伯27

約伯記-Job 第 27 章

27:1	約伯繼續他的講論，說， Then Job again took up his discourse and said,
27:2	我指著那奪去我的理的永活神，就是那使我魂愁苦的全能者起誓， As God lives, who has taken away my right, And the Almighty, who has embittered my soul,
27:3	隻要我的氣息尚在我裏麵，神的氣仍在我的鼻孔內， As long as my breath is in me And the spirit of God is in my nostrils,
27:4	我的嘴必不說不義之言，我的舌也不發詭詐之語。 Surely my lips will not speak anything wrong, Nor will my tongue utter deceit.
27:5	我絕不稱你們為義！我至死必不丟棄自己的純全。 Far be it from me to declare you righteous! Until I die, I will not put away my integrity from me.
27:6	我持定我的義，必不放鬆；在我一生的日子，我的心必不責備我。 To my righteousness I will hold fast, I will not let it go; My heart does not reproach me for any of my days.
27:7	願我的仇敵如惡人一樣，願那起來攻擊我的，如不義之人一般。 May my enemy be like a wicked man, And may he who rises up against me be like someone unjust.
27:8	不虔敬的人被神剪除，神奪取其命的時候，他還有什麼指望呢？ For what is the hope of the profane man when God cuts him off, When He takes away his soul?
27:9	患難臨到他，神豈聽他的哀聲？ Will God hear his cry When distress comes upon him?
27:10	他豈以全能者為樂，隨時呼求神呢？ Does he take delight in the Almighty? Will he call upon God at all times?
27:11	神的作為，我要指教你們；關於全能者的事，我也不隱瞞。 I will teach you about the hand of God; What is with the Almighty I will not conceal.
27:12	你們自己其實也都見過；為何你們竟全然變為虛妄呢？ Indeed, all of you have seen it yourselves; And why then have you become altogether vain?
27:13	惡人在神那裏所有的分，強暴人從全能者所得的報，乃是這樣： This is the portion with God for a wicked man, And the inheritance that oppressors receive from the Almighty:
27:14	倘或他的兒女增多，還是被刀劍所殺；他的子孫必不得飽食。 If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword; And his offspring will not be satisfied with bread;
27:15	他所遺留的人，必死而埋葬；他的寡婦也不哀哭。 Those who remain of him will be buried in death, And his widows will not lament.
27:16	他雖堆積銀子如塵沙，豫備衣服如泥土； Though he heaps up silver like dust And prepares garments like clay,
27:17	他隻管豫備，義人卻要穿上；他的銀子，無辜的人要分取。 He may prepare them, but the righteous will wear them; And the innocent will divide the silver.
27:18	他建造房屋如蠹蟲作窩，又如守望者所搭的棚。 He builds his house as a moth does And like a hut that a watchman makes.
27:19	他躺臥時雖然富足，卻不再富足；一睜開眼，他的財富就不在了。 He lies down rich but will be rich no more; He opens his eyes, and he is not.
27:20	驚恐如眾水將他追上，暴風在夜間將他刮去。 Terrors overtake him like waters; At night a whirlwind steals him away.
27:21	東風把他飄去，又把他刮離本處。 The east wind carries him off, and he goes; And it sweeps him out of his place.
27:22	神要向他射箭，並不留情；他急忙要逃脫神的手。 And God hurls at him and does not spare; He hastily flees from His hand.
27:23	人要向他拍掌，並發叱聲，趕他離開本處。 Men clap their hands at him And hiss him out of his place.
