< Job 26 >

1 Then Job answered,
约伯回答说:
2 "How have you helped him who is without power. How have you saved the arm that has no strength.
无能的人蒙你何等的帮助! 膀臂无力的人蒙你何等的拯救!
3 How have you counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge.
无智慧的人蒙你何等的指教! 你向他多显大知识!
4 To whom have you uttered words? Whose spirit came forth from you?
你向谁发出言语来? 谁的灵从你而出?
5 "Those who are deceased tremble, those beneath the waters and all that live in them.
在大水和水族以下的阴魂战兢。
6 Sheol is naked before him, and Abaddon has no covering. (Sheol h7585)
在 神面前,阴间显露; 灭亡也不得遮掩。 (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretches out the north over empty space, and hangs the earth on nothing.
神将北极铺在空中, 将大地悬在虚空;
8 He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not burst under them.
将水包在密云中, 云却不破裂;
9 He encloses the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud on it.
遮蔽他的宝座, 将云铺在其上;
10 He has described a boundary on the surface of the waters, and to the confines of light and darkness.
在水面的周围划出界限, 直到光明黑暗的交界。
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
天的柱子因他的斥责震动惊奇。
12 He stirs up the sea with his power, and by his understanding he strikes through Rahab.
他以能力搅动大海; 他借知识打伤拉哈伯,
13 By his Spirit the heavens are garnished. His hand has pierced the swift serpent.
借他的灵使天有妆饰; 他的手刺杀快蛇。
14 Look, these are but the outskirts of his ways. How small a whisper do we hear of him. But the thunder of his power who can understand?"
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?
