然念斯理、殊難解兮。

我思索怎能明白这事，眼看实系为难，

我思索要明白这事，眼看实系为难，

我思索要明白这事，眼看实系为难，

我想明白这一切，却百思不得其解。

我思想要明白这事，我就看为烦恼；

我思想，要明白这事，这在我眼中实在困惑；

我思索怎能明白這事，眼看實係為難，

我思索要明白這事，眼看實係為難，

我思索要明白這事，眼看實係為難，

我想明白這一切，卻百思不得其解。

我思想要明白這事，我就看為煩惱；

我直思索着要明白這事，看來實在為難；

我思想，要明白這事，這在我眼中實在困惑；

我思此事、而欲悉之、視為極苦兮、

若欲自明此理、我目中見為甚難、

欲探箇中理。枯腸費搜索。

When I tried to understand all this, it troubled me deeply

I tried to understand it all. But it was more than I could handle.

But when I thought how to understand this, it seemed to me a wearisome task,

So I tried to understand why the wicked prosper. But what a difficult task it is!

When I tried to understand all this, it seemed hopeless

When I thought of understanding this, It was troublesome in my sight

When I thought how to understand this, It was too painful for me—

When I thought how I might know this, It was too painful for me;

When I tried to understand all this, it seemed hopeless

When I thought to know this, it[ was] too painful for me;

When I tried to make sense of this, it was troubling to me.

When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me,

亦見有人、欲觀上帝之經綸、竭其心思、而不能得、有智之士、雖欲知之、亦不及知。

奧哉、上帝何智慧之大乎、其法不可測、其蹤不可追、

其將解與異邦人、戲玩、凌辱、唾之、鞭扑、殺之、三日復生、斯語隱藏、門徒未達、不知所謂、○

且頃之云者、果何意耶、我不知其所謂也、耶穌知其欲問、則曰、我言頃之不見我、復頃之見我、爾曹得毋相詰乎、

各人所為、無非捉影、諠譟徒勞兮、積累財貨、不知孰得兮。

彼居厥位、幽深玄遠、以大公為址、以仁義為基兮、

爾之公義、如高山、爾之法度、如深淵兮、爾祐人民、恩及禽獸兮、

爾乃判海為途、分水為徑、其蹤不得而見兮。
