我知道世人莫如時常歡喜、一生享樂；

我知道世人，莫强如终身喜乐行善；

我知道，人除了终身喜乐纳福，没有一件幸福的事。

我知道，人除了终身喜乐纳福，没有一件幸福的事。

我认识到，人生在世没有什么比欢乐、享受更好。

我知道：人一生中没有什么比喜乐和行善更好的；

我知道世人，莫強如終身喜樂行善；

我知道，人除了終身喜樂納福，沒有一件幸福的事。

我知道，人除了終身喜樂納福，沒有一件幸福的事。

我認識到，人生在世沒有什麼比歡樂、享受更好。

我曉得人生最好是尋樂享福，

我知道：人一生中沒有什麼比喜樂和行善更好的；

我知世人畢生懽愉行善、無愈於此、

以我觀之、人在斯世、莫若為善而享福。

我知世人終身、惟有喜樂與行善為美、

I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live.

People should be happy and do good while they live. I know there’s nothing better for them to do than that.

I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live;

So I concluded there is nothing better than to be happy and enjoy ourselves as long as we can.

I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and enjoy the good life.

I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good in one’s lifetime;

故此我看人莫如在他所作的事上喜樂；因為這是他的分；他身後要怎麼樣、誰能使他回來看到呢？

你要倚靠永恆主，要行善；住在地上，安安穩穩地牧放。

你們要小心，誰都不可以惡報惡，卻要在彼此相待和待眾人上時常追求良善。要時常喜樂；

囑咐他們要行善，要在好事上富足，甘心施捨，樂意同人分享，

願你們時常在主裏喜樂！我再說，願你們喜樂。你們的溫良要讓眾人知道。主已經近了。應當一無掛慮，只要凡事藉着禱告和祈求、用感謝心將你們所求的稟知在上帝面前，上帝所賜出人意外的平安、就必保守你們的心懷意念、在基督耶穌裏。末了，弟兄們，凡是真誠的、莊重的、凡是正義的、清潔的、凡是可愛的、有美名的：若有甚麼美德、甚麼可稱讚之事——你們都要思念。你們在我身上所學習所領受、所聽見所看到的、你們都要習行；賜平安的上帝就必與你們同在。

其實你們只要把裏邊的施捨給人，那麼一切對你們就都潔淨了。

先前永恆主怎樣喜悅你們，使你們得好處，人數增多，將來永恆主也必怎樣喜悅使你們滅亡、使你們消滅；你們必從所要進去取得的土地上被扯走。

喂，你只管歡歡喜喜去喫你的飯吧；心裏高興去喝你的酒吧；因為上帝已經喜悅了你的工作。你的衣服要時常潔白；你頭上也不要缺少膏油。儘你虛幻的人生、就是上帝在日光之下、儘你虛幻的年日中所賜給你的，你要同你所愛的妻子享人生之樂；因為那是你的分兒，你在人生中、和你在日光之下所努力的勞碌中、的分兒。

我凡事給你們做榜樣，讓你們知道應當這樣勞苦、扶助軟弱的人，記念主耶穌的話；他自己說過：「給予比接受更為有福」』。

哦，巴不得你迎接那悔改而行義，在你的道路上懷念着你的人哦！看哪，你震怒了，我們仍然犯罪；這樣持之已久，我們還能得救麼？
