If your hope in this world is utterly lost,
If you lose hope in this life, then neither death nor people will grieve you.
then neither death nor people will distress you.
God is the most truthful, while hopes are lies.

God is most truthful, and hopes are false;
All these wishes in the heart are just whisperings.
and all these wishes are whisperings in the heart.
The best of all is, if you’re content with whatever God does, not what people do.
