13凡忘记 神的人,景况也是这样;不虔敬人的指望要灭没。Such is the destiny of all who forget God; so the hope of the godless will perish.
14他所仰赖的必折断;他所倚靠的是。His confidence is fragile; his security is in a spider’s web.
15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。He leans on his web, but it gives way; he holds fast, but it does not endure.
16他在日光之下发青,蔓子爬满了园子;He is a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden.
17他的根盘绕石堆,扎入石地。His roots wrap around the rock heap; he looks for a home among the stones.
18他若从本地被拔出,那地就不认识他,说:我没有见过你。If he is uprooted from his place, it will disown him, saying, ‘I never saw you.’
19看哪,这就是他道中之乐;以后必另有人从地而生。Surely this is the joy of his way; yet others will spring from the dust.
20神必不丢弃完全人,也不扶助邪恶人。Behold, God does not reject the blameless, nor will He strengthen the hand of evildoers.
21他还要以喜笑充满你的口,以欢呼充满你的嘴。He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with a shout of joy.
22恨恶你的要披戴惭愧;恶人的帐棚必归于无有。Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”
