你把他們如水沖去，他們就沉睡；他們如同清晨生長的草——

你叫他们如水冲去；他们如睡一觉。早晨，他们如生长的草，

你叫他们如水冲去，他们如睡一觉。早晨，他们如生长的草；

你叫他们如水冲去，他们如睡一觉。早晨，他们如生长的草；

你像急流一般把世人冲走，叫他们如梦消逝。他们像清晨的嫩草，

你使世人消逝，像被洪水冲去；他们好像睡了一觉；他们又像在早晨生长的草，

你冲去他们，他们就沉睡；他们如同清晨生长的草——

你叫他們如水沖去；他們如睡一覺。早晨，他們如生長的草，

你叫他們如水沖去，他們如睡一覺。早晨，他們如生長的草；

你叫他們如水沖去，他們如睡一覺。早晨，他們如生長的草；

你像急流一般把世人沖走，叫他們如夢消逝。他們像清晨的嫩草，

你使世人消逝，像被洪水沖去；他們好像睡了一覺；他們又像在早晨生長的草，

你年年把人撒播去，他們就如草早晨萌了芽；

爾衝人若大水、彼如寢寐、如朝生之草兮、

人之沒世、譬諸夢寐、譬諸草之萌櫱兮、

主使人逝世如水之流、亦使之如睡、青年如草、速然凋殘、

又如中宵夢。夢醒更已易。

Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death— they are like the new grass of the morning:

Yet you sweep people away, and they die. They are like new grass that grows in the morning.

You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning:

You sweep people away like dreams that disappear. They are like grass that springs up in the morning.

You end their lives; they sleep. They are like grass that grows in the morning—

You have swept them away like a flood, they fall asleep; In the morning they are like grass that sprouts anew.

You carry them away like a flood; They are like a sleep. In the morning they are like grass which grows up:

Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: In the morning they are like grass which groweth up.

You end their lives; they sleep. They are like grass that grows in the morning—

Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are[ as] a sleep: in the morning[ they are] like grass[ which] groweth up.

You bring their lives to an end and they“ fall asleep.” In the morning they are like the grass that sprouts up;

You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass.

有聲音說：「呼喊吧！」我就問：「我呼喊什麼呢？」凡有血肉的都像草，他們一切的榮美就像野地的花。

人醒來時怎樣輕視夢，主啊，你醒起時，也會怎樣輕視夢幻般的他們！

至於世人，他的年日如草一樣，他興旺如野地的花，經風一吹，就不復存在，連自己的地方也不再認識它。

因為，「所有的人都像草一樣，他們的一切榮耀就像草上的花；草會枯乾，花會凋謝，

因此，看哪，主必使幼發拉底河強盛的大水，就是亞述王和他所有的威勢，上漲淹沒他們，又上漲淹沒一切水道，漫過所有的河岸；然後湧入猶大，漫溢氾濫，高達頸項！他展開的翅膀，遍滿你廣闊的土地，以馬內利啊！」

富有的應當以自己被降卑而誇耀，因為他將要像草上的花那樣消逝。太陽帶著熱氣升起，草地枯萎，草上的花也凋謝，它表面的美麗也就消逝了；照樣，富有的人在他的追求中，也將衰殘。

攻打亞利伊勒的萬國眾軍，所有攻打亞利伊勒和它要塞的，以及使它受困苦的，都必像一場夢幻，又如夜間的異象——他們像飢餓的人在夢中吃飯，醒來後仍然飢餓；又像口渴的人在夢中喝水，醒來後仍然口渴、發昏。攻打錫安山的萬國眾軍也必如此。
