Because of this our hearts are faint, because of these things our eyes grow dim

这些事我们心里发昏，我们的眼睛昏花。

因这些事我们心里发昏，眼睛昏花。

因这些事我们心里发昏，眼睛昏花。

此情此景使我们黯然神伤，泪眼模糊。

为了这事，我们心里愁烦；为了这事，我们的眼睛昏花；

這些事我們心裏發昏，我們的眼睛昏花。

因這些事我們心裏發昏，眼睛昏花。

因這些事我們心裏發昏，眼睛昏花。

此情此景使我們黯然神傷，淚眼模糊。

為了這事，我們心裡愁煩；為了這事，我們的眼睛昏花；

為了這事、我們心裏發暈，為了這些事、我們的眼昏暗，

緣此我心疲憊、我目矇昧兮、

予因此瞻喪目矇兮。

我心慘怛、我目迷矇、

So our hearts are weak. Our eyes can’t see very clearly.

For this our heart has become sick, for these things our eyes have grown dim,

Our hearts are sick and weary, and our eyes grow dim with tears.

Because of this, our heart is sick; because of these, our eyes grow dim:

Because of this our heart is faint, Because of these things our eyes are dim;

Because of this our heart is faint; Because of these things our eyes grow dim;

For this our heart is faint; For these things our eyes are dim;

Because of this, our heart is sick; because of these, our eyes grow dim:

For this our heart is faint; for these[ things] our eyes are dim.

Because of this, our hearts are sick; because of these things, we can hardly see through our tears.

For this our heart is faint. For these things our eyes are dim.

Why should you be beaten anymore? Why do you persist in rebellion? Your whole head is injured, your whole heart afflicted.

My eyes fail from weeping, I am in torment within; my heart is poured out on the ground because my people are destroyed, because children and infants faint in the streets of the city.

My eyes have grown dim with grief; my whole frame is but a shadow.

My eyes grow weak with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes.

I am worn out calling for help; my throat is parched. My eyes fail, looking for my God.

“ Let all their wickedness come before you; deal with them as you have dealt with me because of all my sins. My groans are many and my heart is faint.”

And when they ask you,‘ Why are you groaning?’ you shall say,‘ Because of the news that is coming. Every heart will melt with fear and every hand go limp; every spirit will become faint and every leg will be wet with urine.’ It is coming! It will surely take place, declares the Sovereign Lord.”

“‘ As for those of you who are left, I will make their hearts so fearful in the lands of their enemies that the sound of a windblown leaf will put them to flight. They will run as though fleeing from the sword, and they will fall, even though no one is pursuing them.

What do I see? They are terrified, they are retreating, their warriors are defeated. They flee in haste without looking back, and there is terror on every side,” declares the Lord.

Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am in distress; my eyes grow weak with sorrow, my soul and body with grief.

Among those nations you will find no repose, no resting place for the sole of your foot. There the Lord will give you an anxious mind, eyes weary with longing, and a despairing heart.

I cried like a swift or thrush, I moaned like a mourning dove. My eyes grew weak as I looked to the heavens. I am being threatened; Lord, come to my aid!”

You who are my Comforter in sorrow, my heart is faint within me.

“ From on high he sent fire, sent it down into my bones. He spread a net for my feet and turned me back. He made me desolate, faint all the day long.

So that hearts may melt with fear and the fallen be many, I have stationed the sword for slaughter at all their gates. Look! It is forged to strike like lightning, it is grasped for slaughter.

Therefore, I have begun to destroy you, to ruin you because of your sins.
