- 你趁著年幼、衰敗的日子尚未來到、就是你所說、我毫無喜樂的那些年日未曾臨近之先、當記念造你的主．
- 不要等到日頭、光明、月亮、星宿、變為黑暗、雨後雲彩反回、
- 看守房屋的發顫、有力的屈身、推磨的稀少就止息、從窗戶往外看的都昏暗、
- 街門關閉、推磨的響聲微小、雀鳥一叫、人就起來、歌唱的女子、也都衰微、
- 人怕高處、路上有驚慌、杏樹開花、蚱蜢成為重擔、人所願的也都廢掉、因為人歸他永遠的家、弔喪的在街上往來、
|
- Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of trouble come and the years approach when you will say, "I find no pleasure in them"-
- before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars grow dark, and the clouds return after the rain;
- when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men stoop, when the grinders cease because they are few, and those looking through the windows grow dim;
- when the doors to the street are closed and the sound of grinding fades; when men rise up at the sound of birds, but all their songs grow faint;
- when men are afraid of heights and of dangers in the streets; when the almond tree blossoms and the grasshopper drags himself along and desire no longer is stirred. Then man goes to his eternal home and mourners go about the streets.
