Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Then the Lord answered Job out of a whirlwind, and said:
1那時，耶和華從旋風中回答 約伯 說：
2Who is this that wrappeth up sentences in unskillful words?
2誰用無知的言語使 我的 旨意暗昧不明？
3Gird up thy loins like a man: I will ask thee, and answer thou me.
3你要如勇士束腰； 我問你，你可以指示我。
4Where wast thou when I laid up the foundations of the earth? tell me if thou hast understanding.
4我立大地根基的時候，你在哪裏呢？ 你若有聰明，只管說吧！
5Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
5你若曉得 就說 ，是誰定地的尺度？ 是誰把準繩拉在其上？
6Upon what are its bases grounded? or who laid the corner stone thereof,
6地的根基安置在何處？ 地的角石是誰安放的？
7When the morning stars praised me together, and all the sons of God made a joyful melody?
7那時，晨星一同歌唱； 上帝的眾子也都歡呼。
8Who shut up the sea with doors, when it broke forth as issuing out of the womb:
8海水衝出，如出胎胞， 那時誰將它關閉呢？
9When I made a cloud the garment thereof, and wrapped it in a mist as in swaddling bands?
9是我用雲彩當海的衣服， 用幽暗當包裹它的布，
10I set my bounds around it, and made it bars and doors:
10為它定界限， 又安門和閂，
11And I said: Hitherto thou shalt come, and shalt go no further, and here thou shalt break thy swelling waves.
11說：你只可到這裏，不可越過； 你狂傲的浪要到此止住。
12Didst thou since thy birth command the morning, and shew the dawning of the day its place?
12你自生以來，曾命定晨光， 使清晨的日光知道本位，
13And didst thou hold the extremities of the earth shaking them, and hast thou shaken the ungodly out of it?
13叫這光普照地的四極， 將惡人從其中驅逐出來嗎？
14The seal shall be restored as clay, and shall stand as a garment:
14因 這光 ，地面改變如泥上印印， 萬物 出現如衣服一樣。
15From the wicked their light shall be taken away, and the high arm shall be broken.
15亮光不照惡人； 強橫的膀臂也必折斷。
16Hast thou entered into the depths of the sea, and walked in the lowest parts of the deep?
16你曾進到海源， 或在深淵的隱密處行走嗎？
17Have the gates of death been opened to thee, and hast thou seen the darksome doors?
17死亡的門曾向你顯露嗎？ 死蔭的門你曾見過嗎？
18Hast thou considered the breadth of the earth? tell me, if thou knowest all things?
18地的廣大你能明透嗎？ 你若全知道，只管說吧！
19Where is the way where light dwelleth, and where is the place of darkness:
19光明的居所從何而至？ 黑暗的本位在於何處？
20That thou mayst bring every thing to its own bounds, and understand the paths of the house thereof.
20你能帶到本境， 能看明其室之路嗎？
21Didst thou know then that thou shouldst be born? and didst thou know the number of thy days?
21你總知道， 因為你早已生在世上， 你日子的數目也多。
22Hast thou entered into the storehouses of the snow, or has thou beheld the treasures of the hail:
22你曾進入雪庫， 或見過雹倉嗎？
23Which I have prepared for the time of the enemy, against the day of battle and war?
23這雪雹乃是我為降災， 並打仗和爭戰的日子所預備的。
24By what way is the light spread, and heat divided upon the earth?
24光亮從何路分開？ 東風從何路分散遍地？
25Who gave a course to violent showers, or a way for noisy thunder:
25誰為雨水分道？ 誰為雷電開路？
26That it should rain on the earth without man in the wilderness, where no mortal dwelleth:
26使雨降在無人之地、 無人居住的曠野？
27That it should fill the desert and desolate land, and should bring forth green grass?
27使荒廢淒涼 之地 得以豐足， 青草得以發生？
28Who is the father of rain? or who begot the drops of dew?
28雨有父嗎？ 露水珠是誰生的呢？
29Out of whose womb came the ice; and the frost from heaven who hath gendered it?
29冰出於誰的胎？ 天上的霜是誰生的呢？
30The waters are hardened like a stone, and the surface of the deep is congealed.
30諸水堅硬如石頭； 深淵之面凝結成冰。
31Shalt thou be able to join together the shining stars the Pleiades, or canst thou stop the turning about of Arcturus?
31你能繫住昴星的結嗎？ 能解開參星的帶嗎？
32Canst thou bring forth the day star in its time, and make the evening star to rise upon the children of the earth?
32你能按時領出十二宮嗎？ 能引導北斗和隨它的眾星嗎？
33Dost thou know the order of heaven, and canst thou set down the reason thereof on the earth?
33你知道天的定例嗎？ 能使地歸在天的權下嗎？
34Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that an abundance of waters may cover thee?
34你能向雲彩揚起聲來， 使傾盆的雨遮蓋你嗎？
35Canst thou send lightnings, and will they go, and will they return and say to thee: Here we are?
35你能發出閃電，叫它行去， 使它對你說：我們在這裏？
36Who hath put wisdom in the heart of man? or who gave the cock understanding?
36誰將智慧放在懷中？ 誰將聰明賜於心內？
37Who can declare the order of the heavens, or who can make the harmony of heaven to sleep?
37誰能用智慧數算雲彩呢？ 塵土聚集成團，土塊緊緊結連； 那時，誰能傾倒天上的瓶呢？
38When was the dust poured on the earth, and the clods fastened together?
