朝花夕拾

約伯記13:28-14:2

NRSV:
One wastes away like a rotten thing,
like a garment that is moth-eaten.
A mortal, born of woman, few of days and full of trouble,
comes up like a flower and withers,
flees like a shadow and does not last.

馮象譯：
像一截朽木，他一碰即碎，
或是像一件蟲蛀了的衣服---
人---生於女人，該他
命途苦短，禍患沉沉！
他來世如一朵花兒，匆匆凋謝，
又彷彿飛影，從不駐足。

REB (+NEB)
Man born of woman is short-lived and full of trouble. He blossoms like a flower and withers away; fleeting as a shadow, he does not endure; he is like a wineskin that perishes or a gament that moths have eaten.
