我使猶大諸邑、及耶路撒冷街衢、無欣喜之聲、無歡樂之聲、無新娶者之聲、無新婦之聲、斯地變為荒蕪、

今也年少於我者訕笑我、其人之祖父、自我視之、不堪與守我群羊之犬同處、

郇邑之長老、坐地緘默、首蒙塵、腰束麻、耶路撒冷之處女、俯首至地、俯首至地或作頭垂塵埃

郇之路徑荒寂、因無人赴守節期、諸門蕭條、祭司嗟嘆、處女悲慘、郇民困苦、

鼓琴、作樂、品簫、吹角之聲、不復聞於爾間、百工不復見於爾間、磨聲不復聞於爾間、

我至城門、設位於衢、少者見我迴避、老者起而立、侯伯不敢言、以手掩口、有爵位者緘默、彷彿舌貼於腭、耳聞我者祝我、目睹我者譽我、因我拯援哀呼之貧民、救護無助之孤子、淪落之人、為我祝福、我使嫠婦中心歡樂、我以德善為衣衣之、以公義為袍為冕、我為瞽者之目、跛者之足、我為貧者之父、素不識者、我為之伸冤抑、我折惡人之牙、自其齒中、奪其所刼、

我必使爾中不復有謳歌之聲、不復聞琴瑟之聲、

除勇士、武士、士師、先知、卜士、長老、五十夫長、顯者、謀士、良工、術士、

葡萄焦枯、如有憂戚、葡萄樹盡衰殘、原文作新酒悲哀葡萄樹疲憊平昔心樂者、無不歎息、擊鼓之歡聲盡息、宴樂者之歡呼已止、鼓琴之歡聲亦息、不再謳歌飲酒、善飲者以醇醪為苦、邑毀而荒、宅第咸閉、無人得入、人因乏酒、在通衢哀號、一切歡樂、盡歸無有、國中喜樂無存、

必使其中、再無欣喜之聲、歡樂之聲、新娶者之聲、新婦之聲、旋磨之聲、亦使再無燈光、

萬有之主以色列之天主如是云、爾曹在世之時、我必使斯地、復無欣喜之聲、歡樂之聲、新娶者之聲、新婦之聲、此爾目睹、

我琴發悲聲、我簫發哀音、或作我琴音變為悲音我簫聲變為哭聲

我招良友、彼竟欺我、我之祭司與長老、惟求食物以充饑蘇醒、求而不得、盡亡於邑中、

當於各邑主爾天主所賜爾者、循爾諸支派設立士師有司、使其秉公鞫民、
