World English Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Moreover Elihu answered,
1以利戶 又說：
2“Hear my words, you wise men. Give ear to me, you who have knowledge.
2你們智慧人要聽我的話； 有知識的人要留心聽我說。
3For the ear tries words, as the palate tastes food.
3因為耳朵試驗話語， 好像上膛嘗食物。
4Let us choose for us that which is right. Let us know among ourselves what is good.
4我們當選擇何為是， 彼此知道何為善。
5For Job has said, ‘I am righteous, God has taken away my right.
5約伯 曾說：我是公義， 上帝奪去我的理；
6Notwithstanding my right I am considered a liar. My wound is incurable, though I am without disobedience.’
6我雖有理，還 算為 說謊言的； 我雖無過，受的傷還不能醫治。
7What man is like Job, who drinks scorn like water,
7誰像 約伯 ， 喝譏誚如同喝水呢？
8who goes in company with the workers of iniquity, and walks with wicked men?
8他與作孽的結伴， 和惡人同行。
9For he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.’
9他說：人以上帝為樂， 總是無益。
10“Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
10所以，你們明理的人要聽我的話。 上帝斷不致行惡； 全能者斷不致作孽。
11For the work of a man he will give to him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.
11他必按人所做的報應人， 使各人照所行的得報。
12Yes surely, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice.
12上帝必不作惡； 全能者也不偏離公平。
13Who put him in charge of the earth? Or who has appointed him over the whole world?
13誰派他治理地， 安定全世界呢？
14If he set his heart on himself, if he gathered to himself his spirit and his breath,
14他若專心為己， 將靈和氣收歸自己，
15all flesh would perish together, and man would turn again to dust.
15凡有血氣的就必一同死亡； 世人必仍歸塵土。
16“If now you have understanding, hear this. Listen to the voice of my words.
16你若明理，就當聽我的話， 留心聽我言語的聲音。
17Should even one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn him who is righteous and mighty,
17難道恨惡公平的可以掌權嗎？ 那有公義的、有大能的，豈可定他有罪嗎？
18who says to a king, ‘Vile!’ or to nobles, ‘Wicked!’?
18他對君王說： 你是 鄙陋的； 對貴臣說： 你是 邪惡的。
19He doesn’t respect the persons of princes, nor respect the rich more than the poor, for they all are the work of his hands.
19他待王子不徇情面， 也不看重富足的過於貧窮的， 因為都是他手所造。
20In a moment they die, even at midnight. The people are shaken and pass away. The mighty are taken away without a hand.
20在轉眼之間，半夜之中， 他們就死亡。 百姓被震動而去世； 有權力的被奪去非借人手。
21“For his eyes are on the ways of a man. He sees all his goings.
21上帝注目觀看人的道路， 看明人的腳步。
22There is no darkness, nor thick gloom, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
22沒有黑暗、陰翳能給作孽的藏身。
23For he doesn’t need to consider a man further, that he should go before God in judgment.
23上帝審判人，不必使人到他面前再三鑒察。
24He breaks mighty men in pieces in ways past finding out, and sets others in their place.
24他用難測之法打破有能力的人， 設立別人代替他們。
25Therefore he takes knowledge of their works. He overturns them in the night, so that they are destroyed.
25他原知道他們的行為， 使他們在夜間傾倒滅亡。
26He strikes them as wicked men in the open sight of others;
26他在眾人眼前擊打他們， 如同擊打惡人一樣。
27because they turned away from following him, and wouldn’t pay attention to any of his ways,
27因為他們偏行不跟從他， 也不留心他的道，
28so that they caused the cry of the poor to come to him. He heard the cry of the afflicted.
28甚至使貧窮人的哀聲達到他那裏； 他也聽了困苦人的哀聲。
29When he gives quietness, who then can condemn? When he hides his face, who then can see him? He is over a nation or a man alike,
29他使人安靜，誰能擾亂呢？ 他掩面，誰能見他呢？ 無論待一國或一人都是如此－
30that the godless man may not reign, that there be no one to ensnare the people.
30使不虔敬的人不得作王， 免得有人牢籠百姓。
31“For has any said to God, ‘I am guilty, but I will not offend any more.
31有誰對上帝說： 我受了 責罰 ，不再犯罪；
32Teach me that which I don’t see. If I have done iniquity, I will do it no more’?
32我所看不明的，求你指教我； 我若作了孽，必不再作？
33Shall his recompense be as you desire, that you refuse it? For you must choose, and not I. Therefore speak what you know.
33他施行報應， 豈要隨你的心願、叫你推辭不受嗎？ 選定的是你，不是我。 你所知道的只管說吧！
34Men of understanding will tell me, yes, every wise man who hears me:
34明理的人和聽我話的智慧人必對我說：
35‘Job speaks without knowledge. His words are without wisdom.’
35約伯 說話沒有知識， 言語中毫無智慧。
36I wish that Job were tried to the end, because of his answering like wicked men.
36願 約伯 被試驗到底， 因他回答像惡人一樣。
37For he adds rebellion to his sin. He claps his hands among us, and multiplies his words against God.”
37他在罪上又加悖逆； 在我們中間拍手， 用許多言語輕慢上帝。
