1义人的灵魂在天主手里,痛苦不能伤害他们。 | 1The souls of the just are in the hands of God and no torment shall touch them. |
2在愚人看来,他们算是死了,认为他们去世是受了惩罚, | 2In the eyes of the unwise they appear to be dead. Their going is held as a disaster; |
3离我们而去,仿佛是归于泯灭;其实,他们是处于安宁中; | 3it seems that they lose everything by departing from us, but they are in peace. |
4虽然在人看来,他们是受了苦;其实,却充满着永生的希望。 | 4Though seemingly they have been punished, immortality was the soul of their hope. |
5他们受了些许的痛苦,却要蒙受绝大的恩惠,因为天主试验了他们,发觉他们配作自己的人: | 5After slight affliction will come great blessings, for God has tried them and found them worthy to be with him; |
6他试炼了他们,好像炉中的黄金;悦纳了他们,有如悦纳全燔祭。 | 6after testing them as gold in the furnace, he has accepted them as a holocaust. |
7他们蒙眷顾时,必要闪烁发光,有如禾稭间往来飞驰的火花。 | 7At the time of his coming they will shine like sparks that run in the stubble. |
8他们要审判万国,统治万民,上主要永远作他们的君王。 | 8They will govern nations and rule over peoples, and the Lord will be their king forever. |
9倚恃上主的人,必明白真理;忠信于上主之爱的人,必与他同住,因为恩泽与仁慈,原归于他所选拔的人。 | 9Those who trust in him will penetrate the truth, those who are faithful will live with him in love, for his grace and mercy are for his chosen ones. |
10但是不虔敬的人,必因他们的思念而遭受惩罚,因为他们蔑视了义人,离弃了上主。 | 10But the godless who have ignored the upright and deserted the Lord, will meet the punishment their evil thoughts deserve. |
11轻视智慧和教训的人是有祸的:他们的希望只有落空,劳苦只有徒劳,工作只有失败; | 11Unhappy are those who put no value on wisdom and instruction, their hope is vain, their efforts useless, their work without profit; |
12他们的妻子愚蠢,子女邪恶,后裔可咒骂。 | 12their wives are foolish, their children evil, their posterity cursed. |
13荒胎无罪,而又不知床笫罪恶的妇女,是有福的;到灵魂受眷顾的时候,她必富有果实。 | 13Happy the childless wife if she is blameless and has not been guilty of adultery; she will be found fruitful on the day of judgment. |
14同样,不生育的男人,手若不作非法的行为,心不思念相反上主的恶事,是有福的;天主见他忠贞,必赐给他特赏,在上主的圣殿中,赐给他更称心的一份。 | 14And happy the impotent man who has done no evil or harbored resentful thoughts against the Lord. His fidelity will be richly rewarded with a special place in the Lord's heavenly sanctuary. |
15因为高尚的劳苦必结荣誉的果实,智慧的根蒂绝不会中断。 | 15The toil of the righteous bears choice fruit; and wise discernment is a tree that does not wither. |
16淫乱的儿子长不到成年,苟合而生的子孙必将灭绝。 | 16But the children born of adultery die young and the offspring of an unlawful union disappear. |
17他们纵使长命,也不值一文;就是到了高年,也无人尊敬; | 17If they live long, they count for nothing and are finally despised in their old age. |
18假若他们早死,也没有什么希望,在审判之日,也没有安慰。 | 18If they die young, it is without hope, and they cannot comfort themselves with thinking of the Judgment. |
19恶人后裔的结局实在悲惨。 | 19Cruel is the fate of an evil race. |
