我因一切敌人成了羞辱,在我的邻舍跟前更甚。那认识我的都惧怕我。在外头看见我的都躲避我。
I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.
我被人忘记,如同死人,无人记念。我好像破碎的器皿。
I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.
我终身的事在你手中。求你救我脱离仇敌的手,和那些逼迫我的人。
My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.
至于我,我曾急促的说,我从你眼前被隔绝。然而我呼求你的时候,你仍听我恳求的声音。
For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.
凡仰望耶和华的人,你们都要壮胆,坚固你们的心。
Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.
利慕伊勒王的言语,是他母亲教训他的真言。
The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him.
我的儿阿,我腹中生的儿阿,我许愿得的儿阿,我当怎样教训你呢。
What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?
不要将你的精力给妇女,也不要有败坏君王的行为。
Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
可以把浓酒给将亡的人喝。把清酒给苦心的人喝。
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
让他们喝了,就忘记他的贫穷,不在记念他的苦楚。
Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
