諸物既將如是消滅、則爾之為人、當如何清潔虔敬哉、

这一切既然都要如此销化，你们为人该当怎样圣洁，怎样敬虔，

既然这一切都要如此消失，你们处世为人必须圣洁敬虔，

既然这一切都要如此消失，你们处世为人必须圣洁敬虔，

一切都要这样被焚毁，你们在热切等候上帝来临的日子期间，该怎样过圣洁、敬虔的生活啊！因为到那日，天要被火焚毁，有形有质的都要被烈火熔化烧尽。

这一切既然都要这样融化，你们应当怎样为人，过着圣洁和敬虔的生活，

既然这一切都要如此被废除，那么，你们应该做什么样的人呢？应该行为圣洁、敬畏神，

這一切既然都要如此銷化，你們為人該當怎樣聖潔，怎樣敬虔，

既然這一切都要如此消失，你們處世為人必須聖潔敬虔，

既然這一切都要如此消失，你們處世為人必須聖潔敬虔，

一切都要這樣被焚毀，你們在熱切等候上帝來臨的日子期間，該怎樣過聖潔、敬虔的生活啊！因為到那日，天要被火焚毀，有形有質的都要被烈火熔化燒盡。

這一切既然都要這樣融化，你們應當怎樣為人，過著聖潔和敬虔的生活，

這一切既都要這樣消毁，你們就該做甚麼樣的人，該怎樣以聖別的品行和虔敬

既然這一切都要如此被廢除，那麼，你們應該做什麼樣的人呢？應該行為聖潔、敬畏神，

百物如將消滅、爾曹宜如何行善虔敬、

萬物既將消滅、則爾之舉動、當如何聖潔、當如何虔敬、

既知天地萬物終歸消滅、則爾等應如何孳孳為善、

Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives

So everything will be destroyed in this way. And what kind of people should you be? You should lead holy and godly lives.

Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness,

Since everything around us is going to be destroyed like this, what holy and godly lives you should live,

Since all these things are to be dissolved in this way, it is clear what sort of people you should be in holy conduct and godliness

Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,

Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,

Seeing that these things are thus all to be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy living and godliness,

Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, it is clear what sort of people you should be in holy conduct and godliness

[ Seeing] then[ that] all these things shall be dissolved, what manner[ of persons] ought ye to be in[ all] holy conversation and godliness,

Since all these things are to melt away in this manner, what sort of people must we be, conducting our lives in holiness and godliness,

Therefore since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,

召爾者聖矣、爾之諸行亦宜效其聖、

企慕上帝之日至、諸天因而焚毀、有體質者悉以烈火銷鎔之、

惟爾屬上帝者、宜遠此而趨於義、虔、信、愛、忍、謙、

於異邦宜正爾行、使素謗爾為惡者見之、則榮上帝於眷顧之日、

惟爾處世、須合乎基督之福音、使我或就爾、或離爾、得聞爾事、即爾堅立於一心一志、為福音之道而戰、

以感謝為祭者、即尊榮我、遵正道者、我必示以上帝之拯救兮、

門其號咷、邑其呼喊、非利士全地歟、爾消亡矣、蓋將有煙自北而來、無離其行伍者、

地與居民潰亂、其柱乃我所立兮、

天象俱消、天卷若卷、萬象凋殘、若葡萄葉之墮、若無花果樹枯葉之隕、

爾中孰睿而智乎、宜以溫柔之智、自善行而彰其工、

大哉敬虔之奧、無不以為然也、彼顯於形軀、徵於心靈、見於天使、宣於列邦、信於天下、躋於光榮焉、

勿以爾之年幼為人輕視、惟以言行愛信與潔、為信者之模楷、

既觀而往、遂忘其何若矣、

若有傳異教、不從我主耶穌基督之正言、不依敬虔之教者、

因我之福音達爾、不第以言、乃以能、以聖神、且以充實之信、爾亦知我儕為爾為何如人、

蓋其神能錫我一切關乎維生虔敬之事、乃因識夫以榮以德召我者也、

夫我籍在天、由此我亦俟乎救者、即主耶穌基督也、

地盡破壞、地悉崩裂、地大震撼、

眾異之曰、彼何人斯、風與海亦順之、○

然敬虔而知足、其利大矣、

於智益節、於節益忍、於忍益虔、

勿好利、以爾所有為足、蓋上帝嘗云、我必不棄爾、不遺爾也、

惡者拔刃彎弓、欲覆窮乏、殺正行之人兮、

夫我所以誇者、乃良心作證、非恃形軀之智、惟恃上帝之恩、以上帝所賦之聖與誠、為人於世、於爾曹為尤甚、
