他若專心為己，將靈和氣收歸自己，

他若专心为己，将灵和气收归自己，

他若专心为己，将灵和气收归自己，

他若专心为己，将灵和气收归自己，

上帝若决定收回自己的灵和气，

他若对人决心这样作，他若把灵与气收归自己，

他若專心為己，將靈和氣收歸自己，

他若專心為己，將靈和氣收歸自己，

上帝若決定收回自己的靈和氣，

他若對人決心這樣作，他若把靈與氣收歸自己，

他若將生氣收回於自己，將氣息收拾歸自己，

彼若定志為己、使神與氣歸之、

如定其意旨、不使人通呼吸、

天主所賜之生氣、如定意使歸於己、

If it were his intention and he withdrew his spirit and breath,

If he really wanted to, he could hold back his spirit and breath.

If he should set his heart to it and gather to himself his spirit and his breath,

If God were to take back his spirit and withdraw his breath,

If he put his mind to it and withdrew the spirit and breath he gave,

If He were to determine to do so, If He were to gather His spirit and His breath to Himself,

If He should set His heart on it, If He should gather to Himself His Spirit and His breath,

If he set his heart upon himself, If he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;

If He put His mind to it and withdrew the spirit and breath He gave,

If he set his heart upon man,[ if] he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;

If God were to set his heart on it, and gather in his spirit and his breath,

If he set his heart on himself, if he gathered to himself his spirit and his breath,

你轉臉，牠們就驚惶；你收回牠們的氣，牠們就死亡，歸於塵土。

他心裏有智慧，且大有能力。誰向上帝剛硬而得平安呢？

人算甚麼，你竟看他為大，將他放在心上，

他們必被聚集，像囚犯困在牢裏，他們被關在監獄，多日之後便受懲罰。
