于是，我又观察日光之下的一切欺压之事。我看见受欺压的泪流满面，无人安慰。因为欺压者有权有势，所以无人安慰他们。

我又转念，见日光之下所行的一切欺压。看哪，受欺压的流泪，且无人安慰；欺压他们的有势力，也无人安慰他们。

我转而观看日光之下所发生的一切欺压之事。看哪，受欺压的流泪，无人安慰；欺压他们的有权势，也无人安慰。

我转而观看日光之下所发生的一切欺压之事。看哪，受欺压的流泪，无人安慰；欺压他们的有权势，也无人安慰。

我又看见日光之下所发生一切欺压的事：受欺压的流泪，却无人安慰他们；欺压他们的，手里握着权柄，因此无人安慰受欺压的。

我转眼又看到在日光之下所行的一切欺压。看哪，受欺压者流泪，无人安慰他们！权势在欺压他们的人手中，却无人安慰受欺压者！

我又轉念，見日光之下所行的一切欺壓。看哪，受欺壓的流淚，且無人安慰；欺壓他們的有勢力，也無人安慰他們。

我轉而觀看日光之下所發生的一切欺壓之事。看哪，受欺壓的流淚，無人安慰；欺壓他們的有權勢，也無人安慰。

我轉而觀看日光之下所發生的一切欺壓之事。看哪，受欺壓的流淚，無人安慰；欺壓他們的有權勢，也無人安慰。

於是，我又觀察日光之下的一切欺壓之事。我看見受欺壓的淚流滿面，無人安慰。因為欺壓者有權有勢，所以無人安慰他們。

我又看見日光之下所發生一切欺壓的事：受欺壓的流淚，卻無人安慰他們；欺壓他們的，手裡握著權柄，因此無人安慰受欺壓的。

我又看、日光之下所行的一切欺壓：看哪，受欺壓的流淚，無人安慰！欺壓他們的、手裏有勢力，也無人安慰！

我轉眼又看到在日光之下所行的一切欺壓。看哪，受欺壓者流淚，無人安慰他們！權勢在欺壓他們的人手中，卻無人安慰受欺壓者！

我轉觀日下所行之虐、見受虐者流涕、慰藉無人、行虐者有權、受虐者不得慰藉、

我復思天下之秉鈞者、虐遇民人、民罹其酷、靡不墮淚、慰藉無人。

我復見日下多有冤屈、受屈者流淚、慰之者無人、虐之者勢大、慰之者無人、

Again I looked and saw all the oppression that was taking place under the sun: I saw the tears of the oppressed— and they have no comforter; power was on the side of their oppressors— and they have no comforter.

I looked and saw how much people were suffering on this earth. I saw the tears of those who are suffering. They don’t have anyone to comfort them. Power is on the side of those who treat them badly. Those who are suffering don’t have anyone to comfort them.

Again I saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold, the tears of the oppressed, and they had no one to comfort them! On the side of their oppressors there was power, and there was no one to comfort them.

Again, I observed all the oppression that takes place under the sun. I saw the tears of the oppressed, with no one to comfort them. The oppressors have great power, and their victims are helpless.

Again, I observed all the acts of oppression being done under the sun. Look at the tears of those who are oppressed; they have no one to comfort them. Power is with those who oppress them; they have no one to comfort them.

Then I looked again at all the acts of oppression which were being done under the sun. And behold, I saw the tears of the oppressed and that they had no one to comfort them; and power was on the side of their oppressors, but they had no one to comfort them.

Then I returned and considered all the oppression that is done under the sun: And look! The tears of the oppressed, But they have no comforter— On the side of their oppressors there is power, But they have no comforter.

Then I returned and saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and, behold, the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter.

Again, I observed all the acts of oppression being done under the sun. Look at the tears of those who are oppressed; they have no one to comfort them. Power is with those who oppress them; they have no one to comfort them.

So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of[ such as were] oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors[ there was] power; but they had no comforter.

So I again considered all the oppression that continually occurs on earth. This is what I saw: The oppressed were in tears, but no one was comforting them; no one delivers them from the power of their oppressors.

Then I returned and saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold, the tears of those who were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter.

我又看到日光之下，即使在公道和正义之地也有邪恶。

万军之耶和华的葡萄园就是以色列，祂所喜爱的葡萄树就是犹大人。祂希望看到公平，却只看见杀戮；指望看到公义，却只听见冤声。

若你在某地看见穷人受欺压，公平正义被扭曲，不要震惊，因为官上有官，在众官之上还有更高的官。

工人替你们收割庄稼，你们却克扣他们的工钱。那工钱发出不平的呼喊，工人的冤声已经传到万军之主的耳中了。

她在夜间痛哭，泪流满面。情人中没有一个前来安慰。朋友都出卖她，与她为敌。

她的裙子沾满污秽，她未曾想过自己的结局。她的败落无比凄惨，无人安慰。她哭喊道：“耶和华啊，仇敌已经获胜，求你垂顾我的苦难！”

