若此之人、盼死不得、求死甚於珍寶、

他们切望死，却不得死；求死，胜于求隐藏的珍宝。

他们等死，却不得死；求死，胜于求隐藏的珍宝。

他们等死，却不得死；求死，胜于求隐藏的珍宝。

他们等候死亡却等不到，他们求死胜于求宝藏。

他们想死却死不了，找死胜于找宝藏；

他們切望死，卻不得死；求死，勝於求隱藏的珍寶。

他們等死，卻不得死；求死，勝於求隱藏的珍寶。

他們等死，卻不得死；求死，勝於求隱藏的珍寶。

他們等候死亡卻等不到，他們求死勝於求寶藏。

他們想死卻死不了，找死勝於找寶藏；

為甚麼給切望着「死」而不得死的人？給挖地尋「死」、勝於尋求藏寶的人呢？

彼望死不得、掘地求之、甚於求寶藏、

彼望死亡而不能、猶人掘窖金而弗得。

to those who long for death that does not come, who search for it more than for hidden treasure,

Why is life given to those who long for death that doesn’t come? Why is it given to those who would rather search for death than for hidden treasure?

who long for death, but it comes not, and dig for it more than for hidden treasures,

They long for death, and it won’t come. They search for death more eagerly than for hidden treasure.

who wait for death, but it does not come, and search for it more than for hidden treasure,

Who long for death, but there is none, And dig for it more than for hidden treasures;

Who long for death, but it does not come, And search for it more than hidden treasures;

Who long for death, but it cometh not, And dig for it more than for hid treasures;

who wait for death, but it does not come, and search for it more than for hidden treasure,

Which long for death, but it[ cometh] not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;

to those who wait for death that does not come, and search for it more than for hidden treasures,

Who long for death, but it doesn’t come; and dig for it more than for hidden treasures,

斯時人將求死不得、欲死而死避之、

索之若銀、尋之若寶、

我若蒙主恩、與其待我若此、不如殺我、免我遭此困苦、

自行於曠野一日之程、至一所、坐於羅騰羅騰又作利騰松類樹下、且願死、曰、主歟、已矣、求主取我生命、蓋我不勝於我列祖、

日出時、天主使東風來、其氣炎熇、原文作日出時天主備乾熱之東風日暴約拿之首、約拿憊極、求死曰、我生不如死為善、

求主取我生命、蓋我生不如死為善、
