< 约伯记 26 >
Then Job answered and said:
2 无能的人蒙你何等的帮助! 膀臂无力的人蒙你何等的拯救!
How hast thou helped the weak, And strengthened the feeble arm!
3 无智慧的人蒙你何等的指教! 你向他多显大知识!
How hast thou counselled the ignorant, And revealed wisdom in fulness!
For whom hast thou uttered these words? And whose spirit spake through thee?
Before Him the shades tremble Beneath the waters and their inhabitants.
6 在 神面前,阴间显露; 灭亡也不得遮掩。 (Sheol )
The under-world is naked before him, And destruction is without covering. (Sheol )
He stretcheth out the north over empty space, And hangeth the earth upon nothing.
He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them.
He covereth the face of his throne, And spreadeth his clouds upon it.
10 在水面的周围划出界限, 直到光明黑暗的交界。
He hath drawn a circular bound upon the waters, To the confines of light and darkness.
The pillars of heaven tremble And are confounded at his rebuke.
By his power he stilleth the sea, Yea, by his wisdom he smiteth its pride.
By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; His hand hath formed the fleeing Serpent.
14 看哪,这不过是 神工作的些微; 我们所听于他的是何等细微的声音! 他大能的雷声谁能明透呢?
Lo! these are but the borders of his works; How faint the whisper we have heard of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?
