Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1But Job answered, and said:
1約伯 回答說：
2O that my sins, whereby I have deserved wrath, and the calamity that I suffer, were weighed in a balance.
2惟願我的煩惱稱一稱， 我一切的災害放在天平裏；
3As the sand of the sea this would appear heavier: therefore my words are full of sorrow:
3現今都比海沙更重， 所以我的言語急躁。
4For the arrows of the Lord are in me, the rage whereof drinketh up my spirit, and the terrors of the Lord war against me.
4因全能者的箭射入我身； 其毒，我的靈喝盡了； 上帝的驚嚇擺陣攻擊我。
5Will the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or will the ox low when he standeth before a full manger?
5野驢有草豈能叫喚？ 牛有料豈能吼叫？
6Or can an unsavoury thing be eaten, that is not seasoned with salt? or can a man taste that which when tasted bringeth death?
6物淡而無鹽豈可吃嗎？ 蛋青有甚麼滋味呢？
7The things which before my soul would not touch, now, through anguish are my meats.
7看為可厭的食物， 我心不肯挨近。
8Who will grant that my request may come: and that God may give me what I look for?
8惟願我得着所求的， 願上帝賜我所切望的；
9And that he that hath begun may destroy me, that he may let loose his hand, and cut me off?
9就是願上帝把我壓碎， 伸手將我剪除。
10And that this may be my comfort, that afflicting me with sorrow, he spare not, nor I contradict the words of the Holy One.
10我因沒有違棄那聖者的言語， 就仍以此為安慰， 在不止息的痛苦中還可踴躍。
11For what is my strength, that I can hold out? or what is my end that I should keep patience?
11我有甚麼氣力使我等候？ 我有甚麼結局使我忍耐？
12My strength is not the strength of stones, nor is my flesh of brass.
12我的氣力豈是石頭的氣力？ 我的肉身豈是銅的呢？
13Behold there is no help for me in myself, and my familiar friends also are departed from me.
13在我豈不是毫無幫助嗎？ 智慧豈不是從我心中趕出淨盡嗎？
14He that taketh away mercy from his friend, forsaketh the fear of the Lord.
14那將要灰心、離棄全能者、 不敬畏上帝的人， 他的朋友當以慈愛待他。
15My brethren have passed by me, as the torrent that passeth swiftly in the valleys.
15我的弟兄詭詐，好像溪水， 又像溪水流乾的河道。
16They that fear the hoary frost, the snow shall fall upon them.
16這河因結冰發黑， 有雪藏在其中；
17At the time when they shall be scattered they shall perish: and after it groweth hot they shall be melted out of their place.
17天氣漸暖就隨時消化， 日頭炎熱便從原處乾涸。
18The paths of their steps are entangled: they shall walk in vain, and shall perish.
18結伴的客旅 離棄大道 ， 順河偏行，到荒野之地死亡。
19Consider the paths of Thema, the ways of Saba, and wait a little while.
19提瑪 結伴的客旅瞻望； 示巴 同夥的人等候。
20They are confounded, because I have hoped: they are come also even unto me, and are covered with shame.
20他們因失了盼望就抱愧， 來到那裏便蒙羞。
21Now you are come: and now seeing my affliction you are afraid.
21現在你們正是這樣， 看見驚嚇的事便懼怕。
22Did I say: Bring to me, and give me of your substance?
22我豈說：請你們供給我， 從你們的財物中送禮物給我？
23Or deliver me from the hand of the enemy, and rescue me out of the hand of the mighty?
23豈說：拯救我脫離敵人的手嗎？ 救贖我脫離強暴人的手嗎？
24Teach me, and I will hold my peace: and if I have been ignorant in any thing, instruct me.
24請你們教導我，我便不作聲； 使我明白在何事上有錯。
25Why have you detracted the words of truth, whereas there is none of you that can reprove me?
25正直的言語力量何其大！ 但你們責備是責備甚麼呢？
26You dress up speeches only to rebuke, and you utter words to the wind.
26絕望人的講論既然如風， 你們還想要駁正言語嗎？
27You rush in upon the fatherless, and you endeavour to overthrow your friend.
27你們想為孤兒拈鬮， 以朋友當貨物。
28However finish what you have begun, give ear, and see whether I lie.
28現在請你們看看我， 我決不當面說謊。
29Answer, I beseech you, without contention: and speaking that which is just, judge ye.
29請你們轉意，不要不公； 請再轉意，我的事有理。
30And you shall not And iniquity in my tongue, neither shall folly sound in my mouth.
30我的舌上豈有不義嗎？ 我的口裏豈不辨奸惡嗎？
