或經其地、彼已烏有、我尋覓之、不得見兮、

有人从那里经过，不料，他没有了；我也寻找他，却寻不着。

有人从那里经过，看哪，他已不存在，我寻找他，却寻不着了。

有人从那里经过，看哪，他已不存在，我寻找他，却寻不着了。

再一看，他已经消失得无影无踪，无处可寻。

但他很快就消逝，不再存在了；我寻找他，却找不到。

但他很快就消逝了，看哪，他不复存在！虽然我寻找他，却找不到。

有人從那裏經過，不料，他沒有了；我也尋找他，卻尋不着。

有人從那裏經過，看哪，他已不存在，我尋找他，卻尋不着了。

有人從那裏經過，看哪，他已不存在，我尋找他，卻尋不着了。

再一看，他已經消失得無影無蹤，無處可尋。

但他很快就消逝，不再存在了；我尋找他，卻找不到。

我從那裏經過，啊，已經沒有了；我尋找他，卻找不着。

但他很快就消逝了，看哪，他不復存在！雖然我尋找他，卻找不到。

曾幾何時、其人已非、不得其所兮。

忽然滅沒、歸於無有、我尋覓之、亦不見矣、

旋復經其宅。蕭條不見人。

but he soon passed away and was no more; though I looked for him, he could not be found.

But he soon passed away and was gone. Even though I looked for him, I couldn’t find him.

But he passed away, and behold, he was no more; though I sought him, he could not be found.

But when I looked again, they were gone! Though I searched for them, I could not find them!

Then I passed by and noticed he was gone; I searched for him, but he could not be found.

Then he passed away, and behold, he was no more; I searched for him, but he could not be found.

Yet he passed away, and behold, he was no more; Indeed I sought him, but he could not be found.

But one passed by, and, lo, he was not: Yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.

Then I passed by and noticed he was gone; I searched for him, but he could not be found.

But then one passes by, and suddenly they have disappeared! I looked for them, but they could not be found.

But he passed away, and behold, he was not. Yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.

再延片時、惡者歸於烏有、察其居所、已杳然兮、

敵云、我將追之、且必及之、分其財物、以厭我心、拔我刀劍、手殲厥眾、爾吹以風、海則淹之、如鉛之沉、沒於洪水、

作惡者誇勝不長久、不虔者喜樂祇俄頃、其尊雖薄天、其首雖及雲、終必永亡、同於己糞、素見之者、將曰其人安在、彼必飛逝如夢、尋之不得、被逐若夜間之異象、見之之日、不再見之、其所不復睹之、其子必丐恩於貧者、所得之財、手自償之、其骨壯如青年、必與之同臥於土、邪慝雖甘於口中、藏於舌底、愛戀不舍、久含於口、其食至腹則變、成為虺膽於中、彼吞貨財、必吐之、上帝使之出於其腹、必吸虺之毒、蝮舌必殺之、流蜜與乳之河、彼不得見、勞力所獲、必償還之、不得吞之、所獲之財、不得因之而樂、蓋彼虐遇貧民、而遺棄之、強據第宅、不得建立、以其中心無厭、故所悅者、無一存留、所遺無不吞噬、故其昌盛弗久、當富有充裕時、必遭艱窘、困苦之人、咸加手於其身、彼將果腹、上帝降以烈怒、食時雨於厥躬、逃避鐵器、銅弓發矢穿之、自拔而出之、光明之鏃、離乎其膽、而威烈臨焉、凡諸幽暗、為其財寶而集、非人所燃之火、必焚其身、滅其幕中所遺、天必彰其罪、地起而攻之、其家產過而不留、消亡於上帝震怒之日、此乃惡人由上帝所得之分、上帝為彼所定之業、

萬軍之主耶和華、必以威烈伐其枝、雄幹見斫、高者降卑、以鐵斬其叢林、利巴嫩為力士所毀、

法老之馬、與其車騎入海、耶和華使水回流淹沒之、惟以色列人在海中行陸地、

緣此、萬軍之主耶和華、將使肥者為瘠、其貨財之下、如爇火而焚、以色列之光為火、其聖者為焰、一日之間、燬其荊棘蒺藜、爇其茂林腴田之榮華、身心俱滅、勢如病者日漸衰頹、其林遺木無幾、童穉可記錄之、○

民呼曰、此神之聲、非人之聲也、希律不歸榮上帝、主之使即擊之、為蟲所蝕而氣絕、○
