Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he seemed just to himself.
1於是這三個人,因 約伯 自以為義就不再回答他。
2And Eliu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram, was angry and was moved to indignation: now he was angry against Job, because he said he was just before God.
2那時有 布西 人 蘭 族 巴拉迦 的兒子 以利戶 向 約伯 發怒;因 約伯 自以為義,不以上帝為義。
3And he was angry with his friends because they had not found a reasonable answer, but only had condemned Job.
3他又向 約伯 的三個朋友發怒;因為他們想不出回答的話來,仍以 約伯 為有罪。
4So Eliu waited while Job was speaking, because they were his elders that were speaking.
4以利戶 要與 約伯 說話,就等候他們,因為他們比自己年老。
5But when he saw that the three were not able to answer, he was exceedingly angry.
5以利戶 見這三個人口中無話回答,就怒氣發作。
6Then Eliu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said: I am younger in days, and you are more ancient; therefore hanging down my head, I was afraid to shew you my opinion.
6布西 人 巴拉迦 的兒子 以利戶 回答說: 我年輕,你們老邁; 因此我退讓,不敢向你們陳說我的意見。
7For I hoped that greater age would speak, and that a multitude of years would teach wisdom.
7我說,年老的當先說話; 壽高的當以智慧教訓人。
8But, as I see, there is a spirit in men, and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth understanding.
8但在人裏面有靈; 全能者的氣使人有聰明。
9They that are aged are not the wise men, neither do the ancients understand judgment.
9尊貴的不都有智慧; 壽高的不都能明白公平。
10Therefore I will speak: Hearken to me, I also will shew you my wisdom.
10因此我說:你們要聽我言; 我也要陳說我的意見。
11For I have waited for your words, I have given ear to your wisdom, as long as you were disputing in words.
11你們查究所要說的話; 那時我等候你們的話, 側耳聽你們的辯論,
12And as long as I thought you said some thing, I considered: but, as I see, there is none of you that can convince Job, and answer his words.
12留心聽你們; 誰知你們中間無一人折服 約伯 , 駁倒他的話。
13Lest you should say: We have found wisdom, God hath cast him down, not man.
13你們切不可說:我們尋得智慧; 上帝能勝他,人卻不能。
14He hath spoken nothing to me, and I will not answer him according to your words.
14約伯 沒有向我爭辯; 我也不用你們的話回答他。
15They were afraid, and answered no more, and they left off speaking.
15他們驚奇不再回答, 一言不發。
16Therefore because I have waited, and they have not spoken: they stood, and answered no more:
16我豈因他們不說話, 站住不再回答,仍舊等候呢?
17I also will answer my part, and will shew my knowledge.
17我也要回答我的一分話, 陳說我的意見。
18For I am full of matter to speak of, and the spirit of my bowels straiteneth me.
18因為我的言語滿懷; 我裏面的靈激動我。
19Behold, my belly is as new wine which wanteth vent, which bursteth the new vessels.
19我的胸懷如盛酒 之囊 沒有出氣之縫, 又如新皮袋快要破裂。
20I will speak and take breath a little: I will open my lips, and will answer.
20我要說話,使我舒暢; 我要開口回答。
21I will not accept the person of man, and I will not level God with man.
21我必不看人的情面, 也不奉承人。
22For I know not how long I shall continue, and whether after a while my Maker may take me away.
22我不曉得奉承; 若奉承 ,造我的主必快快除滅我。
