Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. And this man was blameless and upright, fearing God and shunning evil.
1乌斯 地有一个人名叫 约伯 ；那人完全正直，敬畏 神，远离恶事。
2He had seven sons and three daughters,
2他生了七个儿子，三个女儿。
3and he owned 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, 500 female donkeys, and a very large number of servants. Job was the greatest man of all the people of the East.
3他的家产有七千羊，三千骆驼，五百对牛，五百母驴，并有许多仆婢。这人在东方人中就为至大。
4Job’s sons would take turns holding feasts in their homes, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
4他的儿子按着日子各在自己家里设摆筵宴，就打发人去，请了他们的三个姊妹来，与他们一同吃喝。
5And when the days of feasting were over, Job would send for his children to purify them, rising early in the morning to offer burnt offerings for all of them. For Job thought, “Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.” This was Job’s regular practice.
5筵宴的日子过了， 约伯 打发人去叫他们自洁。他清早起来，按着他们众人的数目献燔祭；因为他说：「恐怕我儿子犯了罪，心中弃掉 神。」 约伯 常常这样行。
6One day the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them.
6有一天， 神的众子来侍立在耶和华面前，撒但也来在其中。
7“Where have you come from?” said the LORD to Satan. “From roaming through the earth,” he replied, “and walking back and forth in it.”
7耶和华问撒但说：「你从哪里来？」撒但回答说：「我从地上走来走去，往返而来。」
8Then the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one on earth like him, a man who is blameless and upright, who fears God and shuns evil.”
8耶和华问撒但说：「你曾用心察看我的仆人 约伯 没有？地上再没有人像他完全正直，敬畏 神，远离恶事。」
9Satan answered the LORD, “Does Job fear God for nothing?
9撒但回答耶和华说：「 约伯 敬畏 神，岂是无故呢？
10Have You not placed a hedge on every side around him and his household and all that he owns? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.
10你岂不是四面圈上篱笆围护他和他的家，并他一切所有的吗？他手所做的都蒙你赐福；他的家产也在地上增多。
11But stretch out Your hand and strike all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face.”
11你且伸手毁他一切所有的；他必当面弃掉你。」
12“Very well,” said the LORD to Satan. “Everything he has is in your hands, but you must not lay a hand on the man himself.” Then Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.
12耶和华对撒但说：「凡他所有的都在你手中；只是不可伸手加害于他。」于是撒但从耶和华面前退去。
13One day, while Job’s sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house,
13有一天， 约伯 的儿女正在他们长兄的家里吃饭喝酒，
14a messenger came and reported to Job: “While the oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing nearby,
14有报信的来见 约伯 ，说：「牛正耕地，驴在旁边吃草，
15the Sabeans swooped down and took them away. They put the servants to the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you!”
15示巴 人忽然闯来，把牲畜掳去，并用刀杀了仆人；惟有我一人逃脱，来报信给你。」
16While he was still speaking, another messenger came and reported: “The fire of God fell from heaven. It burned and consumed the sheep and the servants, and I alone have escaped to tell you!”
16他还说话的时候，又有人来说：「 神从天上降下火来，将群羊和仆人都烧灭了；惟有我一人逃脱，来报信给你。」
17While he was still speaking, another messenger came and reported: “The Chaldeans formed three bands, raided the camels, and took them away. They put the servants to the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you!”
17他还说话的时候，又有人来说：「 迦勒底 人分作三队忽然闯来，把骆驼掳去，并用刀杀了仆人；惟有我一人逃脱，来报信给你。」
18While he was still speaking, another messenger came and reported: “Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house,
18他还说话的时候，又有人来说：「你的儿女正在他们长兄的家里吃饭喝酒，
19when suddenly a mighty wind swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It collapsed on the young people and they are dead, and I alone have escaped to tell you!”
19不料，有狂风从旷野刮来，击打房屋的四角，房屋倒塌在少年人身上，他们就都死了；惟有我一人逃脱，来报信给你。」
20Then Job stood up, tore his robe, and shaved his head. He fell to the ground and worshiped,
20约伯 便起来，撕裂外袍，剃了头，伏在地上下拜，
21saying: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will return. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the name of the LORD.”
21说：「我赤身出于母胎，也必赤身归回；赏赐的是耶和华，收取的也是耶和华。耶和华的名是应当称颂的。」
22In all this, Job did not sin or charge God with wrongdoing.
22在这一切的事上 约伯 并不犯罪，也不以 神为愚妄。
