豈知人在榮華、不能永久、無異滅亡之畜類、

但人居尊贵中不能长久，如同死亡的畜类一样。

人居尊贵中不能长久，如同死亡的畜类一样。

人居尊贵中不能长久，如同死亡的畜类一样。

人不能长享富贵，终必死去，与兽无异。

但是人不能长享富贵；他们就像要灭亡的牲畜一样。

可是人在尊荣中不能持久，就像要灭亡的牲畜一样。

但人居尊貴中不能長久，如同死亡的畜類一樣。

人居尊貴中不能長久，如同死亡的畜類一樣。

人居尊貴中不能長久，如同死亡的畜類一樣。

人不能長享富貴，終必死去，與獸無異。

但是人不能長享富貴；他們就像要滅亡的牲畜一樣。

但人是不能久居於富貴的；他好似終被宰割的牲口一樣。

可是人在尊榮中不能持久，就像要滅亡的牲畜一樣。

人居尊位、不能久長、猶死亡之畜兮、

人爵雖顯、不得永存、猶禽獸之速亡兮。

意謂基業固。第宅保萬世。孳孳求田舍。瑣瑣標名字。

People, despite their wealth, do not endure; they are like the beasts that perish.

Even though people may be very rich, they don’t live on and on. They are like the animals. They die.

Man in his pomp will not remain; he is like the beasts that perish.

but their fame will not last. They will die, just like animals.

But despite his assets, mankind will not last; he is like the animals that perish.

But man in his splendor will not endure; He is like the animals that perish.

Nevertheless man, though in honor, does not remain; He is like the beasts that perish.

But man being in honor abideth not: He is like the beasts that perish.

But despite his assets, man will not last; he is like the animals that perish.

Nevertheless man[ being] in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts[ that] perish.

but, despite their wealth, people do not last, they are like animals that perish.

But man, despite his riches, doesn’t endure. He is like the animals that perish.

我又自思曰、世事如是乃緣人之故、蓋天主欲以試人、使人知人與獸無異、人命獸命俱同、原文作人之所遇無異獸之所遇人與獸所遇惟一死亦彼此無異、皆恃呼吸之氣、如此、人無所勝於獸、皆屬於虛、皆往一所、皆出於土、皆歸於土、孰知人之靈必升於上、獸之魂必降於下、

人在榮華中、若不省悟、即與將死亡之畜類無異、

主賜我生命、長不過掌、生存之年、在主前如同無有、一切世人、雖然豎立、亦是虛幻、細拉、

究竟爾曹亦與世人一同死亡、與他牧伯一同歸土、

經載云、凡有血氣者如草、人之諸榮如草之花、草枯花謝、

時勢或作終局如何、人不得知、如魚之入網、網原文作惡網如鳥之入羅、禍患忽臨於人、而人陷其中亦若是、○

富者謙卑當樂、或作富者可因謙卑而誇因其如草花必雕、日出曝之、草枯花謝、其色之美亡矣、富者於其所為必衰殘、亦若是、○
