Job 27
1 Job again took up his parable, and said,
约伯接着说：
2 "As God lives, who has taken away my right, Shaddai, who has made my soul bitter.
神夺去我的理，全能者使我心中愁苦。 我指着永生的 神起誓：
3 (For the length of my life is still in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils);
我的生命尚在我里面； 神所赐呼吸之气仍在我的鼻孔内。
4 surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, neither shall my tongue utter deceit.
我的嘴决不说非义之言； 我的舌也不说诡诈之语。
5 Far be it from me that I should justify you. Until I die I will not put away my integrity from me.
我断不以你们为是； 我至死必不以自己为不正！
6 I hold fast to my righteousness, and will not let it go. My conscience will not accuse me as long as I live.
我持定我的义，必不放松； 在世的日子，我心必不责备我。
7 "Let my enemy be as the wicked. Let him who rises up against me be as the unrighteous.
愿我的仇敌如恶人一样； 愿那起来攻击我的，如不义之人一般。
8 For what is the hope of the godless, when he is cut off, when God takes away his life?
不敬虔的人虽然得利， 神夺取其命的时候还有什么指望呢？
9 Will God hear his cry when trouble comes on him?
患难临到他， 神岂能听他的呼求？
10 Will he delight himself in Shaddai, and call on God at all times?
他岂以全能者为乐， 随时求告 神呢？
11 I will teach you about the hand of God. That which is with Shaddai will I not conceal.
神的作为，我要指教你们； 全能者所行的，我也不隐瞒。
12 Look, all of you have seen it yourselves; why then have you become altogether vain?
你们自己也都见过， 为何全然变为虚妄呢？
13 "This is the portion of a wicked man with God, the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from Shaddai.
神为恶人所定的分， 强暴人从全能者所得的报乃是这样：
14 If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword. His offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
倘或他的儿女增多，还是被刀所杀； 他的子孙必不得饱食。
15 Those who remain of him shall be buried in death. His widows shall make no lamentation.
他所遗留的人必死而埋葬； 他的寡妇也不哀哭。
16 Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare clothing as the clay;
他虽积蓄银子如尘沙， 预备衣服如泥土；
17 he may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.
他只管预备，义人却要穿上； 他的银子，无辜的人要分取。
18 He builds his house as the moth, as a booth which the watchman makes.
他建造房屋如虫做窝， 又如守望者所搭的棚。
19 He lies down rich, but he shall not do so again. He opens his eyes, and it is gone.
他虽富足躺卧，却不得收殓， 转眼之间就不在了。
20 Terrors overtake him like waters. A storm steals him away in the night.
惊恐如波涛将他追上； 暴风在夜间将他刮去。
21 The east wind carries him away, and he departs. It sweeps him out of his place.
东风把他飘去， 又刮他离开本处。
22 For it hurls at him, and does not spare, as he flees away from his hand.
神要向他射箭，并不留情； 他恨不得逃脱 神的手。
23 Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
人要向他拍掌， 并要发叱声，使他离开本处。
