Job 26

1 And Job answereth and saith: —

约伯回答说：

2 What — thou hast helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!

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 What — thou hast given counsel to the unwise, And wise plans in abundance made known.

无智慧的人蒙你何等的指教！ 你向他多显大知识！

4 With whom hast thou declared words? And whose breath came forth from thee?

你向谁发出言语来？ 谁的灵从你而出？

5 The Rephaim are formed, Beneath the waters, also their inhabitants.

在大水和水族以下的阴魂战兢。

6 Naked [is] Sheol over-against Him, And there is no covering to destruction. (Sheol h7585)

在 神面前，阴间显露； 灭亡也不得遮掩。 (Sheol h7585)

7 Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth upon nothing,

神将北极铺在空中， 将大地悬在虚空；

8 Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them.

将水包在密云中， 云却不破裂；

9 Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading over it His cloud.

遮蔽他的宝座， 将云铺在其上；

10 A limit He hath placed on the waters, Unto the boundary of light with darkness.

在水面的周围划出界限， 直到光明黑暗的交界。

11 Pillars of the heavens do tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.

天的柱子因他的斥责震动惊奇。

12 By His power He hath quieted the sea, And by His understanding smitten the proud.

他以能力搅动大海； 他借知识打伤拉哈伯，

13 By His Spirit the heavens He beautified, Formed hath His hand the fleeing serpent.

借他的灵使天有妆饰； 他的手刺杀快蛇。

14 Lo, these [are] the borders of His way, And how little a matter is heard of Him, And the thunder of His might Who doth 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？
