約伯記 16
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1約伯 回答說：
1Then Job answered:
2這樣的話我聽了許多； 你們安慰人，反叫人愁煩。
2“I have heard many things like these; miserable comforters are you all.
3虛空的言語有窮盡嗎？ 有甚麼話惹動你回答呢？
3Is there no end to your long-winded speeches? What provokes you to continue testifying?
4我也能說你們那樣的話； 你們若處在我的境遇， 我也會聯絡言語攻擊你們， 又能向你們搖頭。
4I could also speak like you if you were in my place; I could heap up words against you and shake my head at you.
5但我必用口堅固你們， 用嘴消解 你們的憂愁 。
5But I would encourage you with my mouth, and the consolation of my lips would bring relief.
6我雖說話，憂愁仍不得消解； 我雖停住不說，憂愁就離開我嗎？
6Even if I speak, my pain is not relieved, and if I hold back, how will it go away?
7但現在上帝使我困倦， 使親友遠離我，
7Surely He has now exhausted me; You have devastated all my family.
8又抓住我，作見證 攻擊我 ； 我身體的枯瘦也當面見證我的不是。
8You have bound me, and it has become a witness; my frailty rises up and testifies against me.
9主發怒撕裂我，逼迫我， 向我切齒； 我的敵人怒目看我。
9His anger has torn me and opposed me; He gnashes His teeth at me. My adversary pierces me with His eyes.
10他們向我開口， 打我的臉羞辱我， 聚會攻擊我。
10They open their mouths against me and strike my cheeks with contempt; they join together against me.
11上帝把我交給不敬虔的人， 把我扔到惡人的手中。
11God has delivered me to unjust men; He has thrown me to the clutches of the wicked.
12我素來安逸，他折斷我， 掐住我的頸項，把我摔碎， 又立我為他的箭靶子。
12I was at ease, but He shattered me; He seized me by the neck and crushed me. He has set me up as His target;
13他的弓箭手四面圍繞我； 他破裂我的肺腑，並不留情， 把我的膽傾倒在地上，
13His archers surround me. He pierces my kidneys without mercy and spills my gall on the ground.
14將我破裂又破裂， 如同勇士向我直闖。
14He breaks me with wound upon wound; He rushes me like a mighty warrior.
15我縫麻布在我皮膚上， 把我的角放在塵土中。
15I have sewn sackcloth over my skin; I have buried my horn in the dust.
16我的臉因哭泣發紫， 在我的眼皮上有死蔭。
16My face is red with weeping, and deep shadows ring my eyes;
17我的手中卻無強暴； 我的祈禱也是清潔。
17yet my hands are free of violence and my prayer is pure.
18地啊，不要遮蓋我的血！ 不要 阻擋 我的哀求！
18O earth, do not cover my blood; may my cry for help never be laid to rest.
19現今，在天有我的見證， 在上有我的中保。
19Even now my witness is in heaven, and my advocate is on high.
20我的朋友譏誚我， 我卻向上帝眼淚汪汪。
20My friends are my scoffers as my eyes pour out tears to God.
21願人得與上帝辯白， 如同人與朋友辯白一樣；
21Oh, that a man might plead with God as he pleads with his neighbor!
22因為再過幾年， 我必走那往而不返之路。
22For when only a few years are past I will go the way of no return.
