惟願知何以尋主、何以得詣其位前、

惟愿我能知道在哪里可以寻见神，能到他的台前，

惟愿我知道哪里可以寻见上帝，能到他的台前，

惟愿我知道哪里可以寻见神，能到他的台前，

但愿我知道何处能寻见上帝，知道怎样去祂的居所。

但愿我知道怎样能寻见神，能到他的台前来。

惟願我能知道在哪裏可以尋見神，能到他的臺前，

惟願我知道哪裏可以尋見上帝，能到他的臺前，

惟願我知道哪裏可以尋見神，能到他的臺前，

但願我知道何處能尋見上帝，知道怎樣去祂的居所。

但願我知道怎樣能尋見神，能到他的臺前來。

哦，巴不得我能知道哪裏可以尋見他，好到他臺前，

深願知於何處尋之、詣乎其位、

彼居何方、願聞其地、吾將往、

If only I knew where to find him; if only I could go to his dwelling!

I wish I knew where I could find him! I wish I could go to the place where he lives!

Oh, that I knew where I might find him, that I might come even to his seat!

If only I knew where to find God, I would go to his court.

If only I knew how to find him, so that I could go to his throne.

Oh that I knew how to find Him, That I might come to His home!

Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, That I might come to His seat!

Oh that I knew where I might find him! That I might come even to his seat!

If only I knew how to find Him, so that I could go to His throne.

Oh that I knew where I might find him![ that] I might come[ even] to his seat!

O that I knew where I might find him, that I could come to his place of residence!

Oh that I knew where I might find him! That I might come even to his seat!

但我欲與全能天主言、在天主前分訴辨白、

願世人得與天主辯論、如人與人辯論然、

主又語約百曰、好辯者、欲與全能之主爭乎、與天主辯者、今可答之、約百答主曰、我甚輕賤、何以答主、惟以手掩口、我已言之一而再、不敢復言復答、

先知曰、主可尋得、爾當求之、主離不遠、爾當籲之、惡人當離其途、不義者當屏除其謀、其謀或作私念歸誠於主、主必矜恤之、當歸誠於我天主、蓋天主廣行赦宥、

主歟、我仰望主行審鞫之道、我中心慕主之名、切切念主、

蓋天主在基督內、使世與己復和、不以其罪愆歸之、且以復和之道託我儕、是以我為基督之使、如天主藉我而勸爾、我代基督、求爾與天主復和、

如是、必別有得享安息者、但先聞福音者、因不信故、而不得享、

此我自辯之辭、願有聽之者、願全能之主答我、訟我者任其書我罪狀、我必以其言負於肩、戴於首以為冕、必以我動作、悉述於彼而不隱、坦然無懼、如君至其前、

主歟、我雖屢違背、獲罪於主、我之愆尤、彷彿控我、仍求主為主之名赦宥我、
