「我的哀訴至今充滿苦楚，祂的責罰使我呻吟不止。

“如今我的哀告还算为悖逆；我的责罚比我的唉哼还重。

“如今我的哀告还算为悖逆；我虽唉哼，他的手仍然重重责罚我。

“如今我的哀告还算为悖逆；我虽唉哼，他的手仍然重重责罚我。

“我的哀诉至今充满苦楚，祂的责罚使我呻吟不止。

“直到今日我还有苦情要申诉，我虽然叹息，他的手仍然沉重。

如今我的哀告還算為悖逆；我的責罰比我的唉哼還重。

「如今我的哀告還算為悖逆；我雖唉哼，他的手仍然重重責罰我。

「如今我的哀告還算為悖逆；我雖唉哼，他的手仍然重重責罰我。

“直到今日我還有苦情要申訴，我雖然歎息，他的手仍然沉重。

『就是今日我的哀怨還是沉痛呢：我雖哀聲嘆氣，他的手仍重重責罰我。

今我之愬、謂為悖逆、而所受之譴責、甚於我之呻吟、

我心焦勞、大放厥詞、彼降重災、使我欷歔欲絕。

我苦自訴、至今猶視為悖逆、或作我辨白至今覺苦甚我受之譴責、甚於我之歎息、

“ Even today my complaint is bitter; his hand is heavy in spite of my groaning.

“ Even today my problems are more than I can handle. In spite of my groans, God’s hand is heavy on me.

“ Today also my complaint is bitter; my hand is heavy on account of my groaning.

“ My complaint today is still a bitter one, and I try hard not to groan aloud.

Today also my complaint is bitter. His hand is heavy despite my groaning.

“ Even today my complaint is rebellion; His hand is heavy despite my groaning.

“ Even today my complaint is bitter; My hand is listless because of my groaning.

Even to- day is my complaint rebellious: My stroke is heavier than my groaning.

Today also my complaint is bitter. His hand is heavy despite my groaning.

Even to day[ is] my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.

“ Even today my complaint is still bitter; his hand is heavy despite my groaning.

「我厭惡自己的生命，我要傾訴我的哀怨，吐露心中的苦水。

想起我的痛苦和漂泊流離，就如苦艾和膽汁一樣苦澀。那情景縈繞心頭，使我心情沉重。

「因此我不再緘默不語，我要吐露胸中的悲愁，傾訴心裡的苦楚。

你晝夜管教我，我的精力耗盡，如水在盛夏枯竭。（細拉）

告訴你智慧的奧秘，因為真智慧深奧難懂。要知道，上帝對你的懲罰比你該受的還輕。

「要是能秤量我的苦難，把我的災殃放在秤上，那將比海沙還重；所以我言語魯莽。

我在困境中尋求主。我整夜舉手禱告，我的心無法得到安慰。我思想上帝，發出哀歎；我默想，心靈疲憊不堪。（細拉）你使我無法合眼，我心亂如麻，默然無語。我回想從前的日子，那久遠的歲月，想起自己夜間所唱的歌。我沉思默想，捫心自問：「難道主要永遠丟棄我，不再恩待我了嗎？難道祂的慈愛永遠消逝了嗎？祂的應許永遠落空了嗎？難道上帝已忘記施恩，在憤怒中收回了祂的慈愛嗎？」（細拉）
