如屋巔之草、未拔而槁兮、

愿他们像房顶上的草，未长成而枯干，

愿他们像房顶上的草，一发芽就枯干，

愿他们像房顶上的草，一发芽就枯干，

愿他们像房顶的草，没长起来就已枯萎，

愿他们像屋顶上的草，尚未长大，就枯干了；

愿他们像屋顶上的草，尚未长大就枯干——

願他們像房頂上的草，未長成而枯乾，

願他們像房頂上的草，一發芽就枯乾，

願他們像房頂上的草，一發芽就枯乾，

願他們像房頂的草，沒長起來就已枯萎，

願他們像屋頂上的草，尚未長大，就枯乾了；

願他們像房頂上的草，未長大就枯乾；

願他們像屋頂上的草，尚未長大就枯乾——

如屋巔之草、未長而枯兮、

願彼如屋頂之草、未拔已枯、

猶如屋巔草。未秀先枯萎。

May they be like grass on the roof, which withers before it can grow;

May they be like grass that grows on the roof of a house. It dries up before it can grow.

Let them be like the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,

May they be as useless as grass on a rooftop, turning yellow when only half grown,

Let them be like grass on the rooftops, which withers before it grows up

May they be like grass upon the housetops, Which withers before it grows up;

Let them be as the grass on the housetops, Which withers before it grows up,

Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, Which withereth before it groweth up;

Let them be like grass on the rooftops, which withers before it grows up

Let them be as the grass[ upon] the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:

May they be like the grass on the rooftops which withers before one can even pull it up,

Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,

彼如蒿萊、不日芟刈、彼如草花、轉瞬凋零兮、

然土不深、故日出曝之、無根而槁、

耶和華曰、人背逆予、求人助己、惟人力是恃、禍必不遠。譬彼杜松、生於曠野、其地斥鹵、其壤燥烈、人蹤罕至、不沾膏澤。

彼民荏弱、驚懼懷羞、如山野之蔬、屋上之草、未及其長、為風所暴、

惡者亨通、知草萌芽、轉瞬凋零、至於永亡兮、

彼民荏弱、驚懼懷羞、如山野之蔬、屋上之草、未及其長、為風所暴、
