他们归向，但不是归向至上者；终究必如松弛的弓。他们的领袖必因舌头的狂傲倒在刀下，这在埃及地必成为人的笑柄。

彼雖回轉、然不向上、有若偏反之弓、其牧伯口出狂言、必仆於刃、在埃及地為人姍笑、

彼所歸誠者、非至上之主、如弦絕弓反、口出妄言、諸牧伯亡於鋒刃、為埃及人姍笑。

彼所歸誠者、非至上之主、彼如已翻之弓、其侯伯殞亡於刃、因其口出狂言、必因此為伊及國之人所姍笑、

They do not turn to the Most High; they are like a faulty bow. Their leaders will fall by the sword because of their insolent words. For this they will be ridiculed in the land of Egypt.

I am the Most High God. But they do not turn to me. They are like a bow that does not shoot straight. Their leaders will be killed by swords. They will die because they have spoken too proudly. The people of Egypt will make fun of them.”

They return, but not upward; they are like a treacherous bow; their princes shall fall by the sword because of the insolence of their tongue. This shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.

They look everywhere except to the Most High. They are as useless as a crooked bow. Their leaders will be killed by their enemies because of their insolence toward me. Then the people of Egypt will laugh at them.

他们退缩、背信，如同他们的祖先；他们扭曲，如同松弛的弓。

他们开口亵渎上天，他们的舌头殃及全地。

他们说：“我们要靠舌头强盛，我们的嘴唇是自己的，谁是我们的主呢？”

“有个污灵从一个人身上出来以后，走遍无水之地，寻找安歇的地方，却找不到，就说：‘我要回到我离开的那屋里去。’于是它回去，发现那里已被打扫干净，摆设整齐，就去带了另外七个比自己更邪恶的灵，进去住在那里。那个人最后的情况就比先前更坏了。”

那兽被赐予了一张说大话和亵渎话的口；它又被赐予了权柄，可以任意行事四十二个月。

那‘岩石’，是这样的人：他们一旦听了，就怀着喜乐的心接受了这话语；可是这些人没有根，他们暂时相信，而在试炼的时候，就离开信仰了。

照样，舌头虽然是身体上一个小小的部分，却能大大地自夸。看哪，那么小的火，能点燃那么大的森林！

行事诡诈的人哪，你的舌头谋算奸恶，如同磨利的剃刀！
