Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Then Job answered the Lord, and said:
1約伯 回答耶和華說：
2I know that thou canst do all things, and no thought is hid from thee.
2我知道，你萬事都能做； 你的旨意不能攔阻。
3Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have spoken unwisely, and things that above measure exceeded my knowledge.
3誰用無知的言語使 你的 旨意隱藏呢？ 我所說的是我不明白的； 這些事太奇妙，是我不知道的。
4Hear, and I will speak: I will ask thee, and do thou tell me.
4求你聽我，我要說話； 我問你，求你指示我。
5With the hearing of the ear, I have heard thee, but now my eye seeth thee.
5我從前風聞有你， 現在親眼看見你。
6Therefore I reprehend myself, and do penance in dust and ashes.
6因此我厭惡自己， 在塵土和爐灰中懊悔。
7And after the Lord had spoken these words to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Themanite: My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends, because you have not spoken the thing that is right before my, as my servant Job hath.
7耶和華對 約伯 說話以後，就對 提幔 人 以利法 說：「我的怒氣向你和你兩個朋友發作，因為你們議論我不如我的僕人 約伯 說的是。
8Take unto you therefore seven oxen, and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a holocaust: and my servant Job shall pray for you: his face I will accept, that folly be not imputed to you: for you have not spoken right things before me, as my servant Job hath.
8現在你們要取七隻公牛，七隻公羊，到我僕人 約伯 那裏去，為自己獻上燔祭，我的僕人 約伯 就為你們祈禱。我因悅納他，就不按你們的愚妄辦你們。你們議論我，不如我的僕人 約伯 說的是。」
9So Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Sophar the Naamathite went, and did as the Lord had spoken to them, and the Lord accepted the face of Job.
9於是 提幔 人 以利法 、 書亞 人 比勒達 、 拿瑪 人 瑣法 照着耶和華所吩咐的去行；耶和華就悅納 約伯 。
10The Lord also was turned at the penance of Job, when he prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.
10約伯 為他的朋友祈禱。耶和華就使 約伯 從苦境轉回，並且耶和華賜給他的比他從前所有的加倍。
11And all his brethren came to him, and all his sisters, and all that knew him before, and they ate bread with him in his house: and bemoaned him, and comforted him upon all the evil that God had brought upon him. And every man gave him one ewe, and one earring of fold.
11約伯 的弟兄、姊妹，和以先所認識的人都來見他，在他家裏一同吃飯；又論到耶和華所降與他的一切災禍，都為他悲傷安慰他。每人也送他一塊 銀子 和一個金環。
12And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
12這樣，耶和華後來賜福給 約伯 比先前更多。他有一萬四千羊，六千駱駝，一千對牛，一千母驢。
13And he had seven sons, and three daughters.
13他也有七個兒子，三個女兒。
14And he called the names of one Dies, and the name of the second Cassia, and the name of the third Cornustibil.
14他給長女起名叫 耶米瑪 ，次女叫 基洗亞 ，三女叫 基連‧哈樸 。
15And there were not found in all the earth women so beautiful as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
15在那全地的婦女中找不着像 約伯 的女兒那樣美貌。她們的父親使她們在弟兄中得產業。
16And Job lived after these things, a hundred and forty years, and he saw his children, and his children’s children, unto the fourth generation, and he died an old man, and full of days.
16此後， 約伯 又活了一百四十年，得見他的兒孫，直到四代。
