我嘗自謂、我日當午、將入陰府之門、絕我餘齡、

我享綏安之時、自謂壽齡將絕、必臨窀穸、

我自謂、正冀綏安時、乃將入示阿勒示阿勒見五章十四節小註之門、不得享我之餘年、

I said,“ In the prime of my life must I go through the gates of death and be robbed of the rest of my years?”

I said,“ I’m enjoying the best years of my life. Must I now go through the gates of death? Will the rest of my years be taken away from me?”

I said, In the middle of my days I must depart; I am consigned to the gates of Sheol for the rest of my years.

I said,“ In the prime of my life, must I now enter the place of the dead? Am I to be robbed of the rest of my years?”

那些日子，希西迦病危，亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚先知前来对他说：“耶和华说，‘你要交待后事，因为你要死了，你的病不能康复。’”

我的年日已尽，我的计划破灭，我的心愿落空。他们说黑夜是白昼，声称黑暗就是光明。我若期望阴间作我的家园，在黑暗之地铺设我的床榻，称坟墓为父亲，称蛆虫为母亲、姊妹，那么，我的希望在哪里？谁能看到我的希望？我的希望会跟我进入阴间，与我同归尘土吗？”

我有何力量可以支撑下去？有何前景让我忍耐下去？
