我已经八十岁了，美丑难分，食不知味，乐不辨音，何必为我主我王添麻烦呢？

仆人现在八十岁了，还能尝出饮食的滋味、辨别美恶吗？还能听男女歌唱的声音吗？仆人何必累赘我主我王呢？

今日我已八十岁了，还能辨别美丑吗？仆人还能尝出饮食的滋味吗？还能听男女歌唱的声音吗？仆人何必拖累我主我王呢？

今日我已八十岁了，还能辨别美丑吗？仆人还能尝出饮食的滋味吗？还能听男女歌唱的声音吗？仆人何必拖累我主我王呢？

我现在已经八十岁了，还能分别美丑吗？你仆人还能尝出吃喝的味道吗？我还能细听男女歌手的声音吗？你仆人为什么要负累我主我王呢？

僕人現在八十歲了，還能嘗出飲食的滋味、辨別美惡嗎？還能聽男女歌唱的聲音嗎？僕人何必累贅我主我王呢？

我今年八十歲了；還能曉得辨別好壞麼？你僕人還能嘗出所喫所喝的滋味麼？還曉得聽男女歌唱者的聲音麼？僕人何必再做我主我王的累贅呢？

我現在已經八十歲了，還能辨別好壞嗎？難道你的僕人還能品嘗所吃的、所喝的嗎？難道我還能聽出男女歌唱的聲音嗎？你的僕人何必成為我主我王額外的負擔呢？

I’m already 80 years old. I can hardly tell the difference between what is enjoyable and what isn’t. I can hardly taste what I eat and drink. I can’t even hear the voices of male and female singers anymore. So why should I add my problems to yours?

I am this day eighty years old. Can I discern what is pleasant and what is not? Can your servant taste what he eats or what he drinks? Can I still listen to the voice of singing men and singing women? Why then should your servant be an added burden to my lord the king?

I am eighty years old today, and I can no longer enjoy anything. Food and wine are no longer tasty, and I cannot hear the singers as they sing. I would only be a burden to my lord the king.

I’m now eighty years old. Can I discern what is pleasant and what is not? Can your servant taste what he eats or drinks? Can I still hear the voice of male and female singers? Why should your servant be an added burden to my lord the king?

I am now eighty years old. Can I distinguish between good and bad? Or can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Or can I still hear the voice of men and women singing? Why then should your servant be an added burden to my lord the king?

I am today eighty years old. Can I discern between the good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear any longer the voice of singing men and singing women? Why then should your servant be a further burden to my Lord the king?

I am this day fourscore years old: can I discern between good and bad? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?

I[ am] this day fourscore years old:[ and] can I discern between good and evil? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?

I am presently eighty years old. Am I able to discern good and bad? Can I taste what I eat and drink? Am I still able to hear the voices of male and female singers? Why should I continue to be a burden to my lord the king?

I am eighty years old, today. Can I discern between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear the voice of singing men and singing women any more? Why then should your servant be a burden to my lord the king?

大卫对他说：“你跟我一同逃命，只会给我带来不便。

此外还有他们的七千三百三十七名男女仆婢，二百名男女歌乐手，

我们一生七十岁，强壮的可活八十岁，但人生最美好的时光也充满劳苦和愁烦，生命转瞬即逝，我们便如飞而去。

倘若家人太少，吃不了一只，可以跟最近的邻居共享一只，你们要按人数和各人的食量预备羊羔。

我为自己积聚金银，搜罗列王和各省的奇珍异宝，得到男女歌优及许多妃嫔——都是世人所想望的。

舌头岂不品尝食物，耳朵岂不辨别话语？

此外，他们还有七千三百三十七名男女仆婢，二百四十五名男女歌乐手，

年轻时要记住你的创造主，不要等到衰老的岁月来临时才哀叹：“我的日子毫无乐趣。”那时，太阳、月亮、星星都暗淡无光，雨后乌云再现；守卫家园的手脚颤抖，强壮的身躯变得弯腰驼背；牙齿稀少，无法咀嚼；视力衰退，看不清楚；耳朵发背，听不到推磨声；小鸟一叫，人就起来；歌声沙哑，不再美妙；惧怕高处，走路战战兢兢；头发白如银杏，精力枯竭，欲望荡然无存；人都走向永远的归宿，吊丧的人往来于街上；

我岂会说诡诈之言？我岂会是非不辨？

公主回答说：“好！”那女孩就跑去把婴孩的母亲带来。

干粮是给成年人吃的，他们的心思历经锻炼，能够分辨善恶。

因为你们尝过主恩的滋味是何等甘美。

那些从清早到深夜贪杯好酒，喝到酩酊大醉的人有祸了！席上，他们在琴、瑟、鼓、笛声中饮酒作乐，却毫不理会耶和华的作为。
