摩押人屢陟崇坵、不勝困憊、詣殿禱告、不蒙眷祐。

摩押人朝见的时候，在高处疲乏，又到他圣所祈祷，也不蒙应允。

当摩押人出现在丘坛，筋疲力尽时，虽然到自己的圣所祈祷，却仍无济于事。

当摩押人出现在丘坛，筋疲力尽时，虽然到自己的圣所祈祷，却仍无济于事。

摩押人上丘坛祭拜，却落得筋疲力尽；在庙宇里祷告，却毫无用处。

到那时，摩押人虽朝见他们的神，虽在高处弄得疲乏不堪，又到他们的圣所去祷告，却总不得亨通。

到那时，摩押人即使祭拜——无论是在高所把自己弄得筋疲力尽，还是到他们的圣所祷告——也一事无成。

當摩押人出現在丘壇，筋疲力盡時，雖然到自己的聖所祈禱，卻仍無濟於事。

摩押人上邱壇祭拜，卻落得精疲力盡；在廟宇裡禱告，卻毫無用處。

到那時，摩押人雖朝見他們的神，雖在高處弄得疲乏不堪，又到他們的聖所去禱告，卻總不得亨通。

摩押人儘管朝見他們的神，儘管在高處作法到累死，又進他們的聖所去禱告，也不能有所成。

到那時，摩押人即使祭拜——無論是在高所把自己弄得筋疲力盡，還是到他們的聖所禱告——也一事無成。

摩押覲見、困憊於崇邱、詣其聖所祈禱、亦不蒙允、○

摩押人在邱壇祈禱、徒形疲乏、入廟禱告、亦屬徒勞、

When Moab appears at her high place, she only wears herself out; when she goes to her shrine to pray, it is to no avail.

Moab’s people go to their high place to pray. But all they do is wear themselves out. Their god Chemosh can’t help them at all.

And when Moab presents himself, when he wearies himself on the high place, when he comes to his sanctuary to pray, he will not prevail.

The people of Moab will worship at their pagan shrines, but it will do them no good. They will cry to the gods in their temples, but no one will be able to save them.

When Moab appears and tires himself out on the high place and comes to his sanctuary to pray, it will do him no good.

So it will come about when Moab presents himself, When he tires himself upon his high place And comes to his sanctuary to pray, That he will not prevail.

And it shall come to pass, When it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, That he will come to his sanctuary to pray; But he will not prevail.

And it shall come to pass, when Moab presenteth himself, when he wearieth himself upon the high place, and shall come to his sanctuary to pray, that he shall not prevail.

When Moab appears on the high place, when he tires himself out and comes to his sanctuary to pray, it will do him no good.

And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail.

When the Moabites plead with all their might at their high places, and enter their temples to pray, their prayers will be ineffective!

It will happen that when Moab presents himself, when he wearies himself on the high place, and comes to his sanctuary to pray, that he will not prevail.

摩押人登巴益、底本崇邱、哭泣不勝、鬚髮盡薙、為尼破、米底巴之遭難、號呼靡已、

乃導至鎖腓野、比士迦山巔、爰築壇七、各獻牛羊、

耶和華曰、在摩押四境、無人陟崇邱、焚香奉事其上帝、我使之然。

巴蘭與巴勒偕行、至基列湖朔、

遂引巴蘭至比耳山巔、與野相望、

至午後、近獻祭之時、彼偽為憑神而言、實無聲響、亦無應對而垂顧之者。

斯時籲我、而我弗聽、竭力求恩、而不可得。

耶和華與、民罹禍患、望爾眷佑、既受扑責、則柔聲下氣、以祈求爾、

爾謀夫孔多、有人仰觀天象、占察星辰、每值月朔、以卜未來、以定吉凶、使其咸興、庶可救爾。

不知我之上帝、在彼穹蒼、任意作為兮。彼之偶像、金銀而已、人手所雕作兮。有口不言、有目不睹兮、有耳不能聞聲、有鼻不知辨臭兮、有手不可提挈。有足不可步履、有喉舌不可談吐兮、

值崇拜於其上帝溺落之殿、其子亞得米勒、沙哩斯弒之、遁於亞喇臘國、更有一子。以撒哈頓繼位。

因恃貨財、為人所擄、基抹之偶像被攘、其祭司牧伯、俱為俘囚。

摩押人其有禍乎、崇事基抹者、俱已淪亡、爾之子女、俱為俘囚。

遂取將繼位之長子、獻為燔祭於邑垣。以色列族見此、無不憤怒、離摩押王、而反故土。

昔以色列族抱愧、因恃伯特利故也、摩押族因基抹故以致含羞、亦必若是。

西拿基立遣使侮永生上帝、請耶和華鑒之聽之。亞述列王、滅列國、戮人民、誠有此事、其上帝非上帝、乃木石偶像、人手所作者、故亞述王擲而燬於火、今禱我上帝耶和華、救我脫於其手、使天下列國咸知、耶和華獨為上帝。

屹立若柱、不能言、不能行、藉人肩負、彰癉不加、爾勿畏之。

詰旦、巴勒引巴蘭至巴力崇邱、使觀以色列族營之四隅。巴蘭謂巴勒曰、當於此築壇七、備牛七、羊七、巴勒遵言而行、二人在各壇獻祭牛一、羊一、巴蘭謂巴勒曰、汝燔祭品、當侍於側、我將前往、如耶和華遇我、其所諭言、我必告爾。遂陟童山。

我祖所滅之國、坷散、哈蘭、哩泄、與提拉撒所居埃田族、其上帝豈得救之乎。

在耶路撒冷相對之山、築崇邱、奉摩押人可惡之物基抹、亞捫人可惡之物摩洛、

我將見之、不在今日、我將觀之、不於目前、自雅各家將出明星、自以色列將秉大權、摩押之隅、悉為攻擊、示特之人、俱必喪亡。
