『你為甚麼使我出母胎呢？把不得我當時就氣絕，不讓人眼看見我啊！

“你为何使我出母胎呢？不如我当时气绝，无人得见我；

“你为何使我出母胎呢？甚愿我当时气绝，没有眼睛看见我。

“你为何使我出母胎呢？甚愿我当时气绝，没有眼睛看见我。

你为何让我出母腹？我不如当时就死去，无人会看见我——

你为什么使我出母胎呢？我不如死去，无人得见我，

你為何使我出母胎呢？不如我當時氣絕，無人得見我；

「你為何使我出母胎呢？甚願我當時氣絕，沒有眼睛看見我。

「你為何使我出母胎呢？甚願我當時氣絕，沒有眼睛看見我。

你為何讓我出母腹？我不如當時就死去，無人會看見我——

你為甚麼使我出母胎呢？我不如死去，無人得見我，

胡為出我於胎、莫若氣絕、無目見我、

爾胡為生我、何不遄死、勿令人見、

主何為使我出母胎、莫若當初氣絕、無目得以見我、

“ Why then did you bring me out of the womb? I wish I had died before any eye saw me.

“‘ Why did you bring me out of my mother’s body? I wish I had died before anyone saw me.

“ Why did you bring me out from the womb? Would that I had died before any eye had seen me

“‘ Why, then, did you deliver me from my mother’s womb? Why didn’t you let me die at birth?

“ Why did you bring me out of the womb? I should have died and never been seen.

‘ Why then did You bring me out of the womb? If only I had died and no eye had seen me!

‘ Why then have You brought me out of the womb? Oh, that I had perished and no eye had seen me!

Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me.

“ Why did You bring me out of the womb? I should have died and never been seen.

Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!

“ Why then did you bring me out from the womb? I should have died and no eye would have seen me!

“‘ Why, then, have you brought me out of the womb? I wish I had given up the spirit, and no eye had seen me.

願我生的那一日受咒詛！願我母親生了我的那一天不蒙祝福！那給我父親報消息說：『有男孩給你生下來了！』使我父親歡喜快樂的，願那人受咒詛！願那人像永恆主所傾覆的城，而永恆主並不改變心意的；願他早晨聽見哀呼聲，而中午時分又聽見吶喊；因為永恆主不使我死於母胎，好讓我母親做我的墳墓，而母胎永遠懷着。我為甚麼出母胎而見勞碌辛苦，以致我的年日都消耗於失望中呢？

因為它沒有把懷我的胎門閉着，沒有對我的眼隱藏着苦難。我為甚麼不從母胎就死去？為甚麼不出母腹就氣絕呢？

人子固然必須去，照指着他所記的；但是那人、人子由他而被送官的、有禍啊！那人若不生下來，對於他倒好。』

但人死了就過去；人一氣絕，究竟在哪裏呢？

我母親哪，我有禍了，你生了我做對遍地吵鬧紛爭的人！我素來沒有拿錢借給人來取利息，人也沒有拿錢借給我來取利，然而人人都咒罵我。

但惡人的眼必失明；他們逃走的路都必斷絕；他們所指望的就只是斷氣。』
