难道他们不说话，站在那里无言以对，我就要等下去吗？

我岂因他们不说话，站住不再回答，仍旧等候呢？

我岂因他们不说话，因他们站住不再回答，仍旧等候呢？

我岂因他们不说话，因他们站住不再回答，仍旧等候呢？

因为他们不说话，因为他们站着不再回应，我就等待吗？

我豈因他們不說話，站住不再回答，仍舊等候呢？

我豈因他們不說話，因他們站住不再回答，仍舊等候呢？

我豈因他們不說話，因他們站住不再回答，仍舊等候呢？

難道他們不說話，站在那裡無言以對，我就要等下去嗎？

因為他們不說話，因為他們站著不再回應，我就等待嗎？

他們不說話，站住不再回答，難道我還因而仍舊等候麼？

既皆緘默、靜立無言、則我猶復待乎、

俟之良久、默然無語、不能辨駁。

我俟之良久、皆默然無語、不復答一辭、

Must I wait, now that they are silent, now that they stand there with no reply?

Do I have to keep on waiting, now that they are silent? They are just standing there with nothing to say.

And shall I wait, because they do not speak, because they stand there, and answer no more?

Should I continue to wait, now that you are silent? Must I also remain silent?

Should I continue to wait now that they are silent, now that they stand there and no longer answer?

Should I wait, because they are not speaking, Because they have stopped and no longer answer?

And I have waited, because they did not speak, Because they stood still and answered no more.

And shall I wait, because they speak not, Because they stand still, and answer no more?

Should I continue to wait now that they are silent, now that they stand there and no longer answer?

When I had waited,( for they spake not, but stood still,[ and] answered no more;)

And I have waited. But because they do not speak, because they stand there and answer no more,

Shall I wait, because they don’t speak, because they stand still, and answer no more?

这是邪恶的时代，所以明智者静默不言。

我亲爱的弟兄姊妹，请记住：每个人都要快快地听，慢慢地说，慢慢地动怒。

愚人缄默可算为智慧，闭口不言可算为明智。

但愿你们闭口不言，那样还算你们明智。
