| 1人生在世，豈不像服兵役？人的歲月，豈不像傭工的時日？ | 1Man's life on earth is a thankless jo his days are those of a mercenary. |
| 2有如奴工切望陰涼，傭工期待工資： | 2Like a slave he longs for the shade of evening, like a hireling waiting for his wages. |
| 3這樣，我也只有承受失意的歲月，為我註定的苦痛長夜。 | 3Thus I am allotted months of boredom and nights of grief and misery. |
| 4我臥下時說：「幾時天亮？」我起來時又說：「黑夜何時到？」我整夜輾轉反側，直到天亮。 | 4In bed I say, "When shall the day break?" On rising, I think, "When shall evening come?" and I toss restless till dawn. |
| 5我的肉身以蛆蟲與泥皮為衣，我的皮膚破裂流膿。 | 5My body is full of worms and scabs; my skin festers with its boils and cracks. |
| 6我的日月速於織梭，也因無希望而中斷。 | 6My days pass swifter than a weaver's shuttle, heading without hope to their end. |
| 7請你記住：我的生命無非像一口氣，我的眼再也見不到幸福。 | 7My life is like wind, you well know it, O God; never will I see happiness again. |
| 8注目於我的，再也見不到我；你的眼看我時、我已不在了。 | 8The eye that saw me will see me no more; when you look for me, I shall have gone. |
| 9他去了，好像雲消霧散；下到陰府的，再也不得上來。 | 9As a cloud dissolves and vanishes, so he who goes to the grave never returns. |
| 10不再回家，本鄉也不認識他。 | 10He will never come back to his house; or be seen by his household. |
| 11為此，我不能再閉口不言，我要吐露我心靈的憂愁，陳述我靈魂的苦楚。 | 11So I will not restrain my words, I will speak out in anguish; and complain with embittered soul, |
| 12我豈是海洋或海怪？你竟派警衛把守我。 | 12"Am I the sea or a monster of the deep, that you keep me under watch?" |
| 13我若想：「我的床榻會寬慰我，我的臥舖會減輕我的痛苦。」 | 13When I think my bed will comfort me and my couch will soothe my pain, |
| 14你就以噩夢擾亂我，以異像驚嚇我。 | 14then you frighten me with dreams and terrify me with visions, |
| 15我的心靈寧願窒息，寧死不願受此苦痛。 | 15I would prefer death by strangling rather than such a trial. |
| 16我已筋疲力盡，活不下去。任憑我去罷！因為我的日月僅是一口氣。 | 16See I am dying, never to live again. Leave me alone; I am finished. |
| 17人算什麼，你竟如此顯揚他，將他置諸心頭， | 17What is man that you make much of him, that you give him so much attention, |
| 18天天早晨看護他，時刻不斷考察他？ | 18that every morning you examine him and check him all the time? |
| 19你到何時纔不注視我，而讓我輕鬆咽一下唾沬？ | 19Will you never take your eyes off me and give me respite to swallow my spittle? |
| 20監察人者啊！我犯罪與你何干？為何叫我當你的箭靶，使我成為你的重擔？ | 20Suppose I sinned, what has it done to you, O keeper of mankind? Why choose me as your target? Have I become a burden to you? |
| 21為何你不肯容忍我的過錯，寬赦我的罪惡？不久我將臥在塵土中，任你尋找我，我已不在了。 | 21Why not pardon my sin and take away my guilt? For in the dust I will soon lie down; when you search for me, I shall have gone. |
