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？

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？

I am now eighty years old. Can I tell the difference between what is enjoyable and what is not? Can your servant taste what he eats and drinks? Can I still hear the voices of male and female singers? Why should your servant be an added burden to my lord the king?

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’m now 80 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] 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?

我们一生的日子，是七十岁，如果强壮，可到八十岁；但其中可夸耀的，不过是劳苦愁烦，转瞬即逝，我们就如飞而去。

我又为自己积聚金银，还有来自君王们和各省的珍宝。我也为自己招纳了男女歌手，以及许多的妃嫔，都是世人引以为乐的。

因此，在你青春的日子里，当记念创造你的主——不要等到祸患的日子来到，不要等到你说“我在其中毫无喜乐”的岁月来临；不要等到太阳、光线、月亮、星辰变为黑暗，雨后乌云返回；在那日，看守家的颤抖，强壮的男人弯腰，推磨的女人因为人少而停工，向窗外看的人眼目昏暗；那时街道上的门关闭，推磨的声音低沉，雀鸟一叫人就起身，所有歌唱的女子都衰微；甚至人害怕高处，害怕道路上的危险；杏树开花，蚱蜢蹒跚，人的性欲衰退；因为人归向自己永远的家，哀哭的人在街道上绕行。

不过干粮是给成熟之人吃的——他们经过实践，识别能力得到操练，以致能分辨善恶。

因为你们尝过主仁慈的滋味。

祸哉！那些清早起来追寻烈酒、流连到深夜为酒狂热的人！他们的宴席上有竖琴、里拉琴、铃鼓、横笛和酒，但他们没有注目耶和华的作为，也没有注视他手所做的。
