「然而，我去東邊，祂不在那裡；我到西邊，也找不到祂。

“看哪，我往前走，他不在那里；往后退，也没有察觉他。

“看哪，我往前走，他不在那里；往后退，也没有察觉他。

我行於前、彼不在焉、我退於後、亦不見之、

“ But if I go to the east, he is not there; if I go to the west, I do not find him.

“ But if I go to the east, God isn’t there. If I go to the west, I don’t find him.

“ Behold, I go forward, but he is not there, and backward, but I do not perceive him;
