爾曹咸知斯理、何故出此迂談。

你们自己也都见过，为何全然变为虚妄呢？

看哪，你们自己也都见过，为何全变为这样虚妄呢？

看哪，你们自己也都见过，为何全变为这样虚妄呢？

其实你们也曾亲眼目睹，为何还讲这些虚妄之言？

你们都亲自见过，你们为什么成了这么虚妄呢？

你們自己也都見過，為何全然變為虛妄呢？

看哪，你們自己也都見過，為何全變為這樣虛妄呢？

看哪，你們自己也都見過，為何全變為這樣虛妄呢？

其實你們也曾親眼目睹，為何還講這些虛妄之言？

你們都親自見過，你們為甚麼成了這麼虛妄呢？

看哪、你們自己也都見過，為甚麼你們全變為虛妄呢？

爾皆見此、何故成為虛妄、

爾曹既知之、何故出此虛誕之語、

You have all seen this yourselves. Why then this meaningless talk?

You have seen those things yourselves. So why do you continue your useless talk?

Behold, all of you have seen it yourselves; why then have you become altogether vain?

But you have seen all this, yet you say all these useless things to me.

All of you have seen this for yourselves, why do you keep up this empty talk?

Behold, all of you have seen it; Why then do you talk of nothing?

Surely all of you have seen it; Why then do you behave with complete nonsense?

Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; Why then are ye become altogether vain?

All of you have seen this for yourselves, why do you keep up this empty talk?

Behold, all ye yourselves have seen[ it]; why then are ye thus altogether vain?

If you yourselves have all seen this, Why in the world do you continue this meaningless talk?

Behold, all of you have seen it yourselves; why then have you become altogether vain?

容我竟其詞、後加姍笑可也。

我竭吾心思、詳察百事、知義人智人之所為、咸歸上帝治理、惟觀其人之所值、而上帝之眷顧與否、仍難逆料。萬民所遭、初無或異、義不義、潔不潔、祭不祭、善不善、妄誓不妄誓者、億兆亦同此賦畀。事有深可嘆息者、人生於世、心懷惡而行猖狂、終歸死地。

爾言實刺我心、令人殷憂、伊於何底。爾煩數責我、聒噪不已、何不自愧乎。

虛誕之詞、可已而不已、孰使爾嘵嘵舌戰耶。

天下事可為長太息者、有時義人遭難、幾同惡人、惡人蒙休、有類義人、我則曰、此屬於虛。

法言可從、惟爾規我、不足以輔吾德。爾意欲即我所言、以相詰責、不知絕望之人、言等飄風。爾撻煢獨、坑友朋。爾觀我為人、豈有所誑。請申言之、勿以吾為不義、或曲或直、自有能辨之者。

爾曹言詞誕妄、如庸醫治疾、斷不能愈。爾不如緘口勿語、則猶可藏拙。今我欲自折中、欲自辨析、尚其聽之。爾既明上帝降罰之故、代為剖析、豈可妄辭、豈可譫語、豈可偏視。

爾曰、霸者之殿安在、惡人之宅烏存。何不詢諸行路之人、以其言為據、其言曰、為惡之人、亦蒙矜憫、死之日友朋送喪。

爾所助、非無力者乎、爾所救、非無能者乎。爾所訓誨、非無智者乎、非欲以此彰爾明哲哉。爾之欲教者何人、爾之所感者何神。

然猶為人凌侮、屢加橫逆、
