And I do not know the way to where they shall lead us—whether it be slippery, or rugged, or dark, or full of thorns and briars, whether it be the depths of the sea or the depths of Sheol.
20:5
ወእለሂ፡ ይወስዱነ፡ ኢነአምሮሙ፡ ወኢነሰምዕ፡ ነገሮሙ።
那些引帶我們的,我們不認識他們,也聽不懂他們的話。
And those who lead us, we do not know them, and we do not hear their speech.
20:6
ወኢንሬኢ፡ ገጾሙ፡ እስመ፡ ጽልመት፡ እሙንቱ፡ ወውስተ፡ ጽልመት፡ ይመርሁነ።
我們也看不見他們的臉面,因為他們是黑暗,又把我們引到黑暗中去。
And we do not see their faces, for they are darkness, and into darkness they lead us.
Even as David the prophet said: When my spirit is faint within me, You, O Lord, know my path. In the way wherein I walked they hid a snare for me; and I turned to my right hand and looked, and there was no man that knew me, and I had no place to flee.
And he said this because he knew that the demons mock him and lead him to a way he does not know, and he turns to the right and to the left, and finds none who knows him.
20:9
ወሊቱኒ፡ አልቦ፡ ዘየአምር፡ አላ፡ ባሕቲቱ፡ ማዕከለ፡ መላእክተ፡ ጽልመት።
對他來說,也沒有認識他的人,惟有他自己,孤單地在黑暗的使者中間。
And for him too there is none who knows him, but only he, alone in the midst of the angels of darkness.
And the spiritual angels of light, who are sent to the good, that they may receive the souls of the righteous and bear them to the court of the light of life.
And those who are sent, the angels of darkness and the demons, to the souls of the wicked, that they may receive them and bear them into the everlasting judgment which is prepared for them, that they may be requited according to their deeds which they did.
Woe to the souls of the wicked, whom they bear into destruction, where there is no rest or deliverance, no escape and no exit for ever, from the tribulation that has overtaken them.
Woe to the wicked, for they walked in the way of Cain, and in the error of the reward of Balaam they were destroyed and erred in what they did; for in taking bribes and rewards they devise schemes, that they may seize the goods of another by injustice, which were not their own goods.
20:14
እሙንቱኪ፡ ይትፈደዩ፡ በከመ፡ ምግባሮሙ፡ ዘገብሩ፡ በኵነኔ፡ ነደ፡ እሳት።
這些人必照他們所行的受報應,在那火焰的審判中。
These shall be requited according to their deeds which they did, in the judgment of the flame of fire.
