“ If I go east, he is not there; if west, I can’t find him;

“只是，我往前行，他不在那里，往后退，也不能见他。

“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。

“然而，我去东边，祂不在那里；我到西边，也找不到祂。

可是我往前走，他不在那里；我若往后退，我也不能见他。

只是，我往前行，他不在那裏，往後退，也不能見他。

「看哪，我往前走，他不在那裏；往後退，也沒有察覺他。

「看哪，我往前走，他不在那裏；往後退，也沒有察覺他。

「然而，我去東邊，祂不在那裡；我到西邊，也找不到祂。

可是我往前走，他不在那裡；我若往後退，我也不能見他。

『啊，我往東行，他不在那裏；往西邊呢，我也不能見他；

我行於前、彼不在焉、我退於後、亦不見之、

乃趨之於前、而彼不見、索之於後、而彼不在、

乃我往東主不在焉、往西不見之、

“ 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;

I go east, but he is not there. I go west, but I cannot find him.

If I go east, he is not there, and if I go west, I cannot perceive him.

“ Behold, I go forward but He is not there, And backward, but I cannot perceive Him;

“ Look, I go forward, but He is not there, And backward, but I cannot perceive Him;

Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; And backward, but I cannot perceive him;

If I go east, He is not there, and if I go west, I cannot perceive Him.

Behold, I go forward, but he[ is] not[ there]; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:

“ If I go to the east, he is not there, and to the west, yet I do not perceive him.

How much less when you say you don’t see him. The cause is before him, and you wait for him!

Behold, he goes by me, and I don’t see him. He passes on also, but I don’t perceive him.

He alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen.

Why do you stand far off, Yahweh? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

Most certainly you are a God who has hidden yourself, God of Israel, the Savior.’”

How long, Yahweh? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me?Behold, and answer me, Yahweh, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
