They lean on it, but it falls apart. They hold on to it, but it gives way.

他要倚靠房屋，房屋却站立不住；他要抓住房屋，房屋却不能存留。

他要倚靠房屋，房屋却站立不住；他要抓住房屋，房屋却不能存留。

他要倚靠房屋，房屋却站立不住；他要抓住房屋，房屋却不能存留。

他倚靠它，它却支撑不住；他抓紧它，它却支离破碎。

他倚靠自己的家，家却立不住，他抓紧自己的家，家却存不久。

他要倚靠房屋，房屋卻站立不住；他要抓住房屋，房屋卻不能存留。

他要倚靠房屋，房屋卻站立不住；他要抓住房屋，房屋卻不能存留。

他要倚靠房屋，房屋卻站立不住；他要抓住房屋，房屋卻不能存留。

他倚靠它，它卻支撐不住；他抓緊它，它卻支離破碎。

他倚靠自己的家，家卻立不住，他抓緊自己的家，家卻存不久。

他要倚靠家業，家業卻站立不住；他要抓住家業，家業卻不能永立。

倚室而室不立、扶室而室不存、

倚室而室傾圮、賴室賴室或作扶室而室不立、

They lean on the web, but it gives way; they cling to it, but it does not hold.

He leans against his house, but it does not stand; he lays hold of it, but it does not endure.

They cling to their home for security, but it won’t last. They try to hold it tight, but it will not endure.

He leans on his web, but it doesn’t stand firm. He grabs it, but it does not hold up.

He depends on his house, but it does not stand; He holds on to it, but it does not endure.

He leans on his house, but it does not stand. He holds it fast, but it does not endure.

He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: He shall hold fast thereby, but it shall not endure.

He leans on his web, but it doesn’t stand firm. He grabs it, but it does not hold up.

He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.

He leans against his house but it does not hold up, he takes hold of it but it does not stand.

He will lean on his house, but it will not stand. He will cling to it, but it will not endure.

The house an evil person builds is like a moth’s cocoon. It’s like a hut that’s made by someone on guard duty.

Some people come and listen to me and do what I say. I will show you what they are like.They are like a man who builds a house. He digs down deep and sets it on solid rock. When a flood comes, the river rushes against the house. But the water can’t shake it. The house is well built.But here is what happens when people listen to my words and do not obey them. They are like a man who builds a house on soft ground instead of solid rock. The moment the river rushes against that house, it falls down. It is completely destroyed.”

“ So then, everyone who hears my words and puts them into practice is like a wise man. He builds his house on the rock.The rain comes down. The water rises. The winds blow and beat against that house. But it does not fall. It is built on the rock.But everyone who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man. He builds his house on sand.The rain comes down. The water rises. The winds blow and beat against that house. And it falls with a loud crash.”

Those who do right can expect joy. But the hopes of sinners are bound to fail.

Their tombs will remain their houses forever. Their graves will be their homes for all time to come. Naming lands after themselves won’t help either.

They are torn away from the safety of their tents. They are marched off to the one who rules over death.

Evil people will see it and be upset. They will grind their teeth and become weaker and weaker. What evil people long to do can’t succeed.

So God will destroy you forever. He will grab you and pluck you from your tent. He will remove you from this life.Those who do what is right will see it and learn a lesson from it. They will laugh at you and say,“ Just look at this fellow! He didn’t depend on God for his safety. He put his trust in all his wealth. He grew strong by destroying others!”
