爾壽爾年、豈若人之短促哉。

你的日子岂像人的日子，你的年岁岂像人的年岁，

你的日子岂像人的日子，你的年岁岂像壮士的年岁，

你的日子岂像人的日子，你的年岁岂像壮士的年岁，

难道你的年日有限，岁月如世人般短暂？

你的日子不如人的日子，你的年岁不像人的年岁，

你的日子豈像人的日子，你的年歲豈像人的年歲，

你的日子豈像人的日子，你的年歲豈像壯士的年歲，

你的日子豈像人的日子，你的年歲豈像壯士的年歲，

難道你的年日有限，歲月如世人般短暫？

你的日子不如人的日子，你的年歲不像人的年歲，

難道你的日子像人的日子？你的年歲像人的年歲？

爾日豈如人之日、爾年豈如人之年、

主之日豈如人之日乎、主之歲豈如人之歲乎、

Are your days like those of a mortal or your years like those of a strong man,

Your days aren’t like the days of a mere human being. Your years aren’t even like the years of a strong man.

Are your days as the days of man, or your years as a man’s years,

Is your lifetime only as long as ours? Is your life so short

Are your days like those of a human, or your years like those of a man,

Are Your days like the days of a mortal, Or Your years like a man’s year,

Are Your days like the days of a mortal man? Are Your years like the days of a mighty man,

Are thy days as the days of man, Or thy years as man’s days,

Are Your days like those of a human, or Your years like those of a man,

[ Are] thy days as the days of man?[ are] thy years as man’s days,

Are your days like the days of a mortal, or your years like the years of a mortal,

Are your days as the days of mortals, or your years as man’s years,

良朋當思之、主觀一日猶千年、千年猶一日、

禱曰、我之上帝、爾壽無疆、余年正壯、毋使予短折兮、爾元始肇基乎地、創造乎天兮、彼必崩、爾恆存、彼必敝如衣服、爾更易之兮、惟爾不變、爾年靡暨兮、

彼將更易、則爾卷而藏之、惟爾不變、爾壽無疆、

山崗未為爾所立、寰宇未為爾所造、自亘古迄叔季、爾為上帝、無始無終兮、爾使人歸土、語之曰、爾儕世人、當返其本兮、自爾視之、雖歷千年、無異片晷、同於宵漏兮、

上帝至大、難以悉知、其壽無疆、不可計數。

耶和華兮、爾乃永生、兆姓追思、歷世靡已兮、
