其隱慝始萌、今有所阻、後無扞格、

因为那不法的隐意已经发动，只是现在有一个拦阻的，等到那拦阻的被除去，

因为那不法的隐秘已经运作，只是现在有一个阻挡的，要等到那阻挡的被除去才会发作，

因为那不法的隐秘已经运作，只是现在有一个阻挡的，要等到那阻挡的被除去才会发作，

其实那不法之徒的阴谋已经在酝酿中，然而现在有一位在拦阻他。等到拦阻他的那位一离开，

因为那不法的潜力已经发动，只是现在有一个箝制他的在那里，直等到那箝制解除了，

其实这不法的奥秘已经在做工，只是要等到那现在拦阻他的不在其中，

因為那不法的隱意已經發動，只是現在有一個攔阻的，等到那攔阻的被除去，

因為那不法的隱祕已經運作，只是現在有一個阻擋的，要等到那阻擋的被除去才會發作，

因為那不法的隱祕已經運作，只是現在有一個阻擋的，要等到那阻擋的被除去才會發作，

其實那不法之徒的陰謀已經在醞釀中，然而現在有一位在攔阻他。等到攔阻他的那位一離開，

因為那不法的潛力已經發動，只是現在有一個箝制他的在那裡，直等到那箝制解除了，

那不法之「祕密」是已在運用動力的。不過這必須等那現在還抑制他的從中間被處置了，

其實這不法的奧祕已經在做工，只是要等到那現在攔阻他的不在其中，

蓋不法之隱慝已萌、惟今有阻之者、迨其見除時、

蓋不法之隱慝、今已發動、但阻之者仍阻之、待阻之者既除於中、

蓋其不法之隱圖、已在醞釀、惟尚有為之阻礙者、故其一時未能遽發；一俟阻礙見除、

如不言耶穌基督成人身而誕降者、非由上帝出矣、此為基督敵、其必猝至、爾素聞之、今且在世矣、

書奧名於顙云、巴比倫大邑、世之淫婦、與可憎者之母、

蓋我知去後、必有殘狼入爾中、不惜其群、

其言譬諸瘡痏、蔓延厥體、有若許米乃、腓理徒、棄真理、言復生之事既往、故數人之信為所傾圮、

天使語我曰、爾何異耶、婦與所乘首七角十之獸、其奧義我將示汝、

勿以爾之賞、見奪於人、彼以謙卑自稱、效天使崇拜、欲窺無形、私心自衒、竟不愛戴元首、全體惟藉厥首、百節維繫、相承鞏固、賴上帝以生以長、爾效基督之死、脫此世小學、奚可從世故、尚儀文乎、儀文之大略、即毋近、毋嘗、毋捫之也、第人所傳之教、習之必敗、有智慧之名、佯為崇事、自卑克己、不愛其身、惟狥所欲焉、

敬主之道、至大至妙、無不以為然、上帝假人身而顯著、稱義於聖神、見於天使、聞於異邦、信於天下、而躋光明之域、
