彼雖知天主、不以天主尊之、亦不謝之、乃思念虛妄、心以頑而愈昧、

因为，他们虽然知道神，却不当作神荣耀他，也不感谢他。他们的思念变为虚妄，无知的心就昏暗了。

因为，他们虽然知道上帝，却不把他当作上帝荣耀他，也不感谢他。他们的思想变为虚妄，无知的心昏暗了。

因为，他们虽然知道神，却不把他当作神荣耀他，也不感谢他。他们的思想变为虚妄，无知的心昏暗了。

他们虽然明知有上帝，却不把祂当作上帝，既不将荣耀归给祂，也不感谢祂。他们的思想因此变得荒谬无用，无知的心也变得昏暗不明。

因为他们虽然知道神，却不尊他为神，也不感谢他，反而心思变为虚妄，愚顽的心就迷糊了。

所以人是已经知道神的，但是却不把他当做神来荣耀他，也不感谢他；相反，他们在思想上变得虚妄，他们无知的心就昏暗了。

因為，他們雖然知道神，卻不當作神榮耀他，也不感謝他。他們的思念變為虛妄，無知的心就昏暗了。

他們雖然明知有上帝，卻不把祂當作上帝，既不將榮耀歸給祂，也不感謝祂。他們的思想因此變得荒謬無用，無知的心也變得昏暗不明。

因為他們雖然知道神，卻不尊他為神，也不感謝他，反而心思變為虛妄，愚頑的心就迷糊了。

因為他們雖然認識上帝，卻不看他為上帝而榮耀他，也不感謝他，反倒在思想上成為虛妄，他們蒙昧的心就昏暗了。

所以人是已經知道神的，但是卻不把他當做神來榮耀他，也不感謝他；相反，他們在思想上變得虛妄，他們無知的心就昏暗了。

顧彼既知上帝、而不以上帝榮之、亦不謝之、乃思議虛妄、心蠢而昧、

顧彼既知上帝、猶不以上帝尊之謝之、乃志意虛妄、心頑蒙昧、

夫既知有天主矣乃又不以天主事之、而頌詠稱謝焉；復因鑿空蹈虛、流連忘返、以致其冥頑之心、淪於重昏。

For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.

They knew God. But they didn’t honor him as God. They didn’t thank him. Their thinking became worthless. Their foolish hearts became dark.

For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn’t worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused.

For though they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or show gratitude. Instead, their thinking became worthless, and their senseless hearts were darkened.

For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their reasonings, and their senseless hearts were darkened.

