Job 10
1 I am weary of my life; I will let loose within me my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
我實在厭惡我的生活，我要任意苦訴我的怨情，傾吐我心中的酸苦。
2 I will say unto God, Do not condemn me! Show me wherefore thou contendest with me!
我要對天主說：不要定我的罪! 請告訴我：你為何與我作對﹖
3 Is it a pleasure to thee to oppress, And to despise the work of thy hands, And to shine upon the plans of the wicked?
你對親手所造的，加以虐待和厭棄，卻顯揚惡人的計劃，為你豈有好處﹖
4 Hast thou eyes of flesh, Or seest thou as man seeth?
你豈有肉眼，或者也像人一樣觀看嗎﹖
5 Are thy days as the days of a man, Are thy years as the days of a mortal,
你的日月豈像人的日月﹖你的年歲豈像人的年歲﹖
6 That thou seekest after my iniquity, And searchest after my sin,
你竟考查我的邪惡，追究我的罪過。
7 Though thou knowest that I am not guilty, And that none can deliver from thy hand?
其實你知道我並沒有罪過，也知道無人能拯救我脫離你的掌握。
8 Have thy hands completely fashioned and made me In every part, that thou mightst destroy me?
你親手形成了我，創造了我；此後你又轉念想消滅我。
9 O remember that thou hast moulded me as clay! And wilt thou bring me again to dust?
求你記憶：你造我時就像摶泥，難道還使我歸於泥土﹖
10 Thou didst pour me out as milk, And curdle me as cheese;
你不是將我像奶倒出，使我凝結像一塊奶餅﹖
11 With skin and flesh didst thou clothe me, And strengthen me with bones and sinews;
用皮和肉作我的衣服，用骨和筋把我全身聯絡起來﹖
12 Thou didst grant me life and favor, And thy protection preserved my breath:
是你將我生命的恩惠賜給了我，細心照顧維持了我的氣息。
13 Yet these things thou didst lay up in thy heart! I know that this was in thy mind.
這些事早已藏在你心中，我知道你久有此意：
14 If I sin, then thou markest me, And wilt not acquit me of mine iniquity.
你監視我，看我是否犯罪；如果我有罪；你決不放過。
15 If I am wicked, —then woe unto me! Yet if righteous, I dare not lift up my head; I am full of confusion, beholding my affliction.
我若有罪，我就有禍了! 我若有義，也不敢抬頭，因為我已備嘗凌辱，吃盡苦頭。
16 If I lift it up, like a lion thou huntest me, And again showest thyself terrible unto me.
我若抬頭，你就像獅子追捕我，向我表現你的奇能，
17 Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, And increasest thine anger toward me; New hosts continually rise up against me.
重新襲擊我，加倍對我洩怒。
18 Why then didst thou bring me forth from the womb? I should have perished, and no eye had seen me;
你為何叫我出離母胎﹖不如我那時斷氣，無人見我，
19 I should be as though I had not been; I should have been borne from the womb to the grave.
就好像從未有過我一樣，一出母胎即被送入墳墓。
20 Are not my days few? O spare then, And let me alone, that I may be at ease a little while,
我生存的日月不是很少嗎﹖你且放開我罷!
21 Before I go— whence I shall not return—To the land of darkness and death-shade,
趁我去而不返，未到冥暗死影之地，
22 The land of darkness like the blackness of death-shade, Where is no order, and where the light is as darkness.
即光明也是黑暗之地以前，讓我自在一下罷!
