邪慝雖甘於口中、藏於舌底、

“ Though evil is sweet in his mouth and he hides it under his tongue,

“ Anything that is evil tastes sweet to them. They keep it under their tongues for a while.

“ Though evil is sweet in his mouth, though he hides it under his tongue,

“ They enjoyed the sweet taste of wickedness, letting it melt under their tongue.

Though evil tastes sweet in his mouth and he conceals it under his tongue,

“ Though evil tastes sweet in his mouth And he hides it under his tongue,

“ Though evil is sweet in his mouth, And he hides it under his tongue,

Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, Though he hide it under his tongue,

Though evil tastes sweet in his mouth and he conceals it under his tongue,

Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth,[ though] he hide it under his tongue;

“ If evil is sweet in his mouth and he hides it under his tongue,

“ Though wickedness is sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue,

青年人哪，你在幼年時快樂吧；在青年日子使你的心高興吧；按你的心所願行的而行，按你的眼所愛看的而看吧。不過你要知道、為了這一切、上帝總要使你受審判。

『偷舀的水是甜的；暗喫的飯很有滋味。』人卻不知陰魂之處就在那裏；她的顧客就在陰間的深處。
