我的心靈消耗，我的日子滅盡；墳墓為我預備好了。

“我的心灵消耗，我的日子灭尽；坟墓为我预备好了。

“我的灵耗尽，我的日子消逝；坟墓为我预备好了。

“我的灵耗尽，我的日子消逝；坟墓为我预备好了。

“我的心灵破碎，我的年日将尽，坟墓等候着我。

“我的气息将断，我的日子快尽，坟墓已为我预备好了。

「我的靈耗盡，我的日子消逝；墳墓為我預備好了。

「我的靈耗盡，我的日子消逝；墳墓為我預備好了。

「我的心靈破碎，我的年日將盡，墳墓等候著我。

“我的氣息將斷，我的日子快盡，墳墓已為我預備好了。

我的生氣斷絕了，我的年日消盡了，所留給我的只有墳地。

我靈已衰、我日已盡、邱墓已為我備、

我神已昏、我命垂盡。將入墓矣。

我氣已衰、我命垂盡、我命垂盡或作我之日月已將無有惟有墳墓以待我、

My spirit is broken, my days are cut short, the grave awaits me.

My strength is almost gone. I won’t live much longer. A grave is waiting for me.

“ My spirit is broken; my days are extinct; the graveyard is ready for me.

“ My spirit is crushed, and my life is nearly snuffed out. The grave is ready to receive me.

My spirit is broken. My days are extinguished. A graveyard awaits me.

“ My spirit is broken, my days are extinguished, The grave is ready for me.

“ My spirit is broken, My days are extinguished, The grave is ready for me.

My spirit is consumed, my days are extinct, The grave is ready for me.

My spirit is broken. My days are extinguished. A graveyard awaits me.

My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves[ are ready] for me.

My spirit is broken, my days have faded out, the grave awaits me.

“ My spirit is consumed. My days are extinct, and the grave is ready for me.

我說：正在我中年之日必進入陰間的門；我餘剩的年歲不得享受。我說：我必不得見耶和華，就是在活人之地不見耶和華；我與世上的居民不再見面。我的住處被遷去離開我，好像牧人的帳棚一樣；我將性命捲起，像織布的捲布一樣。耶和華必將我從機頭剪斷，從早到晚，他要使我完結。我使自己安靜直到天亮；他像獅子折斷我一切的骨頭，從早到晚，他要使我完結。我像燕子呢喃，像白鶴鳴叫，又像鴿子哀鳴；我因仰觀，眼睛困倦。耶和華啊，我受欺壓，求你為我作保。

因為我心裏滿了患難；我的性命臨近陰間。我算和下坑的人同列，如同無力的人一樣。我被丟在死人中，好像被殺的人躺在墳墓裏。他們是你不再記念的，與你隔絕了。

我若盼望陰間為我的房屋，若下榻在黑暗中，若對朽壞說：你是我的父；對蟲說：你是我的母親姊妹；

我口的氣味，我妻子厭惡；我的懇求，我同胞也憎嫌。

此後，約伯又活了一百四十年，得見他的兒孫，直到四代。

我必不永遠相爭，也不長久發怒，恐怕我所造的人與靈性都必發昏。

我有甚麼氣力使我等候？我有甚麼結局使我忍耐？
