經云、世人惟草、其榮如花、草枯花謝、

富者、以居卑為樂、譬之草花、不免凋枯、日出曝之、草枯花謝、其美亡矣、富者必衰亦如是、

耶和華曰、我慰藉爾、斯世之人、俱將淪亡、儗於草萊、何為畏之。

有聲告我曰、爾當號呼、我曰、呼當若何、曰、庶民惟草、其榮如花、庶民惟草、草枯花凋、耶和華以風風之、則然、草枯花凋、惟我上帝之言不朽。

人之沒世、譬諸夢寐、譬諸草之萌櫱兮、清晨向榮、芽發蕊舒、至夕翦刈、遂槁枯兮、

人乃婦女誕育、既不永年、且多憂慮。若花之向榮、而遭翦伐、若影之倏忽、而無定在。人既如是、爾何必過於追求、鞫其是非哉。

一叱咤而海水涸、汲道絕矣、巴山加密已荒蕪矣、利巴嫩之榮華、倏然凋謝矣、

以法蓮建都於山嶺、望之若冠花冠、四周有谷、土壤膏腴、民人沉湎於酒、心志驕奢、不知浮榮易悴、禍將作矣。
