兄弟、我不欲爾不知、我在亞西亞遭難、被迫特甚、勢不可當、致絕保生命之望、

弟兄们，我们不要你们不晓得，我们从前在亚细亚遭遇苦难，被压太重，力不能胜，甚至连活命的指望都绝了；

吾欲兄弟知、吾在亞西亞遭苦、見壓特甚、勢不可當、欲保生命、已絕其望、

吾儕在亞西亞所遭遇之患難、不欲兄弟不之知也。當時吾儕所受之困阨、實非人力之所能當者、且自謂必不能倖免矣。

昔我在以弗所、與獸鬥、若僅似常人、有何益哉、

但我有此寶藏於土器、使人知此莫大之能、非由我、乃由天主也、我諸事諸事或作隨在遇患難而不窮迫、遇顛沛而不失望、遇窘逐而不見棄、被傾仆而不致亡、我身常冒死如主耶穌、原文作我身常負主耶穌之死使耶穌之生亦顯在我身、我生常為耶穌冒死、使耶穌之生、顯於我將死之身、是則死之力顯於我、生之力顯於爾、

因有廣大之門、開於我前、廣有功效、然敵者亦多、○

爾已飽飫、已豐富、不賴我儕、爾自掌權、爾自掌權或作爾目掌權乎我誠願爾掌權、使我儕可同掌權、

時、因此道騷動非小、有銀工、名底米丟、素造亞底米神銀龕者、使此等工師、獲利不少、乃集其人、及凡業此藝者、曰、諸公、爾知我儕賴此業獲利、此保羅誘惑多人、不第在以弗所、亦幾遍亞西亞、言手所造者非王、此爾曹所見所知也、如是、不獨我業危、為人所藐視、即大女神亞底米之廟、亦被輕忽、且遍亞西亞及天下所敬之亞底米、其顯赫亦必滅矣、眾聞此大怒、呼曰、大哉以弗所人之亞底米也、舉邑擾亂、執保羅之同行者、瑪其頓人、該猶、亞利司達古、齊心擁入戲園、保羅欲入見眾、門徒不許、亞西亞宗伯數人、與保羅為友者、遣人勸之、勿冒入戲園、會眾紛亂、喧呼不一、大半不知為何而集、有人將亞力山德曳於眾中、猶太人亦推之出、亞力山德舉手、欲申訴於民、眾知其為猶太人、則同聲呼曰、大哉以弗所人之亞底米也、如是者、約一時、邑之司書籍者撫眾曰、以弗所人歟、誰不知以弗所邑、崇事大女神亞底米、及其自天降之像乎、

大衛又誓曰、爾父知我蒙恩於爾前、我蒙恩於爾前或作爾喜悅我必自忖曰、莫若不使約拿單知之、恐其有憂、然我指永生天主而誓、亦指爾生命而誓、我與死亡、僅離一步、

大衛意謂、恐後有一日、我終亡於掃羅手、不如奔非利士地、掃羅見我不在以色列境內、必絕望不復索我、我乃可脫其手、