不过这一切事的发生，是要应验先知书上的话。”那时，门徒都丢下祂逃走了。

万军之耶和华说：“我要来到你们当中施行审判，速速作证指控那些行邪术的、通奸的、起假誓的、克扣工人薪水的、欺压寡妇孤儿的、冤枉异乡人的，以及不敬畏我的。

我们悖逆，否认耶和华，离弃我们的上帝，说欺压、叛逆的话，吐露心中编织的谎言。正义被赶逐，公义不能靠近，真理倒在街上，正直被拒之门外。真理无处可寻，远离恶事的人反成了猎物。耶和华因正义荡然无存而不悦。

看看我左右，无人关心我；我走投无路，无人眷顾我。

监工不给仆人们草，却命令我们做砖，还打我们，其实是你百姓的错。”法老说：“你们是懒惰的人，懒惰的人！所以才嚷着要去给耶和华献祭。回去继续工作！我不再供应草给你们，但砖要如数交齐。”以色列人的工头听见每天做的砖数不可减少，就知道情况不妙。

我对上帝——我的磐石说：“你为何忘记我？为何要我受仇敌的攻击，使我哀伤不已呢？”

你们奔向邪恶，急于滥杀无辜；你们心怀恶念，所到之处大肆毁灭。

耶和华向他们发怒，把他们交在非利士人和亚扪人手中。那年，非利士人和亚扪人击垮了以色列人，压迫基列地区、约旦河东亚摩利境内的以色列人达十八年。

我不吃不喝，昼夜以泪洗面，人们整天讥笑我：“你的上帝在哪里？”

他们整夜赤身露体，没有被子可以御寒。他们被山雨浇透，只能在岩石下栖身。恶人夺去寡母怀中的孤儿，强取穷人的孩子作抵押，使他们赤身露体地流浪，饿着肚子扛禾捆。他们在恶人的橄榄林中榨油，口干舌燥地在酒池踩踏。城中传来垂死之人的呻吟，受伤者不断呼救，上帝却置之不理。

耶和华说：“我要保护受欺压的困苦人和哀叹的贫穷人，使他们如愿以偿。”

那时，民众和他们的妻子都抱怨他们的犹太同胞。有的说：“我们和我们的儿女人口众多，需要粮食来活命。”有的说：“因为饥荒的缘故，我们要将田地、葡萄园和房屋作抵押来获取粮食。”有的说：“我们要借钱才能缴纳王对我们的田地和葡萄园征收的税。我们和他们是同胞，我们的孩子就像他们的孩子。但现在我们的儿女要被迫成为仆婢，甚至我们的女儿有些已经沦为奴婢。我们却无能为力，因为我们的田地和葡萄园已经归别人了。”

他们的辱骂使我心碎，令我绝望无助。我渴望有人同情，却没有一个；期望有人安慰，却无一人。

欺压使智者变愚昧，贿赂败坏人心。

倘若你我易地而处，我也能说你们那样的话，滔滔不绝地攻击你们，向你们摇头。

我必把这杯给苦待你的人，他们曾对你说，‘趴下，我们好从你身上走过。’你曾把你的背当作地面，当作街道任人践踏。”

我的仇敌终日辱骂我，嘲笑我的用我的名字咒诅人。我以炉灰为食物，眼泪拌着水喝，

后来，法老命令全埃及的人把以色列人生的所有男婴都抛进尼罗河里，只让女婴活着。

他们像狮子埋伏在暗处，猎取无助的人，用网罗拖走他们。不幸的人被击垮，倒在他们的暴力下。

那时，你们将再度看出义人与恶人之间的区别，事奉上帝者和不事奉上帝者之间的不同。

耶宾王拥有九百辆铁战车，他残暴地压迫以色列人二十年。以色列人向耶和华呼求。

请以仁慈为怀，公正一点；请以仁慈为怀，因我诚实无过。

于是，埃及人更残酷地奴役他们，强迫他们和泥造砖，并做田间一切的苦工，使他们痛苦不堪。

穷人被亲人厌弃，朋友都远远躲避。他苦苦哀求，也无人理会。

另外，你们哀哭悲叹，眼泪甚至淹没了耶和华的祭坛，因为耶和华不再理会你们的供物，不再悦纳你们所献的。

“你们在替希伯来妇女接生的时候，如果看到生下的是男婴，就把他杀掉；如果是女婴，就让她活下来。”

你使我们以泪洗面，以哀伤果腹，

“我的朋友啊，可怜我吧！可怜我吧！因为上帝的手击打我。你们为何像上帝一样逼我？为何吃了我的肉还不满足？

“人们因饱受压迫而呼求，因强权者的压制而求救。

暴虐的君王辖制穷人，如咆哮的狮、觅食的熊。昏庸的君王残暴不仁，恨不义之财的享长寿。

穷人欺压贫民，如暴雨冲毁粮食。

我第一次在法庭申辩的时候，没有人帮助我，众人都离弃了我，但愿他们不会因此而获罪。然而主站在我身旁加给我力量，使我可以把福音清楚地传给外族人。主把我从狮子口里救了出来。

“与你们素不相识的民族必吃光你们土地的出产和劳碌所得，你们必常受欺压，

过了多年，埃及王死了。以色列人受尽奴役，就哀叹呼求，声音传到上帝那里。上帝听见他们的哀声，顾念从前跟亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各所立的约，

你们必失去所有，饥饿干渴、赤身裸体地侍奉耶和华派来攻击你们的敌人。祂要把铁轭加在你们的颈上，直到消灭你们。
