- The oracle concerning the beasts of the Negev Through a land of distress and anguish, From where come lioness and lion, viper and flying serpent, They carry their riches on the backs of young donkeys And their treasures on camels' humps, To a people who cannot profit them;

- Now go, write it on a tablet before them And inscribe it on a scroll, That it may serve in the time to come As a witness forever.
- For this is a rebellious people, false sons, Sons who refuse to listen To the instruction of the LORD;
- Who say to the seers, "You must not see visions"; And to the prophets, "You must not prophesy to us what is right, Speak to us pleasant words, Prophesy illusions.

- 埃及的幫助是徒然無益的.所以我稱他為坐而不動的拉哈伯。

- 他們對先見說、不要望見不吉利的事、對先知說、不要向我們講正直的話、要向我們說柔和的話、言虛幻的事。
