你素来教导许多的人，又坚固软弱的手。
Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands.
你的言语曾扶助那将要跌倒的人。你又使软弱的膝稳固。
Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees.
但现在祸患临到你，你就昏迷，挨近你，你便惊惶。
But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.
你的倚靠不是在你敬畏神吗。你的盼望不是在你行事纯正吗。
Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways?
请你追想，无辜的人有谁灭亡。正直的人在何处剪除。
Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off?
按我所见，耕罪孽，种毒害的人，都照样收割。
Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.
我暗暗地得了默示。我耳朵也听其细微的声音。
Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and mine ear received a little thereof.
那灵停住，我却不能辨其形状。有影像在我眼前。我在静默中听见有声音说，
It stood still, but I could not discern the form thereof: an image was before mine eyes, there was silence, and I heard a voice, saying,
必死的人岂能比神公义吗。人岂能比造他的主洁净吗。
Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker?
何况那住在土房，根基在尘土里，被蠹虫所毁坏的人呢。
How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth?
