爾若尋求天主、向全能之主祈恩、

你若殷勤地寻求神，向全能者恳求；

你若切切寻求上帝，向全能者恳求；

你若切切寻求神，向全能者恳求；

但你若寻求上帝，向全能者恳求；

你若殷勤寻求神，向全能者恳求；

你若殷勤地尋求神，向全能者懇求；

你若切切尋求上帝，向全能者懇求；

你若切切尋求神，向全能者懇求；

但你若尋求上帝，向全能者懇求；

你若殷勤尋求神，向全能者懇求；

你若迫切尋求上帝，而向全能者懇求；

爾若勤求上帝、祈於全能者、

如爾勤求上帝、乞恩於全能之主、

But if you will seek God earnestly and plead with the Almighty,

But seek God with all your heart. Make your appeal to the Mighty One.

If you will seek God and plead with the Almighty for mercy,

But if you pray to God and seek the favor of the Almighty,

But if you earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy,

If you will search for God And implore the compassion of the Almighty,

If you would earnestly seek God And make your supplication to the Almighty,

If thou wouldest seek diligently unto God, And make thy supplication to the Almighty;

But if you earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy,

If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

But if you will look to God, and make your supplication to the Almighty,

If you want to seek God diligently, make your supplication to the Almighty.

爾若定心、定心或作洗心向天主舉手、

是以爾當服天主、爾敵魔、則魔必離爾、近天主、則天主必近爾、爾有罪者當盥手、爾懷二心者當潔心、當自苦、哀痛哭泣、爾之笑、易之以哀、爾之樂、易之以憂、當自卑於主前、則主必高舉爾、○

故如聖神云、今日爾若聽主之言、則勿剛愎爾心、如昔民之激主怒、即在曠野試主之時、

求則予爾、尋則遇之、叩門則為爾啟之、蓋凡求者必得、尋者必遇、叩門者必為之啟、

若我、則必求天主、於天主前呈訴我事、

先知曰、主可尋得、爾當求之、主離不遠、爾當籲之、惡人當離其途、不義者當屏除其謀、其謀或作私念歸誠於主、主必矜恤之、當歸誠於我天主、蓋天主廣行赦宥、

爾當恃天主、則可得平康、福祉必因此臨爾身、當受其口之訓誨、以其言存於爾心、若歸乎全能之主、由爾家家原文作幕中除奸惡、則可復興、爾當視黃金如塵土、視阿斐之寶、如河濱之石、以全能之主為爾之黃金、為積累之白銀、則可因全能之主而樂、得仰面於天主、爾祈禱天主、天主亦俯聽爾、爾必得償所許之願、爾立意欲何為、必得成之、必有光照臨爾途、人卑降之時、爾仍言我得升高、蓋謙遜者、天主必祐之、人非無辜、天主猶拯之、爾若手潔、更蒙救援、

瑪拿西於患難中禱主其天主、在列祖之天主前、極其自卑、既禱於主、主允之、俯聽其禱、使之歸耶路撒冷、仍居王位、自是、瑪拿西知惟主為天主、
