< 約伯記 26 >

1 約伯回答說:
And Job answered and said,
2 無能的人蒙你何等的幫助! 膀臂無力的人蒙你何等的拯救!
How hast thou helped the powerless; how saved the arm that is without strength!
3 無智慧的人蒙你何等的指教! 你向他多顯大知識!
How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and abundantly declared the thing as it is!
4 你向誰發出言語來? 誰的靈從你而出?
For whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 在大水和水族以下的陰魂戰兢。
The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof;
6 在上帝面前,陰間顯露; 滅亡也不得遮掩。 (Sheol h7585)
Sheol is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)
7 上帝將北極鋪在空中, 將大地懸在虛空;
He stretcheth out the north over empty space, he hangeth the earth upon nothing;
8 將水包在密雲中, 雲卻不破裂;
He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 遮蔽他的寶座, 將雲鋪在其上;
He covereth the face of his throne, he spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10 在水面的周圍劃出界限, 直到光明黑暗的交界。
He hath traced a fixed circle over the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
11 天的柱子因他的斥責震動驚奇。
The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
12 他以能力攪動大海; 他藉知識打傷拉哈伯,
He stirreth up the sea by his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
13 藉他的靈使天有妝飾; 他的手刺殺快蛇。
By his Spirit the heavens are adorned; his hand hath formed the fleeing serpent.
14 看哪,這不過是上帝工作的些微; 我們所聽於他的是何等細微的聲音! 他大能的雷聲誰能明透呢?
Lo, these are the borders of his ways; but what a whisper of a word do we hear of him! And the thunder of his power, who can understand?
