Ecclesiastes 6

Clementine Vulgate, 1598Translation
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1[Est et aliud malum quod vidi sub sole, et quidem frequens apud homines:
1我見日光之下有一宗禍患重壓在人身上，
2vir cui dedit Deus divitias, et substantiam, et honorem, et nihil deest animæ suæ ex omnibus quæ desiderat; nec tribuit ei potestatem Deus ut comedat ex eo, sed homo extraneus vorabit illud: hoc vanitas et miseria magna est.
2就是人蒙上帝賜他資財、豐富、尊榮，以致他心裏所願的一樣都不缺，只是上帝使他不能吃用，反有外人來吃用。這是虛空，也是禍患。
3Si genuerit quispiam centum liberos, et vixerit multos annos, et plures dies ætatis habuerit, et anima illius non utatur bonis substantiæ suæ, sepulturaque careat: de hoc ergo pronuntio quod melior illo sit abortivus.
3人若生一百個兒子，活許多歲數，以致他的年日甚多，心裏卻不得滿享福樂，又不得埋葬；據我說，那不到期而落的胎比他倒好。
4Frustra enim venit, et pergit ad tenebras, et oblivione delebitur nomen ejus.
4因為虛虛而來，暗暗而去，名字被黑暗遮蔽，
5Non vidit solem, neque cognovit distantiam boni et mali.
5並且沒有見過天日，也毫無知覺；這胎，比那人倒享安息。
6Etiam si duobus millibus annis vixerit, et non fuerit perfruitus bonis, nonne ad unum locum properant omnia?
6那人雖然活千年，再活千年，卻不享福，眾人豈不都歸一個地方去嗎？
7Omnis labor hominis in ore ejus; sed anima ejus non implebitur.
7人的勞碌都為口腹，心裏卻不知足。
8Quid habet amplius sapiens a stulto? et quid pauper, nisi ut pergat illuc ubi est vita?
8這樣看來，智慧人比愚昧人有甚麼長處呢？窮人在眾人面前知道如何行，有甚麼長處呢？
9Melius est videre quod cupias, quam desiderare quod nescias. Sed et hoc vanitas est, et præsumptio spiritus.
9眼睛所看的比心裏妄想的倒好。這也是虛空，也是捕風。
10Qui futurus est, jam vocatum est nomen ejus; et scitur quod homo sit, et non possit contra fortiorem se in judicio contendere.
10先前所有的，早已起了名，並知道何為人，他也不能與那比自己力大的相爭。
11Verba sunt plurima, multamque in disputando habentia vanitatem.]
11加增虛浮的事既多，這與人有甚麼益處呢？
no verse 12 in this text
12人一生虛度的日子，就如影兒經過，誰知道甚麼與他有益呢？誰能告訴他身後在日光之下有甚麼事呢？
