< Job 23 >

1 and to answer Job and to say
約伯回答說:
2 also [the] day rebellion complaint my hand my to honor: heavy upon sighing my
直到今天,我還是痛苦的哀訴,他沉重的手掌,使我不得不呻吟。
3 who? to give: if only! to know and to find him to come (in): come till place his
惟願我知道怎樣能尋到天主,能達到他的寶座前,
4 to arrange to/for face: before his justice and lip my to fill argument
好將我的案情向他陳訴,因為我口中滿了證詞!
5 to know speech to answer me and to understand what? to say to/for me
唯願我知道他答覆我的話,明瞭他向我說什麼!
6 in/on/with abundance strength to contend with me me not surely he/she/it to set: consider in/on/with me
他豈能靠強力同我爭辯﹖決不,他必留神聽我。
7 there upright to rebuke with him and to escape to/for perpetuity from to judge me
如此,他會分辨出同他爭論的是個正直人,也許我可永久不再受裁判!
8 look! front: forward to go: went and nothing he and back and not to understand to/for him
可是我往東行,他不在那裏;我往西行,也找不到他;
9 left in/on/with to make: do he and not to see to turn aside right and not to see: see
往北找,也看不見他;往南去,也見不到他。
10 for to know way: conduct with me me to test me like/as gold to come out: come
他洞悉我所有的行動。他若試驗我,我必如純金出現。
11 in/on/with step his to grasp foot my way: conduct his to keep: obey and not to stretch
我的腳緊隨著他的足跡,謹守他的道,總沒有偏離。
12 commandment lips his and not to remove from statute: portion my to treasure word lip his
他所發的命令,我總沒有違背;他口中的訓言,我常保存在心中。
13 and he/she/it in/on/with one and who? to return: turn back him and soul: myself his to desire and to make: do
但他所決定的,誰能變更﹖他所樂意的,必要實行。
14 for to complete statute: portion my and like/as them many with him
他為我注定的,必要完成;類似的事,還有很多。
15 upon so from face his to dismay to understand and to dread from him
因此,為了他,我很驚慌,一想起來就害怕。
16 and God be tender heart my and Almighty to dismay me
天主使我的心沮喪,全能者使我恐怖。
17 for not to destroy from face: before darkness and from face my to cover darkness
因為我雖面臨黑暗,幽暗雖遮蓋我的面,我仍不喪氣。
