昔蒙主高舉。今為主遐遺。

我的年日如日影偏斜；我也如草枯干。

我的年日如夕阳，我也如草枯干。

我的年日如夕阳，我也如草枯干。

我的生命就像黄昏的影子，又如枯干的草芥。

我的年日好像日影偏斜，我也好像草一般枯干。

我的年日如同偏斜的影子，我像牧草那样枯干。

我的年日如日影偏斜；我也如草枯乾。

我的年日如夕陽，我也如草枯乾。

我的年日如夕陽，我也如草枯乾。

我的生命就像黃昏的影子，又如枯乾的草芥。

我的年日好像日影偏斜，我也好像草一般枯乾。

我的年日如同日影偏斜；我，我正如草枯乾。

我的年日如同偏斜的影子，我像牧草那樣枯乾。

我日如晷延長、我躬如草枯槁兮、○

余之生命、如影沉西、如草凋零兮、

我之年歲、如日影已斜、我亦枯槁如草、

My days are like the evening shadow; I wither away like grass.

The days of my life are like an evening shadow. I dry up like grass.

My days are like an evening shadow; I wither away like grass.

My life passes as swiftly as the evening shadows. I am withering away like grass.

My days are like a lengthening shadow, and I wither away like grass.

My days are like a lengthened shadow, And I wither away like grass.

My days are like a shadow that lengthens, And I wither away like grass.

My days are like a shadow that declineth; And I am withered like grass.

My days are like a lengthening shadow, and I wither away like grass.

My days[ are] like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.

My days are coming to an end, and I am withered like grass.

My days are like a long shadow. I have withered like grass.

吾生如暮景。翳翳慘將入。身世同飛蝗。飄颻無寧息。

人生如夢影。歲月同浮雲。浮雲瞬息逝。蹤跡不可尋。

富貴者應以謙恭為樂。蓋世之榮華、猶如草花、不久即謝；

大限何日屆。壽數幾多長。人無百年好。花無百日香。

小子患難日。莫掩爾慈顏。小子竭聲呼。營救莫遷延。歲月容易度。消散如雲煙。精力已枯焦。有如火相煎。

然而明日之事、固非爾所能逆知也。盍一思之、爾之生命、果為何物？人生在世、實如雲煙過眼、瞬息即杳。

經云：『人生如野草、榮華草上花草枯花亦謝：
