# 伯-Job 9 ## 伯9:1 约伯回答说: Job 9:1 Then Job answered and said: ## 伯9:2 “我真知道是这样。但人在神面前怎能成为义呢? Job 9:2 Truly I know that it is so: But how can a man be in the right before God? ## 伯9:3 若愿意与他争辩,千中之一也不能回答。 Job 9:3 “If one wished to contend with him, one could not answer him once in a thousand times.” ## 伯9:4 他心里有智慧,且大有能力。谁向神刚硬而得亨通呢? Job 9:4 “He is wise in heart and mighty in strength —who has hardened himself against him, and succeeded?—” ## 伯9:5 他发怒,把山翻倒挪移,山并不知觉; Job 9:5 “he who removes mountains, and they know it not, when he overturns them in his anger,” ## 伯9:6 他使地震动,离其本位,地的柱子就摇撼。 Job 9:6 “who shakes the earth out of its place, and its pillars tremble;” ## 伯9:7 他吩咐日头不出来,就不出来;又封闭众星。 Job 9:7 “who commands the sun, and it does not rise; who seals up the stars;” ## 伯9:8 他独自铺张苍天,步行在海浪之上。 Job 9:8 who alone stretched out the heavens and trampled the waves of the sea; ## 伯9:9 他造北斗、参星、昴星,并南方的密宫。 Job 9:9 “who made the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the chambers of the south;” ## 伯9:10 他行大事不可测度,行奇事不可胜数。 Job 9:10 “who does great things beyond searching out, and marvelous things beyond number.” ## 伯9:11 “他从我旁边经过,我却不看见;他在我面前行走,我倒不知觉。 Job 9:11 “Behold, he passes by me, and I see him not; he moves on, but I do not perceive him.” ## 伯9:12 他夺取,谁能阻挡?谁敢问他,你作什么? Job 9:12 “Behold, he snatches away; who can turn him back? Who will say to him, ‘What are you doing?’” ## 伯9:13 神必不收回他的怒气;扶助拉哈伯的,屈身在他以下。 Job 9:13 God will not turn back his anger; beneath him bowed the helpers of Rahab. ## 伯9:14 既是这样,我怎敢回答他,怎敢选择言语与他辩论呢? Job 9:14 “How then can I answer him, choosing my words with him?” ## 伯9:15 我虽有义,也不回答他,只要向那审判我的恳求。 Job 9:15 “Though I am in the right, I cannot answer him; I must appeal for mercy to my accuser.” ## 伯9:16 我若呼吁,他应允我;我仍不信他真听我的声音。 Job 9:16 “If I summoned him and he answered me, I would not believe that he was listening to my voice.” ## 伯9:17 他用暴风折断我,无故地加增我的损伤。 Job 9:17 For he crushes me with a tempest and multiplies my wounds without cause; ## 伯9:18 我就是喘一口气,他都不容,倒使我满心苦恼。 Job 9:18 “he will not let me get my breath, but fills me with bitterness.” ## 伯9:19 若论力量,他真有能力;若论审判,他说谁能将我传来呢? Job 9:19 “If it is a contest of strength, behold, he is mighty! If it is a matter of justice, who can summon him?” ## 伯9:20 我虽有义,自己的口要定我为有罪;我虽完全,我口必显我为弯曲。 Job 9:20 “Though I am in the right, my own mouth would condemn me; though I am blameless, he would prove me perverse.” ## 伯9:21 我本完全,不顾自己;我厌恶我的性命。 Job 9:21 I am blameless; I regard not myself; I loathe my life. ## 伯9:22 善恶无分,都是一样;所以我说:完全人和恶人,他都灭绝。 Job 9:22 “It is all one; therefore I say, He destroys both the blameless and the wicked.” ## 伯9:23 若忽然遭杀害之祸,他必戏笑无辜的人遇难。 Job 9:23 “When disaster brings sudden death, he mocks at the calamity of the innocent.” ## 伯9:24 世界交在恶人手中;蒙蔽世界审判官的脸,若不是他,是谁呢? Job 9:24 “The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; he covers the faces of its judges— if it is not he, who then is it?” ## 伯9:25 “我的日子比跑信的更快,急速过去,不见福乐。 Job 9:25 My days are swifter than a runner; they flee away; they see no good. ## 伯9:26 我的日子过去如快船,如急落抓食的鹰。 Job 9:26 “They go by like skiffs of reed, like an eagle swooping on the prey.” ## 伯9:27 我若说,我要忘记我的哀情,除去我的愁容,心中畅快。 Job 9:27 “If I say, ‘I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face, and be of good cheer,’” ## 伯9:28 我因愁苦而惧怕,知道你必不以我为无辜。 Job 9:28 “I become afraid of all my suffering, for I know you will not hold me innocent.” ## 伯9:29 我必被你定为有罪,我何必徒然劳苦呢? Job 9:29 I shall be condemned; why then do I labor in vain? ## 伯9:30 我若用雪水洗身,用碱洁净我的手, Job 9:30 “If I wash myself with snow and cleanse my hands with lye,” ## 伯9:31 你还要扔我在坑里,我的衣服都憎恶我。 Job 9:31 “yet you will plunge me into a pit, and my own clothes will abhor me.” ## 伯9:32 他本不象我是人,使我可以回答他,又使我们可以同听审判。 Job 9:32 “For he is not a man, as I am, that I might answer him, that we should come to trial together.” ## 伯9:33 我们中间没有听讼的人,可以向我们两造按手。 Job 9:33 “There is no arbiter between us, who might lay his hand on us both.” ## 伯9:34 愿他把杖离开我,不使惊惶威吓我; Job 9:34 “Let him take his rod away from me, and let not dread of him terrify me.” ## 伯9:35 我就说话,也不惧怕他,现在我却不是那样。” Job 9:35 “Then I would speak without fear of him, for I am not so in myself.”
