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

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。

豈知人在榮華、不能永久、無異滅亡之畜類、

意謂基業固。第宅保萬世。孳孳求田舍。瑣瑣標名字。

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.

I also said to myself,“ As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals.Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless.All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return.Who knows if the human spirit rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?”

People who have wealth but lack understanding are like the beasts that perish.

You have made my days a mere handbreadth; the span of my years is as nothing before you. Everyone is but a breath, even those who seem secure.

But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler.”

For,“ All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall,

Moreover, no one knows when their hour will come: As fish are caught in a cruel net, or birds are taken in a snare, so people are trapped by evil times that fall unexpectedly upon them.

But the rich should take pride in their humiliation— since they will pass away like a wild flower.For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich will fade away even while they go about their business.
