Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied:
1提幔 人 以利法 回答說：
2“Can a man be of use to God? Can even a wise man benefit Him?
2人豈能使上帝有益呢？ 智慧人但能有益於己。
3Does it delight the Almighty that you are righteous? Does He profit if your ways are blameless?
3你為人公義，豈叫全能者喜悅呢？ 你行為完全，豈能使他得利呢？
4Is it for your reverence that He rebukes you and enters into judgment against you?
4豈是因你敬畏他 就責備你、審判你嗎？
5Is not your wickedness great? Are not your iniquities endless?
5你的罪惡豈不是大嗎？ 你的罪孽也沒有窮盡；
6For you needlessly demanded security from your brothers and deprived the naked of their clothing.
6因你無故強取弟兄的物為當頭， 剝去貧寒人的衣服。
7You gave no water to the weary and withheld food from the famished,
7困乏的人，你沒有給他水喝； 飢餓的人，你沒有給他食物。
8while the land belonged to a mighty man, and a man of honor lived on it.
8有能力的人就得地土； 尊貴的人也住在其中。
9You sent widows away empty-handed, and the strength of the fatherless was crushed.
9你打發寡婦空手回去， 折斷孤兒的膀臂。
10Therefore snares surround you, and sudden peril terrifies you;
10因此，有網羅環繞你， 有恐懼忽然使你驚惶；
11it is so dark you cannot see, and a flood of water covers you.
11或有黑暗蒙蔽你， 並有洪水淹沒你。
12Is not God as high as the heavens? Look at the highest stars, how lofty they are!
12上帝豈不是在高天嗎？ 你看星宿何其高呢！
13Yet you say: ‘What does God know? Does He judge through thick darkness?
13你說：上帝知道甚麼？ 他豈能看透幽暗施行審判呢？
14Thick clouds veil Him so He does not see us as He traverses the vault of heaven.’
14密雲將他遮蓋，使他不能看見； 他周遊穹蒼。
15Will you stay on the ancient path that wicked men have trod?
15你要依從上古的道嗎？ 這道是惡人所行的。
16They were snatched away before their time, and their foundations were swept away by a flood.
16他們未到死期，忽然除滅； 根基毀壞，好像被江河沖去。
17They said to God, ‘Depart from us. What can the Almighty do to us?’
17他們向上帝說：離開我們吧！ 又 說 ：全能者能把我們怎麼樣呢？
18But it was He who filled their houses with good things; so I stay far from the counsel of the wicked.
18哪知上帝以美物充滿他們的房屋； 但惡人所謀定的離我好遠。
19The righteous see it and are glad; the innocent mock them:
19義人看見他們的 結局 就歡喜； 無辜的人嗤笑他們，
20‘Surely our foes are destroyed, and fire has consumed their excess.’
20說：那起來攻擊我們的果然被剪除， 其餘的都被火燒滅。
21Reconcile now and be at peace with Him; thereby good will come to you.
21你要認識上帝，就得平安； 福氣也必臨到你。
22Receive instruction from His mouth, and lay up His words in your heart.
22你當領受他口中的教訓， 將他的言語存在心裏。
23If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored. If you remove injustice from your tents
23你若歸向全能者，從你帳棚中遠除不義， 就必得建立。
24and consign your gold to the dust and the gold of Ophir to the stones of the ravines,
24要將 你的 珍寶丟在塵土裏， 將 俄斐 的 黃金 丟在溪河石頭之間；
25then the Almighty will be your gold and the finest silver for you.
25全能者就必為你的珍寶， 作你的寶銀。
26Surely then you will delight in the Almighty and lift up your face to God.
26你就要以全能者為喜樂， 向上帝仰起臉來。
27You will pray to Him, and He will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows.
27你要禱告他，他就聽你； 你也要還你的願。
28Your decisions will be carried out, and light will shine on your ways.
28你定意要做何事，必然給你成就； 亮光也必照耀你的路。
29When men are brought low and you say, ‘Lift them up!’ then He will save the lowly.
29人使 你 降卑，你仍可說： 必得 高升； 謙卑的人，上帝必然拯救。
30He will deliver even one who is not innocent, rescuing him through the cleanness of your hands.”
30人非無辜，上帝且要搭救他； 他因你手中清潔，必蒙拯救。
