因为受造之物处在虚空之下并非出于情愿，而是出于上帝的旨意。

因为受造之物服在虚空之下，不是自己愿意，乃是因那叫他如此的。

因为受造之物屈服在虚空之下，不是自己愿意，而是因那使它屈服的叫他如此。但受造之物仍然指望从败坏的辖制下得释放，得享上帝儿女荣耀的自由。

因为受造之物屈服在虚空之下，不是自己愿意，而是因那使它屈服的叫他如此。但受造之物仍然指望从败坏的辖制下得释放，得享神儿女荣耀的自由。

因为被造的万物服在虚空之下，不是自己愿意这样，而是由于使它屈服的那一位；

因为被造之物屈从在虚妄之下，并不是出于自愿，而是出于使它屈从的那一位；

因為受造之物服在虛空之下，不是自己願意，乃是因那叫他如此的。

因為受造之物屈服在虛空之下，不是自己願意，而是因那使它屈服的叫他如此。但受造之物仍然指望從敗壞的轄制下得釋放，得享上帝兒女榮耀的自由。

因為受造之物屈服在虛空之下，不是自己願意，而是因那使它屈服的叫他如此。但受造之物仍然指望從敗壞的轄制下得釋放，得享神兒女榮耀的自由。

因為受造之物處在虛空之下並非出於情願，而是出於上帝的旨意。

因為被造的萬物服在虛空之下，不是自己願意這樣，而是由於使它屈服的那一位；

被創造之物服在徒勞挫折之下、不是自願的，乃是因那叫它服在指望中者的旨意；

因為被造之物屈從在虛妄之下，並不是出於自願，而是出於使它屈從的那一位；

蓋受造之物服於虛、非其本願、因服之者之故耳、

萬物歸於虛、非其心、蓋有使之者、

萬物歸於虛、非其所願、乃有使之者、然仍有望、

夫芸芸眾生、迄今屈伏於無常之下、非出自願、有制之者耳。

For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope

The created world was held back from fulfilling its purpose. But this was not the result of its own choice. It was planned that way by the one who held it back. God planned

For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope

Against its will, all creation was subjected to God’s curse. But with eager hope,

For the creation was subjected to futility— not willingly, but because of him who subjected it— in the hope

For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope

For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;

For the creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but by reason of him who subjected it, in hope

For the creation was subjected to futility— not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it— in the hope

For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected[ the same] in hope,

For the creation was subjected to futility– not willingly but because of God who subjected it– in hope

耶和华上帝又对亚当说：“因为你听从妻子的话，吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子，地必因你而受咒诅。你必终生艰辛劳苦，才能吃到地里出产的食物。地必给你长出荆棘和蒺藜，你要吃田间长出来的菜蔬。你必汗流满面，才有饭吃，一直到你归回尘土。因为你是尘土造的，也必归回尘土。”

取名叫挪亚，他说：“耶和华咒诅了大地，以致我们艰辛劳苦，这孩子必使我们从艰辛劳苦中得安慰。”

传道者说：虚空的虚空，虚空的虚空，一切都是虚空。

我们知道一切受造之物至今都在呻吟，如同经历分娩之痛。

因为没有草，田野的母鹿抛弃了刚生下来的小鹿；因为没有草，野驴站在光秃的山头上像豺狼一样喘气，双目无神。”

大地哀恸、田野的植物枯槁要到何时呢？由于这地方居民的罪恶，野兽和飞鸟都灭绝了。他们说：“上帝看不见我们的行为。”

祂对挪亚说：“世人恶贯满盈，他们的结局到了。我要把他们跟大地一起毁灭。

他们使这片土地荒凉，以致它在我面前哀哭。遍地如此荒凉，却无人在意。

牲畜哀鸣，牛群因找不到草场而四处乱窜，羊群也受苦。

大地被世人玷污，他们违犯律法，不守律例，背弃永远的约。所以大地必遭受咒诅，世人必因罪而受惩罚。他们必被焚烧，所剩无几。

所以，这片土地要哀鸣，所有的居民都要消亡，田间的野兽、空中的飞鸟、水里的鱼类也要灭绝。”

强盗的帐篷太平，冒犯上帝、手捧神像的人安稳。“你去问走兽，它们会指教你；问天上的飞禽，它们会告诉你；向大地讨教，大地会指教你，或让海中的鱼为你阐明。它们当中哪个不知这是耶和华所为？所有生灵都在祂手中，世人的气息也不例外。
