Chapter 14

1 Man120 that is born3205 of a woman802 is of few7116 days,3117 and full7649 of trouble.7267

2 He cometh forth3318 like a flower,6731 and is cut down:5243 he fleeth1272 also as a shadow,6738 and continueth5975 not.3808

3 And637 dost thou open6491 thine eyes5869 upon5921 such a one,2088 and bringest935 me into judgment4941 with5973 thee?

4 Who4310 can bring5414 a clean2889 thing out of an unclean?4480 2931 not3808 one.259

5 Seeing518 his days3117 are determined,2782 the number4557 of his months2320 are with854 thee, thou hast appointed6213 his bounds2706 that he cannot3808 pass;5674

6 Turn8159 from4480 5921 him, that he may rest,2308 till5704 he shall accomplish,7521 as a hireling,7916 his day.3117

7 For3588 there is3426 hope8615 of a tree,6086 if518 it be cut down,3772 that it will sprout2498 again,5750 and that the tender3127 branch thereof will not3808 cease.2308

8 Though518 the root8328 thereof wax old2204 in the earth,776 and the stock1503 thereof die4191 in the ground;6083

9 Yet through the scent4480 7381 of water4325 it will bud,6524 and bring forth6213 boughs7105 like3644 a plant.5194

10 But man1397 dieth,4191 and wasteth away:2522 yea, man120 giveth up the ghost,1478 and where346 is he?

11 As the waters4325 fail235 from4480 the sea,3220 and the flood5104 decayeth2717 and drieth up: 3001

12 So man376 lieth down,7901 and riseth6965 not:3808 till5704 the heavens8064 be no more,1115 they shall not3808 awake,6974 nor3808 be raised5782 out of their sleep.4480 8142

13 O that4310 thou wouldest5414 hide6845 me in the grave,7585 that thou wouldest keep me secret,5641 until5704 thy wrath639 be past,7725 that thou wouldest appoint7896 me a set time,2706 and remember2142 me!

14 If518 a man1397 die,4191 shall he live2421 again? all3605 the days3117 of my appointed time6635 will I wait,3176 till5704 my change2487 come.935

15 Thou shalt call,7121 and I595 will answer6030 thee: thou wilt have a desire3700 to the work4639 of thine hands.3027

16 For3588 now6258 thou numberest5608 my steps:6806 dost thou not3808 watch8104 over5921 my sin?2403

17 My transgression6588 is sealed up2856 in a bag,6872 and thou sewest up2950 5921 mine iniquity.5771

18 And surely199 the mountain2022 falling5307 cometh to naught,5034 and the rock6697 is removed6275 out of his place.4480 4725

19 The waters4325 wear7833 the stones:68 thou washest away7857 the things which grow5599 out of the dust6083 of the earth;776 and thou destroyest6 the hope8615 of man.582

20 Thou prevailest8630 forever5331 against him, and he passeth:1980 thou changest8138 his countenance,6440 and sendest him away.7971

21 His sons1121 come to honor,3513 and he knoweth3045 it not;3808 and they are brought low,6819 but he perceiveth995 it not3808 of them.3926

22 But389 his flesh1320 upon5921 him shall have pain,3510 and his soul5315 within5921 him shall mourn.56

第14章

1 人乃婦女誕育、旣不永年、且多憂慮。

2 若花之向榮、而遭翦伐、若影之倏忽、而無定在。

3 人旣如是、爾何必過於追求、鞫其是非哉。

4 未有源濁而流清者。

5 人之生也、其數有定、其限難越、爾使之然、

6 姑舍我、俾得息肩、樂終天年、猶傭之喜於入息。

7 林木旣斫、萌櫱可望、生機難遏。

8 其植於地也、根雖老、幹雖槁、

9 潤以雨露、芽萌株發、可儗新栽。

10 人則異是、始則血衰、旣而氣絕、歸於無有。

11 如潦之易竭、如澮之立涸、

12 屈而不伸、寢而不寤、必也彼蒼窮盡之日、斯人有復生之時。

13 願上帝藏我於墓寢、否則處我於隱僻、以俟災消禍弭、又不然、定以何日、然後釋我。

14 人旣死亡、豈能復生、我生苦境、必有終年、乃逝世。

15 爾問我答、我爲爾所造、爾當眷顧。

16 乃勘我行事、察我愆尤、

17 錄我罪弗忘、增我過維倍。

18 山頹不起、磐移不囘。

19 霤穿石則漸靡、浪淘沙則不見、人而絕望亦若是。

20 爾殘人生命、使之逝世。變人容色、使之絕氣。

21 子孫之榮辱、俱不及知。

22 惟其身痛楚、其心殷憂而已。
