好像飞鸟，网罗设在眼前仍不躲避。

在飞鸟眼前张设网罗，一定会徒劳无功；

在飞鸟眼前张设网罗，一定会徒劳无功；

在飞鸟眼前设网罗，徒劳无功。

在飞鸟眼前张设网罗，是徒劳无功的。

要知道，在任何飞鸟眼前布设网罗都是无用的。

好像飛鳥，網羅設在眼前仍不躲避。

在飛鳥眼前張設網羅，一定會徒勞無功；

在飛鳥眼前張設網羅，一定會徒勞無功；

在飛鳥眼前設網羅，徒勞無功。

在飛鳥眼前張設網羅，是徒勞無功的。

像任何鳥兒眼前張着羅網，仍不足以嚇退牠；

要知道，在任何飛鳥眼前布設網羅都是無用的。

譬彼羽族、目睹網羅之設、猶不知戒、

譬諸羽族、見網羅之設、猶知飛避。

設網而羽族見之、則網徒設、

How useless to spread a net where every bird can see it!

How useless it is to spread a net where every bird can see it!

For in vain is a net spread in the sight of any bird,

If a bird sees a trap being set, it knows to stay away.

It is useless to spread a net where any bird can see it,

Indeed, it is useless to spread the baited net In the sight of any bird;

Surely, in vain the net is spread In the sight of any bird;

For in vain is the net spread In the sight of any bird:

It is foolish to spread a net where any bird can see it,

Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.

Surely it is futile to spread a net in plain sight of any bird,

For the net is spread in vain in the sight of any bird;

till an arrow pierces his liver, like a bird darting into a snare, little knowing it will cost him his life. (niv)

Even the stork in the sky knows her appointed seasons, and the dove, the swift and the thrush observe the time of their migration. But my people do not know the requirements of the Lord. (niv)

who teaches us more than he teaches the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds in the sky?’ (niv)

The ox knows its master, the donkey its owner’s manger, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand.” (niv)
