「誠然，不幸的人在困境中呼救，無人會伸手加害他。

“然而，人仆倒岂不伸手？遇灾难岂不求救呢？

“然而，人在废墟岂不伸手？遇灾难时一定呼救。

“然而，人在废墟岂不伸手？遇灾难时一定呼救。

“诚然，不幸的人在困境中呼救，无人会伸手加害他。

然而人跌倒，怎会不伸手？人遇灾祸，怎会不呼救呢？

然而，人仆倒豈不伸手？遇災難豈不求救呢？

「然而，人在廢墟豈不伸手？遇災難時一定呼救。

「然而，人在廢墟豈不伸手？遇災難時一定呼救。

然而人跌倒，怎會不伸手？人遇災禍，怎會不呼救呢？

『然而人在荒堆、哪不伸手？人遇災禍、哪不因而呼救呢？

然人顚仆、豈不伸手、遇災豈不呼援、

上帝降災、使人喪亡、祈禱無益、呼籲無裨。

天主舉手、祈禱亦無益、天主降災於人、呼籲亦徒然、或作人傾仆之時豈不伸手求救乎人遇災之時豈不呼援乎

過路的人都嘲笑祂，搖著頭說：「你這聲稱把聖殿拆毀又在三天內重建的人啊，救救自己吧！你要是上帝的兒子，就從十字架上下來吧！」祭司長、律法教師和長老也嘲諷說：「祂救了別人，卻救不了自己！祂要是以色列的王，就從十字架上跳下來吧！我們就信祂。祂說信靠上帝，如果上帝喜悅祂，就讓上帝來救祂吧！因為祂自稱是上帝的兒子。」甚至跟祂一同被釘十字架的強盜也這樣嘲笑祂。

耶和華啊，願你的敵人都像西西拉一樣滅亡！願愛你的人如升起的太陽，光輝熠熠！」此後，以色列安享太平四十年。

我喊冤，卻無人回應；我呼救，卻不見公道。

別讓他們說：「哈哈，我們如願以償了！」別讓他們說：「我們除掉他了！」
