If only they were wise, they would figure it out; they would understand their fate.

惟愿他们有智慧，能明白这事，肯思念他们的结局。

惟愿他们有智慧，能明白这事，他们就会想到自己的结局。

願其有智、明乎此事、思厥終局、

願其有智而知此、思念厥終、

願其有智以明此、預思厥終、

If only they were wise and would understand this and discern what their end will be!

I wish they were wise. Then they would understand what’s coming. They’d realize what would happen to them in the end.

If they were wise, they would understand this; they would discern their latter end!

Oh, that they were wise and could understand this! Oh, that they might know their fate!

If only they were wise, they would comprehend this; they would understand their fate.

If only they were wise and they understood this; If only they would discern their future!

Oh, that they were wise, that they understood this, That they would consider their latter end!

Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, That they would consider their latter end!

O that they were wise,[ that] they understood this,[ that] they would consider their latter end!

I wish that they were wise and could understand this, and that they could comprehend what will happen to them.”

Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!

If only they had such a heart to fear Me and keep all My commands always, so that they and their children will prosper forever.

If only My people would listen to Me and Israel would follow My ways,

“ There was a rich man who would dress in purple and fine linen, feasting lavishly every day.But a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, was left at his gate.He longed to be filled with what fell from the rich man’s table, but instead the dogs would come and lick his sores.One day the poor man died and was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried.And being in torment in Hades, he looked up and saw Abraham a long way off, with Lazarus at his side.‘ Father Abraham!’ he called out,‘ Have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this flame!’“‘ Son,’ Abraham said,‘ remember that during your life you received your good things, just as Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here, while you are in agony.

As He approached and saw the city, He wept over it,saying,“ If you knew this day what would bring peace— but now it is hidden from your eyes.

“ But God said to him,‘ You fool! This very night your life is demanded of you. And the things you have prepared— whose will they be?’

Let whoever is wise understand these things, and whoever is insightful recognize them. For the ways of the Lord are right, and the righteous walk in them, but the rebellious stumble in them.

You said,‘ I will be the mistress forever.’ You did not take these things to heart or think about their outcome.

If only you had paid attention to My commands. Then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea.Your descendants would have been as countless as the sand, and the offspring of your body like its grains; their name would not be cut off or eliminated from My presence.

Let whoever is wise pay attention to these things and consider the Lord’s acts of faithful love.

The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule by their own authority. My people love it like this. But what will you do at the end of it?

Her uncleanness stains her skirts. She never considered her end. Her downfall was astonishing; there was no one to comfort her. Lord, look on my affliction, for the enemy triumphs!

Let them give thanks to the Lord for His faithful love and His wonderful works for all humanity.

He who makes a fortune unjustly is like a partridge that hatches eggs it didn’t lay. In the middle of his days his riches will abandon him, so in the end he will be a fool.

What will you do on the day of punishment when devastation comes from far away? Who will you run to for help? Where will you leave your wealth?
