Job 14

Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1“Man, who is born of woman, is short of days and full of trouble.
1人为妇人所生, 日子短少,多有患难;
2Like a flower, he comes forth, then withers away; like a fleeting shadow, he does not endure.
2出来如花,又被割下, 飞去如影,不能存留。
3Do You open Your eyes to one like this? Will You bring him into judgment before You?
3这样的人你岂睁眼看他吗? 又叫我来受审吗?
4Who can bring out clean from unclean? No one!
4谁能使洁净之物出于污秽之中呢? 无论谁也不能!
5Since his days are determined and the number of his months is with You, and since You have set limits that he cannot exceed,
5人的日子既然限定, 他的月数在你那里, 你也派定他的界限,使他不能越过,
6look away from him and let him rest, so he can enjoy his day as a hired hand.
6便求你转眼不看他,使他得歇息, 直等他像雇工人完毕他的日子。
7For there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its tender shoots will not fail.
7树若被砍下, 还可指望发芽, 嫩枝生长不息;
8If its roots grow old in the ground and its stump dies in the soil,
8其根虽然衰老在地里, 干也死在土中,
9at the scent of water it will bud and put forth twigs like a sapling.
9及至得了水气,还要发芽, 又长枝条,像新栽的树一样。
10But a man dies and is laid low; he breathes his last, and where is he?
10但人死亡而消灭; 他气绝,竟在何处呢?
11As water disappears from the sea and a river becomes parched and dry,
11海中的水绝尽, 江河消散干涸。
12so a man lies down and does not rise. Until the heavens are no more, he will not be awakened or roused from sleep.
12人也是如此,躺下不再起来, 等到天没有了,仍不得复醒, 也不得从睡中唤醒。
13If only You would hide me in Sheol and conceal me until Your anger has passed! If only You would appoint a time for me and then remember me!
13惟愿你把我藏在阴间, 存于隐密处,等你的忿怒过去; 愿你为我定了日期,记念我。
14When a man dies, will he live again? All the days of my hard service I will wait, until my renewal comes.
14人若死了岂能 再 活呢? 我只要在我一切争战的日子, 等我被释放的时候来到。
15You will call, and I will answer; You will desire the work of Your hands.
15你呼叫,我便回答; 你手所做的,你必羡慕。
16For then You would count my steps, but would not keep track of my sin.
16但如今你数点我的脚步, 岂不窥察我的罪过吗?
17My transgression would be sealed in a bag, and You would cover over my iniquity.
17我的过犯被你封在囊中, 也缝严了我的罪孽。
18But as a mountain erodes and crumbles and a rock is dislodged from its place,
18山崩变为无有; 磐石挪开原处。
19as water wears away the stones and torrents wash away the soil, so You destroy a man’s hope.
19水流消磨石头, 所流溢的洗去地上的尘土; 你也照样灭绝人的指望。
20You forever overpower him, and he passes on; You change his countenance and send him away.
20你攻击人常常得胜,使他去世; 你改变他的容貌,叫他往而不回。
21If his sons receive honor, he does not know it; if they are brought low, he is unaware.
21他儿子得尊荣,他也不知道, 降为卑,他也不觉得。
22He feels only the pain of his own body and mourns only for himself.”
22但知身上疼痛, 心中悲哀。
