in a purely human way so that I say“ Yes, yes” and“ No, no” at the same time?

Therefore, I was not vacillating when I intended to do this, was I? Or what I decide, do I decide according to the flesh, so that with me there will be yes, yes and no, no at the same time?

Therefore, when I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be Yes, Yes, and No, No?

When I therefore was thus minded, did I show fickleness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be the yea yea and the nay nay?

So when I planned this, was I irresponsible? Or what I plan, do I plan in a purely human way so that I say“ Yes, yes” and“ No, no” simultaneously?

When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?

Therefore when I was planning to do this, I did not do so without thinking about what I was doing, did I? Or do I make my plans according to mere human standards so that I would be saying both“ Yes, yes” and“ No, no” at the same time?

When I therefore was thus determined, did I show fickleness? Or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be the“ Yes, yes” and the“ No, no?”

且求爾勿使我就爾之時、亦有勇敢、蓋有人謂我乃按血氣而行者、我亦思必勇敢自信、毅然以待之、即我儕按血氣而行、不按血氣而戰、

惟爾之言、當是是否否、過此則由惡惡或作惡者而出也、○

既悅以其子顯示於我、使我傳之於異邦人中、我遂不與世人世人原文作血肉謀、

天主誠信也、我指之而誓、我向爾所言者、無今是後非、我與西拉瓦努西拉瓦努即西拉及提摩太、在爾中所傳天主之子耶穌基督、無有今是後非、在彼惟有是而已、凡天主所許者、在彼皆是、在彼皆阿們、使我儕歸榮於天主、

由巴力比利土廟中、取銀七十舍客勒予亞比米勒、亞比米勒用此募敗類匪徒以從之、

我遵默示而上、以我在異邦所傳之福音告彼、惟私語其中有名之人、免我前所行、與後所將行者、歸於徒勞、

我之良心、證我處世為人、常以天主所賜之誠心實意、不恃肉體之智慧、惟恃天主之恩寵、我在爾中更如是、此乃我所誇者也、

故我保羅一再欲來就爾、惟撒但阻我、

其先知驕傲詭詐、其祭司污衊聖所、干犯律法、

主曰、凡先知未奉我遣我命、以幻夢為預言、傳述於人、又以誑言誇詐之詞、迷惑我民、使民無益者、我必罰之、此乃主所言、

爾則以貌擬人、我則不擬人、

兄弟乎、最要者、不可誓、勿指天而誓、勿指地而誓、勿指他物而誓、惟爾之言、當是是否否、不然、恐陷於罪、○
