约伯记 14
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1人为妇人所生， 日子短少，多有患难；
1“Man, who is born of woman, is short of days and full of trouble.
2出来如花，又被割下， 飞去如影，不能存留。
2Like a flower, he comes forth, then withers away; like a fleeting shadow, he does not endure.
3这样的人你岂睁眼看他吗？ 又叫我来受审吗？
3Do You open Your eyes to one like this? Will You bring him into judgment before You?
4谁能使洁净之物出于污秽之中呢？ 无论谁也不能！
4Who can bring out clean from unclean? No one!
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，
5Since his days are determined and the number of his months is with You, and since You have set limits that he cannot exceed,
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。
6look away from him and let him rest, so he can enjoy his day as a hired hand.
7树若被砍下， 还可指望发芽， 嫩枝生长不息；
7For there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its tender shoots will not fail.
8其根虽然衰老在地里， 干也死在土中，
8If its roots grow old in the ground and its stump dies in the soil,
9及至得了水气，还要发芽， 又长枝条，像新栽的树一样。
9at the scent of water it will bud and put forth twigs like a sapling.
10但人死亡而消灭； 他气绝，竟在何处呢？
10But a man dies and is laid low; he breathes his last, and where is he?
11海中的水绝尽， 江河消散干涸。
11As water disappears from the sea and a river becomes parched and dry,
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。
12so a man lies down and does not rise. Until the heavens are no more, he will not be awakened or roused from sleep.
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。
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!
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。
14When a man dies, will he live again? All the days of my hard service I will wait, until my renewal comes.
15你呼叫，我便回答； 你手所做的，你必羡慕。
15You will call, and I will answer; You will desire the work of Your hands.
16但如今你数点我的脚步， 岂不窥察我的罪过吗？
16For then You would count my steps, but would not keep track of my sin.
17我的过犯被你封在囊中， 也缝严了我的罪孽。
17My transgression would be sealed in a bag, and You would cover over my iniquity.
18山崩变为无有； 磐石挪开原处。
18But as a mountain erodes and crumbles and a rock is dislodged from its place,
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。
19as water wears away the stones and torrents wash away the soil, so You destroy a man’s hope.
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。
20You forever overpower him, and he passes on; You change his countenance and send him away.
21他儿子得尊荣，他也不知道， 降为卑，他也不觉得。
21If his sons receive honor, he does not know it; if they are brought low, he is unaware.
22但知身上疼痛， 心中悲哀。
22He feels only the pain of his own body and mourns only for himself.”
