I fade away like an evening shadow. I’m like a locust that someone brushes off.

我如日影渐渐偏斜而去；我如蝗虫被抖出来。

我如日影偏斜而去，如蝗虫被抖出来。

我如日影偏斜而去，如蝗虫被抖出来。

我像黄昏的日影一样消逝，如蝗虫一般被抖落。

我像日影倾斜，渐渐消逝，又像蝗虫被抖掉。

我如影子偏斜消逝，又如蝗虫被抖落。

我如日影漸漸偏斜而去；我如蝗蟲被抖出來。

我如日影偏斜而去，如蝗蟲被抖出來。

我如日影偏斜而去，如蝗蟲被抖出來。

我像黃昏的日影一樣消逝，如蝗蟲一般被抖落。

我像日影傾斜，漸漸消逝，又像蝗蟲被抖掉。

我如日影偏斜而去；我如蝗蟲被抖掉。

我如影子偏斜消逝，又如蝗蟲被抖落。

我之逝也、如日影沈西、如蝗蟲飄蕩兮、

余命將絕、如影沉西、亦猶蝗蟲、靡有定所兮、

我壽將盡、如日影沈西、又被驅逐、有若蝗蟲、

吾生如暮景。翳翳慘將入。身世同飛蝗。飄颻無寧息。

I fade away like an evening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.

I am gone like a shadow at evening; I am shaken off like a locust.

I am fading like a shadow at dusk; I am brushed off like a locust.

I fade away like a lengthening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.

I am passing like a shadow when it lengthens; I am shaken off like the locust.

I am gone like a shadow when it lengthens; I am shaken off like a locust.

I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.

I fade away like a lengthening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.

I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.

I am fading away like a shadow at the end of the day; I am shaken off like a locust.

I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.

The Lord changed the wind to a very strong west wind. It picked up the locusts. It blew them into the Red Sea. Not even one locust was left anywhere in Egypt.

We are outsiders and strangers in your sight. So were all of our people who lived long ago. Our days on this earth are like a shadow. We don’t have any hope.

So Moses reached out his walking stick over Egypt. Then the Lord made an east wind blow across the land. It blew all that day and all that night. By morning the wind had brought the locusts.

They grow like flowers, and then they dry up. They are like shadows that quickly disappear.

Who knows what’s good for a person? They live for only a few meaningless days. They pass through life like a shadow. Who can tell them what will happen on earth after they are gone?

Sinful people don’t respect God. So things won’t go well with them. Like a shadow, they won’t be around very long.

You don’t even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? It is a mist that appears for a little while. Then it disappears.

You were very angry with me. So you picked me up and threw me away.The days of my life are like an evening shadow. I dry up like grass.

Their lives don’t last any longer than a breath. Their days are like a shadow that quickly disappears.
