Obey Rulers
1谁如智慧人呢？谁知道事情的解释呢？人的智慧使他的脸发光，并使他脸上的暴气改变。
1Who is like the wise person and who knows the meaning of a matter? A person’s wisdom illuminates his face and makes his stern face brighten up.
2我劝你遵守王的命令；既指神起誓，理当如此。3不要急躁离开王的面前，不要固执行恶，因为他凡事都随自己的心意而行。4王的话本有权力，谁敢问他说「你做什么」呢？
2I say, “Keep the command of the king because of the oath before God. 3“Do not be in a hurry to leave him. Do not join in an evil matter, for he will do whatever he pleases.” 4Since the word of the king is authoritative, who will say to him, “What are you doing?”
5凡遵守命令的，必不经历祸患；智慧人的心能辨明时候和定理原文是审判；下节同。6各样事务成就都有时候和定理，因为人的苦难重压在他身上。7他不知道将来的事，因为将来如何，谁能告诉他呢？8无人有权力掌管生命，将生命留住；也无人有权力掌管死期；这场争战，无人能免；邪恶也不能救那好行邪恶的人。9这一切我都见过，也专心查考日光之下所做的一切事。有时这人管辖那人，令人受害。
5One who keeps a royal command experiences no trouble, for a wise heart knows the proper time and procedure. 6For there is a proper time and procedure for every delight, though a person’s trouble is heavy upon him. 7If no one knows what will happen, who can tell him when it will happen? 8No one has authority over the wind to restrain the wind, nor authority over the day of death; and there is no military discharge in the time of war, and evil will not save those who practice it. 9All this I have seen, and have applied my mind to every deed that has been done under the sun at a time when one person has exercised authority over another person to his detriment.
10我见恶人埋葬，归入坟墓；又见行正直事的离开圣地，在城中被人忘记。这也是虚空。11因为断定罪名不立刻施刑，所以世人满心作恶。12罪人虽然作恶百次，倒享长久的年日；然而我准知道，敬畏神的，就是在他面前敬畏的人，终久必得福乐。13恶人却不得福乐，也不得长久的年日；这年日好像影儿，因他不敬畏神。
10So then, I have seen the wicked buried, those who used to go in and out of the holy place, and they are soon forgotten in the city where they did such things. This too is futility. 11Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of mankind among them are fully given to do evil. 12Although a sinner does evil a hundred times and may lengthen his life, still I know that it will go well for those who fear God, who fear Him openly. 13But it will not go well for the evil person and he will not lengthen his days like a shadow, because he does not fear God.
14世上有一件虚空的事，就是义人所遭遇的，反照恶人所行的；又有恶人所遭遇的，反照义人所行的。我说，这也是虚空。15我就称赞快乐，原来人在日光之下，莫强如吃喝快乐；因为他在日光之下，神赐他一生的年日，要从劳碌中，时常享受所得的。
14There is futility which is done on the earth, that is, there are righteous people to whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked. On the other hand, there are evil people to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I say that this too is futility. 15So I commended pleasure, for there is nothing good for a person under the sun except to eat, drink, and be joyful, and this will stand by him in his labor throughout the days of his life which God has given him under the sun.
16我专心求智慧，要看世上所做的事。（有昼夜不睡觉不合眼的。）17我就看明神一切的作为，知道人查不出日光之下所做的事；任凭他费多少力寻查，都查不出来，就是智慧人虽想知道，也是查不出来。
16When I devoted my mind to know wisdom and to see the business which has been done on the earth (even though one should never sleep day or night), 17and I saw every work of God, I concluded that one cannot discover the work which has been done under the sun. Even though a person laboriously seeks, he will not discover; and even if the wise person claims to know, he cannot discover.
