When I looked for good, then evil came[ unto me]: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.

我仰望得好处，灾祸就到了；我等待光明，黑暗便来了。

我仰望福气，灾祸就来到；我等待光明，黑暗便来临。

我仰望福气，灾祸就来到；我等待光明，黑暗便来临。

我盼望幸福，来的却是灾祸；我期待光明，来的却是黑暗。

我希望得福乐，灾祸就来了；我等候光明，幽暗就到了。

我仰望得好處，災禍就到了；我等待光明，黑暗便來了。

我仰望福氣，災禍就來到；我等待光明，黑暗便來臨。

我仰望福氣，災禍就來到；我等待光明，黑暗便來臨。

我盼望幸福，來的卻是災禍；我期待光明，來的卻是黑暗。

我希望得福樂，災禍就來了；我等候光明，幽暗就到了。

但我希望得福，災禍竟到了；我等着亮光，竟來了黑暗。

我望福祉、而禍害至、我待光明、而幽暗來、

仰望福祉、反罹禍害、守待光明、反遭暗昧。

我望吉祥、反凶災至、我冀光明、及幽暗來、

Yet when I hoped for good, evil came; when I looked for light, then came darkness.

I hoped good things would happen, but something evil came. I looked for light, but all I saw was darkness.

But when I hoped for good, evil came, and when I waited for light, darkness came.

So I looked for good, but evil came instead. I waited for the light, but darkness fell.

But when I hoped for good, evil came; when I looked for light, darkness came.

When I expected good, evil came; When I waited for light, darkness came.

But when I looked for good, evil came to me; And when I waited for light, then came darkness.

When I looked for good, then evil came; And when I waited for light, there came darkness.

But when I hoped for good, evil came; when I looked for light, darkness came.

But when I hoped for good, trouble came; when I expected light, then darkness came.

When I looked for good, then evil came. When I waited for light, darkness came.

We looked for peace, but no good[ came; and] for a time of health, and behold trouble!

Hast thou utterly rejected Judah? hath thy soul lothed Zion? why hast thou smitten us, and[ there is] no healing for us? we looked for peace, and[ there is] no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble!

For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.

For the inhabitant of Maroth waited carefully for good: but evil came down from the LORD unto the gate of Jerusalem.

Who[ is] among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh[ in] darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.

He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.

The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and his candle shall be put out with him.

Because I was not cut off before the darkness,[ neither] hath he covered the darkness from my face.

He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.

Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable,[ which] refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar,[ and as] waters[ that] fail?

Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply[ my] days as the sand.