故我念主而勸爾、勿復逞虛妄之心而行、如他異邦人、其心蒙昩、愚頑無知、而棄天主生命之道、

主如是云、昔爾列祖遠離我、從虛無之神、行虛誕之事、曾見我有何不義、

違棄主之律例、及主與其列祖所立之約、並主警戒之言、從虛無之神、行虛妄之事、主命之勿效四周異邦人所為、彼反從之、

凡以感謝為祭者始是敬奉我、行動謹慎之人、我必使之得見我之救恩、

大聲曰、爾當敬畏天主、以榮光歸之、蓋天主行審判之時已至、當崇拜造天地海及諸水泉者、

惟爾曹乃蒙選之族、有王位之祭司、成聖之國、屬主之民、主召爾出幽暗、入其妙光、欲爾宣揚其德、

誰敢不敬畏主、不歸榮於主之名、惟主為聖、萬民皆至崇拜於主前、蓋主之公義審判已顯著矣、○

我即任其心中剛愎、聽其隨意而行、

蓋爾之妄行、由爾祖所傳者、爾得贖以脫之、知非以金銀可壞之物、

人惟自顧、好利、矜誇、驕傲、訕謗、逆親、辜負、不虔敬、

蓋天主之事、人所能知者、明顯於人、因天主已示之於彼、

夫光臨世、而人因所行者惡、愛暗而不愛光、定罪之故、即在此也、

主見人在世、罪惡貫盈、心所圖維、恆為奸惡、

先知曰、主歟、主賜我以力、護我如鞏固之城、我遇難之日、就主蒙庇、異邦人自地極而來、歸誠於主、曰、我祖所承受於古、皆浮偽虛無、毫無裨益、

人不明此理、甚為愚魯、匠人必因所製偶像慚愧、蓋所鑄之偶像乃虛偽、內無生氣、悉屬虛無、迷妄者所作、受罰之時、俱必滅亡、

爾必在日中探捫、如瞽者之探捫於暗中、爾所作所為、不得亨通、恆遭暴虐搶奪、無人救援、

彼不知所得之五穀、酒、油、與所用以飾巴力之多金多銀、皆我所賜、或作彼不知所得之五穀酒油乃我所賜我多賜之金銀彼反用之以飾巴力

主所造之萬民、必皆來向主叩拜、將榮耀歸於主名、

此外、我又察得天主造人、本為正直、惟人則多計謀、逞機巧、

主享其馨香、其心曰、嗣後我必不緣人降禍於地、降禍於地原文作詛地因人自幼時、心懷惡念、我不復滅生物如前所行、

彼既不願存天主於念、天主聽其存邪僻之心、行所不當行者、

願其目矇而不見、其背屈而不伸、

作偶像者悉為虛妄、其所慕者無益、可自為證、彼不見不知、必致羞愧、誰作神像、鑄無益之偶像、其伴侶悉生愧怍、作像者、亦僅人而已、倘彼聚集而立、必皆恐懼、咸蒙羞恥、鐵工造鑿、造鑿或作截鐵炭以鍛之、鎚以治之、竭一臂之力而製造、甚至饑餓力疲、不飲水而困憊、木工用準繩、以墨畫線、用利器雕刻、循規矩製造、作如人形、猶俊美之人體、置之於室、或為己伐柏香木、或取栗樹、橡樹、或選林中他樹、或植杉樹、得雨長養、凡此之木、人用之為薪、取以暖體、用以燃火烘餅、復用以作神像叩拜、用以作偶像、俯伏其前、以其半焚於火、即用以烹肉而食、或炙肉食以果腹、又藉以暖體、曰、噫、我溫矣、覺熱矣、所餘即作神像偶像、俯伏其前叩拜、禱之曰、求爾救我、因爾即我神、惟彼不知不悟、目塗不見、心蔽不明、心不思維、無識無知、獨不自問曰、此木之半、我焚之於火、在其炭上炊餅炙肉而食、則其所餘、豈可用作可憎之偶像、豈可俯伏而拜塊木乎、彼如以灰為食、中心昏昧、入於迷途、不知自救、不自曰、我右手所作、悉屬虛妄、

彼以鈎釣取一切、以網捕之、以罟集之、因此欣喜歡樂、故向網獻祭、向罟焚香、因由此得分豐美、豐美原文作肥膩得食豐裕、

亦使異邦人、因受矜恤而欽崇天主、如經載云、因此、我必在異邦中讚美主、歌頌主名、

幽暗蒙地、晦冥掩蔽萬民、惟爾蒙主光照、主之榮光、彰顯於爾、

蓋異邦人之禮儀虛偽、所敬者乃木、伐於林中、工師以斧製之、以金銀飾之、以釘以鎚堅之、使不搖動、按鏇法作之、立如巴勒瑪樹、不能言、不能行、藉人肩負、不能降災、亦不能降福、爾勿畏之、主歟、無有可比主者、主為至大、施展大能、彰顯大名、萬民之王乎、或作皇皇萬民之主乎孰能不畏主、畏主乃所當然、列邦聖賢、天下萬國、無可比主、彼皆愚昧、同為無識、拜偶像之典章、盡屬虛妄、所拜者惟木偶、

我遣爾為明其目、俾棄暗就光、離撒但之權、歸於天主、使其因信我而罪得赦、於諸聖徒中獲業、

其中一人、見己已愈、即返、大聲讚美天主、俯伏於耶穌足下稱謝、彼乃撒瑪利亞人也、耶穌曰、得潔者非十人乎、其九安在、此異族人外、何未見一人返而歸榮天主者乎、
