因为神是全地的王。你们要用悟性歌颂。
For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
神作王治理万国。神坐在他的圣宝座上。
God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
列邦的君王聚集，要作亚伯拉罕之神的民。因为世界的盾牌，是属神的。他为至高。
The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted.
巴比伦的处女阿，下来坐在尘埃，迦勒底的闺女阿，没有宝座，要坐在地上，因为你不再称为柔弱娇嫩的。
Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate.
要用磨磨面。揭去帕子，脱去长衣，露腿趟河。
Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers.
你的下体必被露出，你的丑陋必被看见。我要报仇，谁也不宽容。
Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man.
你自己说，我必永为主母，所以你不将这事放在心上，也不思想这事的结局。

你这专好宴乐，安然居住的，现在当听这话，你心中说，惟有我，除我以外再没有别的，我必不至寡居，也不遭丧子之事。
Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:
你素来倚仗自己的恶行，说，无人看见我。你的智慧，聪明，使你偏邪，并且你心里说，惟有我，除我以外再没有别的。
For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me.
因此，祸患要临到你身，你不知何时发现。（何时发现或作如何驱逐）灾害落在你身上，你也不能除掉。所不知道的毁灭，也必忽然临到你身。
Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.
