But I said,“ I have labored in vain. I have spent my strength in vain for nothing; yet surely the justice due to me is with Yahweh, and my reward with my God.”

我却说：“我劳碌是徒然；我尽力是虚无虚空。然而，我当得的理必在耶和华那里；我的赏赐必在我神那里。”

我却说：“我劳碌是徒然，我尽力是虚无虚空。耶和华诚然以公平待我，我的赏赐在我的上帝那里。”

我却说：“我劳碌是徒然，我尽力是虚无虚空。耶和华诚然以公平待我，我的赏赐在我的神那里。”

但我说：“我虚耗精力，徒劳无功。然而，耶和华必公正地待我，我的报酬在我的上帝那里。”

但我说：“我劳碌是徒然的；我用尽气力，是虚无虚空的；然而我当得的公理是在耶和华那里，我的赏赐是在我的神那里。”

但我说：“我辛劳是徒然的，我耗尽了力量是虚无虚空的；然而，我应得的公正在耶和华那里，我的酬报在我的神那里。”

我卻說：我勞碌是徒然；我盡力是虛無虛空。然而，我當得的理必在耶和華那裏；我的賞賜必在我神那裏。

我卻說：「我勞碌是徒然，我盡力是虛無虛空。耶和華誠然以公平待我，我的賞賜在我的上帝那裏。」

我卻說：「我勞碌是徒然，我盡力是虛無虛空。耶和華誠然以公平待我，我的賞賜在我的神那裏。」

但我說：「我虛耗精力，徒勞無功。然而，耶和華必公正地待我，我的報酬在我的上帝那裡。」

但我說：“我勞碌是徒然的；我用盡氣力，是虛無虛空的；然而我當得的公理是在耶和華那裡，我的賞賜是在我的神那裡。”

但我卻說：『我是白白勞碌的；我費盡了力量、是虛空而徒然的；其實我伸冤的權利是在永恆主那裏我可得的賞報是在於我的上帝。』

但我說：「我辛勞是徒然的，我耗盡了力量是虛無虛空的；然而，我應得的公正在耶和華那裡，我的酬報在我的神那裡。」

惟我曰、我勤勞徒然、竭力成為虛空、然耶和華必理我冤、我之賞賚、在我上帝、

受膏者曰、我竭力徒勞、我之上帝耶和華、必伸我冤、必賞我勞。

我自言曰、我勞枉然、竭力徒然無益、主必伸我冤、賞賚在我天主、

But I said,“ I have labored in vain; I have spent my strength for nothing at all. Yet what is due me is in the Lord’s hand, and my reward is with my God.”

But I said,“ In spite of my hard work, I feel as if I haven’t accomplished anything. I’ve used up all my strength. It seems as if everything I’ve done is worthless. But the Lord will give me what I should receive. My God will reward me.”

But I said,“ I have labored in vain; I have spent my strength for nothing and vanity; yet surely my right is with the Lord, and my recompense with my God.”

I replied,“ But my work seems so useless! I have spent my strength for nothing and to no purpose. Yet I leave it all in the Lord’s hand; I will trust God for my reward.”

But I myself said: I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nothing and futility; yet my vindication is with the LORD, and my reward is with my God.

But I said,“ I have labored in vain, I have spent My strength for nothing and futility; Nevertheless, the justice due to Me is with the Lord, And My reward is with My God.”

Then I said,‘ I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nothing and in vain; Yet surely my just reward is with the Lord, And my work with my God.’”

But I said, I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nought and vanity; yet surely the justice due to me is with Jehovah, and my recompense with my God.

But I myself said: I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nothing and futility; yet my vindication is with the Lord, and my reward is with my God.

Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain:[ yet] surely my judgment[ is] with the LORD, and my work with my God.

But I thought,“ I have worked in vain; I have expended my energy for absolutely nothing.” But the LORD will vindicate me; my God will reward me.

Tell those who have a fearful heart,“ Be strong! Don’t be afraid! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, God’s retribution. He will come and save you.

They will not labor in vain nor give birth for calamity; for they are the offspring of Yahweh’s blessed and their descendants with them.

I am afraid for you, that I might have wasted my labor for you.

Yet it pleased Yahweh to bruise him. He has caused him to suffer. When you make his soul an offering for sin, he will see his offspring. He will prolong his days and Yahweh’s pleasure will prosper in his hand.After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light and be satisfied. My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself; and he will bear their iniquities.Therefore I will give him a portion with the great. He will divide the plunder with the strong; because he poured out his soul to death and was counted with the transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many and made intercession for the transgressors.

“ Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her! How often I would have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not!

Didn’t the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?”

For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God, in those who are saved and in those who perish:

He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.

Jesus answered,“ Faithless and perverse generation! How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me.”

I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?

I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the assembly, I will praise you.You who fear Yahweh, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him! Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel!For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, Neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard.My praise of you comes in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him.The humble shall eat and be satisfied. They shall praise Yahweh who seek after him. Let your hearts live forever.All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to Yahweh. All the relatives of the nations shall worship before you.For the kingdom is Yahweh’s. He is the ruler over the nations.All the rich ones of the earth shall eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he who can’t keep his soul alive.Posterity shall serve him. Future generations shall be told about the Lord.They shall come and shall declare his righteousness to a people that shall be born, for he has done it.

I glorified you on the earth. I have accomplished the work which you have given me to do.Now, Father, glorify me with your own self with the glory which I had with you before the world existed.

But about Israel he says,“ All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”

Yet if you warn the wicked, and he doesn’t turn from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he will die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.”

Your strength will be spent in vain; for your land won’t yield its increase, neither will the trees of the land yield their fruit.

Behold, the Lord Yahweh will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him. Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.

I have spread out my hands all day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts;

Behold, Yahweh has proclaimed to the end of the earth,“ Say to the daughter of Zion,‘ Behold, your salvation comes! Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him!’”

Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name,that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth,

looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
