因此公平離了我們很遠；義氣正義趕不上我們；我們指望着光，唉，卻是黑暗！指望着光明，卻行於幽暗。

因此，公平离我们远，公义追不上我们。我们指望光亮，却是黑暗，指望光明，却行幽暗。

因此，公平离我们甚远，公义追不上我们。我们指望光亮，看哪，却只有黑暗，指望光明，却行在幽暗中。

因此，公平离我们甚远，公义追不上我们。我们指望光亮，看哪，却只有黑暗，指望光明，却行在幽暗中。

因此，正义远离我们，公义临不到我们。我们渴望光明，却得到黑暗；我们渴望曙光，却仍然走在幽暗中。

因此，公平远离我们，公义赶不上我们，我们指望亮光，不料，却是黑暗。我们指望光明，却行在幽暗中！

因此公正远离我们，公义追不上我们。我们指望光明，看哪，却是黑暗；我们指望亮光，却行走在幽暗之中！

因此，公平離我們遠，公義追不上我們。我們指望光亮，卻是黑暗，指望光明，卻行幽暗。

因此，公平離我們甚遠，公義追不上我們。我們指望光亮，看哪，卻只有黑暗，指望光明，卻行在幽暗中。

因此公正遠離我們，公義追不上我們。我們指望光明，看哪，卻是黑暗；我們指望亮光，卻行走在幽暗之中！

故公平遠我、仁義不及我躬、我望光明、仍處幽暗、我冀平旦、猶履晦冥、

故上帝不伸我冤、不拯我躬、我望光明、忽致幽暗、我望日中、偏值晦冥。

故我冤不伸、或作故主不速伸我冤仁義仁義或作救恩不臨及我躬、我儕望光仍為幽暗、盼亮仍行於晦冥、

So justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We look for light, but all is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows.

We aren’t being treated fairly. We haven’t been set free yet. The God who always does what is right hasn’t come to help us. We look for light, but we see nothing but darkness. We look for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows.

Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness does not overtake us; we hope for light, and behold, darkness, and for brightness, but we walk in gloom.

So there is no justice among us, and we know nothing about right living. We look for light but find only darkness. We look for bright skies but walk in gloom.

Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We hope for light, but there is darkness; for brightness, but we live in the night.

Therefore justice is far from us, And righteousness does not reach us; We hope for light, but there is darkness, For brightness, but we walk in gloom.

Therefore justice is far from us, Nor does righteousness overtake us; We look for light, but there is darkness! For brightness, but we walk in blackness!

Therefore is justice far from us, neither doth righteousness overtake us: we look for light, but, behold, darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.

Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We hope for light, but there is darkness; for brightness, but we live in the night.

Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness,[ but] we walk in darkness.

For this reason deliverance is far from us and salvation does not reach us. We wait for light, but see only darkness; we wait for a bright light, but live in deep darkness.

Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness doesn’t overtake us. We look for light, but see darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.

當那日子、他們必向這地咆吼着，就像海嘯之嘩嘩；人若望着這地，就只見黑暗災難；亮光在雲霧中都變為黑暗了。

瑪律苦境的居民焦急等候着福利，因為有災禍從永恆主那裏降到耶路撒冷的城門。

我們指望着平安，好處卻不來；指望得醫治時，唉，反而受了驚嚇！

你眼目清潔不看壞事，你是不能逕看着毒害舉動而不理的！為甚麼你逕看着詭詐不忠的人而不理？惡人吞滅了比自己正義的、你為甚麼靜默不動？

那渴望着永恆主之日子的有禍啊！你們為甚麼要永恆主的日子呢？那日子究竟是黑暗，不是亮光呀：就像人躲避了獅子，卻遇見了熊；進了屋子，手靠着牆，卻給蛇咬了。永恆主的日子不是黑暗、沒有亮光麼？不是幽暗、毫無光輝麼？

你是全然棄絕了猶大麼？你的心討厭了錫安麼？為甚麼你擊打了我們，以致我們無法醫治呢？我們指望着平安，好處卻不來；指望得醫治時，唉，反而受了驚嚇！

人正說平安穩妥的時候，就在那時、突來的死滅就臨到他們了——正如產難臨到懷孕的婦人一樣——他們斷不能逃脫。

但我希望得福，災禍竟到了；我等着亮光，竟來了黑暗。

華冠從我們頭上掉下來；我們該有禍啊！因為我們犯了罪。為了這事、我們心裏發暈，為了這些事、我們的眼昏暗，
