| 約伯記-Job 第 23 章 |
| 23:1 | 約伯回答說， Then Job answered and said, |
| 23:2 | 今日我的哀訴還是悲苦；我雖唉哼，所受的責打仍然沉重。 Today also my complaint is bitter; My stroke is heavy because of my groaning. |
| 23:3 | 惟願我知道在那裏可以尋見神，使我可以到祂的座前！ Oh that I knew where I might find Him, That I might come to His seat! |
| 23:4 | 我要在祂麵前將我的案件陳明，滿口辯白。 I would present my cause in order before Him, And I would fill my mouth with arguments. |
| 23:5 | 我必知道祂回答我的言語，明白祂向我所說的話。 I would know the words which He would answer me, And I would understand what He would speak to me. |
| 23:6 | 祂豈用大能與我爭辯麼？必不這樣，祂必理會我。 Would He contend with me in the greatness of His power? No; but He would give heed to me. |
| 23:7 | 在祂那裏，正直人可以與祂辯論；這樣，我必永遠脫離那審判我的。 There the upright man can argue with Him; So I would be delivered forever from my Judge. |
| 23:8 | 看哪，我往前行，祂不在那裏；往後走，也看不見祂； Behold, I go forward, but He is not there; And backward, but I do not perceive Him; |
| 23:9 | 往左邊，祂在那裏行事，我不能看到；祂在右邊隱藏，我也不能見祂。 To the left, where He acts, but I cannot look on Him; He hides Himself on the right, so I cannot see Him. |
| 23:10 | 然而祂知道我所行的路；祂試煉我之後，我必顯出如金子。 But He knows the way that I take; Should He try me, I would come forth as gold. |
| 23:11 | 我腳緊隨祂的步履；我謹守祂的道路，並不偏離。 My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and have not turned aside. |
| 23:12 | 祂嘴唇的命令，我未曾離棄；我珍藏祂口中的言語，過於派定給我的飲食。 As for the commandment of His lips, I have not turned back from it; I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my apportioned food. |
| 23:13 | 隻是祂的心意始終如一，誰能使祂轉意呢？祂魂裏所願的，就行出來。 But He is of one mind, and who can turn Him? And what His soul desires, that will He do. |
| 23:14 | 祂向我所派定的，祂必作成；這類的事，祂還有許多。 For He performs what has been appointed to me, And many such things are with Him. |
| 23:15 | 所以我在祂麵前驚惶；我思念這事，便懼怕祂。 Therefore I am terrified at His presence; I consider and am in dread of Him. |
| 23:16 | 神使我心怯，全能者使我驚惶； So God has made my heart faint, And the Almighty has terrified me; |
| 23:17 | 因為我雖麵臨黑暗，卻沒有被剪除，祂沒有使我的臉遮蔽不見幽暗。 Because I was not cut off before the darkness, Nor did He cover the deep darkness from my face. |
