| 1你不要在天主前冒然开口，你的心也不要急于发言应许，因为天主在天上，你在地下，为此你说话应当简单。 | 1Speak not any thing rashly, and let not thy heart be hasty to utter a word before God. For God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few. |
| 2因为夜梦由于事务繁杂，乱语出于多言。 | 2Dreams follow many cares: and in many words shall be found folly. |
| 3你一向天主许愿，就不可拖延偿还，因为他不喜欢人怠慢；你许了愿，就应速还； | 3If thou hast vowed any thing to God, defer not to pay it: for an unfaithful and foolish promise displeaseth him: but whatsoever thou hast vowed, pay it. |
| 4不许愿好过许而不还。 | 4And it is much better not to vow, than after a vow not to perform the things promised. |
| 5不要放任你的口，使你陷于罪过，免得你在使者前说是「错许了。」为何要天主因你这句话而发怒，破坏你手中的工作？ | 5Give not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin: and say not before the angel: There is no providence: lest God be angry at thy words, and destroy all the works of thy hands. |
| 6多梦多虚幻，多言多糊涂；你要敬畏天主。 | 6Where there are many dreams, there are many vanities, and words without number: but do thou fear God. |
| 7你若在某省看见欺压穷人，违犯公道和正义的事，不必对此惊奇，因为高者之上还有更高者在上鉴察，而他们之上还有更高者。 | 7If thou shalt see the oppressions of the poor, and violent judgments, and justice perverted in the province, wonder not at this matter: for he that is high hath another higher, and there are others still higher than these: |
| 8国家全面的利益，在乎有一位关心农业的君王。 | 8Moreover there is the king that reigneth over all the land subject to him. |
| 9爱钱的，钱不能使他满足：爱财的，进益不能使他满足：这也是空虚。 | 9A covetous man shall not be satisfied with money: and he that loveth riches shall reap no fruit from them: so this also is vanity. |
| 10钱财增多，消费的人也随之增多；财主除饱享眼福外，能有什么益处？ | 10Where there are great riches, there are also many to eat them. And what doth it profit the owner, but that he seeth the riches with his eyes? |
| 11工人不论吃多吃少，总睡得甘甜；饱食的富人，却难于安眠。 | 11Sleep is sweet to a labouring man, whether he eat little or much: but the fulness of the rich will not suffer him to sleep. |
| 12我看见在太阳下有一件惨痛的事：财主积蓄财富，反而害了自己。 | 12There is also another grievous evil, which I have seen under the sun: riches kept to the hurt of the owner. |
| 13生意一次失败，财产尽失：生了个儿子，手中一无所有。 | 13For they are lost with very great affliction: he hath begotten a son, who shall be in extremity of want. |
| 14他赤身出离母胎，也照样赤身归去；他劳力之所得，丝毫不能带去。 | 14As he came forth naked from his mother's womb, so shall he return, and shall take nothing away with him of his labour. |
| 15这也是一件惨痛的事：他怎样来，也怎样去；他操劳追风，究有什么益处； | 15A most deplorable evil: as he came, so shall he return. What then doth it profit him that he hath laboured for the wind? |
| 16况且他一生在黑暗中生活，遭受许多烦恼、疾病和悲愤的事。 | 16All the days of his life he eateth in darkness, and in many cares, and in misery, and sorrow. |
| 17我所认为幸福美满的事，是人在天主所赏的少数岁月内，有吃有喝，且享受他在太阳下一切劳碌所得的福乐，这原是他应得的一分。 | 17This therefore hath seemed good to me, that a man should eat and drink, and enjoy the fruit of his labour, wherewith he hath laboured under the sun, all the days of his life, which God hath given him: and this is his portion. |
| 18的确，天主赏赐人财产和富裕，叫他能享用；能取得应有的一分，能享受劳碌所得的快乐，实是天主的恩赐。 | 18And every man to whom God hath given riches, and substance, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to enjoy his portion, and to rejoice of his labour: this is the gift of God. |
| 19那么，人就不甚顾虑人生岁月的短促，因为天主以喜乐充满了他的心。 | 19For he shall not much remember the days of his life, because God entertaineth his heart with delight, |
