我继续寻找，却未找到；一千当中，我找到一个男的，但在这一切当中，却找不到一个女的。

我继续寻找，却未找到；一千当中，我找到一个男的，但在这一切当中，却找不到一个女的。

我的心仍在寻觅，却还找不到，就是在一千个男人中，我找到一个正直人，但在所有的女人中，连一个也找不到。

我繼續尋找，卻未找到；一千當中，我找到一個男的，但在這一切當中，卻找不到一個女的。

我的心仍在尋覓，卻還找不到，就是在一千個男人中，我找到一個正直人，但在所有的女人中，連一個也找不到。

就是我心裏屢次尋找着，而未曾找到的：在一千人中我找到了一個正直的男人，但女人呢，在一千人之中、我卻找不到一個正直的。

我心所求、猶未遇者、千男之中、我得其一、眾女之中、不得其一、

我心又有所尋、而未尋得、千男之中、猶可得一俊士、千女之中、未必得一哲婦、

while I was still searching but not finding— I found one upright man among a thousand, but not one upright woman among them all.

I searched and searched but found very little. I did find one honest man among a thousand. But I didn’t find one honest woman among a thousand.

which my soul has sought repeatedly, but I have not found. One man among a thousand I found, but a woman among all these I have not found.

Though I have searched repeatedly, I have not found what I was looking for. Only one out of a thousand men is virtuous, but not one woman!

which my soul continually searches for but does not find: I found one person in a thousand, but none of those was a woman.

which I am still seeking but have not found. I have found one man among a thousand, but I have not found a woman among all these.

Which my soul still seeks but I cannot find: One man among a thousand I have found, But a woman among all these I have not found.

which my soul still seeketh, but I have not found: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.

which my soul continually searches for but does not find: among a thousand people I have found one true man, but among all these I have not found a true woman.

Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.

What I have continually sought, I have not found; I have found only one upright man among a thousand, but I have not found one upright woman among all of them.

which my soul still seeks, but I have not found. I have found one man among a thousand, but I have not found a woman among all those.

Yet if there is an angel at their side, a messenger, one out of a thousand, sent to tell them how to be upright, (niv)

King Solomon, however, loved many foreign women besides Pharaoh’s daughter— Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians and Hittites.They were from nations about which the Lord had told the Israelites,“ You must not intermarry with them, because they will surely turn your hearts after their gods.” Nevertheless, Solomon held fast to them in love.He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray.

Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore; those who are loyal have vanished from the human race. (niv)

My soul yearns for you in the night; in the morning my spirit longs for you. When your judgments come upon the earth, the people of the world learn righteousness. (niv)

All this I tested by wisdom and I said,“ I am determined to be wise”— but this was beyond me.Whatever exists is far off and most profound— who can discover it? (niv)
