在那些日子，犹大的贵胄屡次寄信与多比雅，多比雅也来信与他们。

王说，谁在院子里。（那时哈曼正进王宫的外院，要求王将末底改挂在他所预备的木架上

我因没有违弃那圣者的言语，就仍以此为安慰，在不止息的痛苦中还可踊跃。
Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
请你们教导我，我便不作声。使我明白在何事上有错。
Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
因为诫命是灯，法则（或作指教）是光。训诲的责备是生命的道。

他必受伤损，必被凌辱。他的羞耻不得涂抹。
A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away.
他们行可憎的事知道惭愧吗。不然，他们毫不惭愧，也不知羞耻。因此，他们必在仆倒的人中仆倒。我向他们讨罪的时候，他们必致跌倒。这是耶和华说的。
Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD.
地阿，当听。我必使灾祸临到这百姓，就是他们意念所结的果子。因为他们不听从我的言语，至于我的训诲（或作律法），他们也厌弃了。
Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.
