约伯记 40
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
World English Bible
1耶和华又对 约伯 说：
1Moreover the LORD answered Job,
2强辩的岂可与全能者争论吗？ 与 神辩驳的可以回答这些吧！
2“Shall he who argues contend with the Almighty? He who argues with God, let him answer it.”
3于是， 约伯 回答耶和华说：
3Then Job answered the LORD,
4我是卑贱的！我用什么回答你呢？ 只好用手捂口。
4“Behold, I am of small account. What will I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth.
5我说了一次，再不回答； 说了两次，就不再说。
5I have spoken once, and I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.”
6于是，耶和华从旋风中回答 约伯 说：
6Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind:
7你要如勇士束腰； 我问你，你可以指示我。
7“Now brace yourself like a man. I will question you, and you will answer me.
8你岂可废弃我所拟定的？ 岂可定我有罪，好显自己为义吗？
8Will you even annul my judgment? Will you condemn me, that you may be justified?
9你有 神那样的膀臂吗？ 你能像他发雷声吗？
9Or do you have an arm like God? Can you thunder with a voice like him?
10你要以荣耀庄严为妆饰， 以尊荣威严为衣服；
10“Now deck yourself with excellency and dignity. Array yourself with honor and majesty.
11要发出你满溢的怒气， 见一切骄傲的人，使他降卑；
11Pour out the fury of your anger. Look at everyone who is proud, and bring him low.
12见一切骄傲的人，将他制伏， 把恶人践踏在本处；
12Look at everyone who is proud, and humble him. Crush the wicked in their place.
13将他们一同隐藏在尘土中， 把他们的脸蒙蔽在隐密处；
13Hide them in the dust together. Bind their faces in the hidden place.
14我就认你右手能以救自己。
14Then I will also admit to you that your own right hand can save you.
15你且观看河马； 我造你也造它。 它吃草与牛一样；
15“See now behemoth, which I made as well as you. He eats grass as an ox.
16它的气力在腰间， 能力在肚腹的筋上。
16Look now, his strength is in his thighs. His force is in the muscles of his belly.
17它摇动尾巴如香柏树； 它大腿的筋互相联络。
17He moves his tail like a cedar. The sinews of his thighs are knit together.
18它的骨头 好像 铜管； 它的肢体仿佛铁棍。
18His bones are like tubes of bronze. His limbs are like bars of iron.
19它在 神所造的物中为首； 创造它的给它刀剑。
19He is the chief of the ways of God. He who made him gives him his sword.
20诸山给它出食物， 也是百兽游玩之处。
20Surely the mountains produce food for him, where all the animals of the field play.
21它伏在莲叶之下， 卧在芦苇隐密处和水洼子里。
21He lies under the lotus trees, in the covert of the reed, and the marsh.
22莲叶的阴凉遮蔽它； 溪旁的柳树环绕它。
22The lotuses cover him with their shade. The willows of the brook surround him.
23河水泛滥，它不发战； 就是 约旦河 的水涨到它口边，也是安然。
23Behold, if a river overflows, he doesn’t tremble. He is confident, though the Jordan swells even to his mouth.
24在它防备的时候，谁能捉拿它？ 谁能牢笼它穿它的鼻子呢？
24Shall any take him when he is on the watch, or pierce through his nose with a snare?
