第五十五章
4 我心在我裡面甚是疼痛,死的驚惶臨到我身。
5 恐懼戰兢歸到我身,驚恐漫過了我。
6 我說:“但願我有翅膀像鴿子,我就飛去得享安息。
7 我必遠遊,宿在曠野。
8 我必速速逃到避所,脫離狂風暴雨。”
9 主啊,求你吞滅他們,變亂他們的舌頭,因為我在城中見了強暴
爭競的事。
10 他們在城牆上晝夜繞行,在城內也有罪孽和奸惡。
11 邪惡在其中,欺壓和詭詐不離街市。

Chapter 55
4 My heart is in anguish within me;
the terrors of death have fallen on me.
5 Fear and trembling have beset me;
horror has overwhelmed me.
6 I said, “Oh, that I had the wings of a dove!
I would fly away and be at rest.
7 I would flee far away
and stay in the desert;
8 I would hurry to my place of shelter,
far from the tempest and storm.”
9 Lord, confuse the wicked, confound their words,
for I see violence and strife in the city.
10 Day and night they prowl about on its walls;
malice and abuse are within it.
11 Destructive forces are at work in the city;
threats and lies never leave its streets.
