約伯記-Job 第 40 章 |
40:1 | 耶和華又回答約伯說, And Jehovah answered Job and said, |
40:2 | 責難的人,豈可與全能者爭論?與神辯駁的,可以回答這些罷。 Shall one who finds fault contend with the Almighty? Let him who argues with God answer it. |
40:3 | 於是約伯回答耶和華說, Then Job answered Jehovah and said, |
40:4 | 看哪,我是卑賤的,可用什麼回答你呢?我隻好用手捂口。 Indeed, I am worthless. What shall I reply to You? I lay my hand over my mouth. |
40:5 | 我說了一次,再不回答;說了兩次,就不再說。 I have spoken once, and I will not answer; And twice, and I will proceed no further. |
40:6 | 於是耶和華從旋風中回答約伯,說, And Jehovah answered Job out of the whirlwind and said, |
40:7 | 你要如勇士束腰;我問你,你可以指示我。 Gird up now your loins like a mighty man; For I will ask of you, and you shall inform Me. |
40:8 | 你豈真要廢棄我所審斷的?豈可定我有罪,好顯自己為義麼? Will you indeed annul my judgment? Will you condemn Me so that you may be justified? |
40:9 | 你有神那樣的膀臂麼?你能以祂那樣的聲音打雷麼? Or do you have an arm like God's, And can you thunder with a voice like His? |
40:10 | 你當以威榮尊高為妝飾,以尊榮威嚴為衣服; Deck yourself now with majesty and excellency, And array yourself with honor and splendor. |
40:11 | 倒出你滿溢的怒氣,觀看一切驕傲的人,使他們降卑; Pour forth the overflowings of your anger, And look upon everyone who is proud, and abase him. |
40:12 | 觀看一切驕傲的人,將他們製伏;把惡人踐踏在他們所立之處; Look upon everyone who is proud; bring him down; And tread down the wicked where they stand. |
40:13 | 將他們一同隱藏在塵土中,把他們的臉纏裹在隱密處。 Hide them in the dust together; Bind their faces in the hidden place. |
40:14 | 這樣,我也就稱讚你,因你的右手能救自己。 Then even I will praise you, That your own right hand can save you. |
40:15 | 你且觀看河馬,我造你也造牠;牠吃草與牛一樣。 Behold now the behemoth, which I made as well as you: He eats grass like the ox. |
40:16 | 看哪,牠的力量在腰間,能力在肚腹的肌肉上。 Behold now, his strength is in his loins, And his power is in the muscles of his belly. |
40:17 | 牠搖動尾巴如香柏樹;牠大腿的筋互相聯結。 He bends his tail like a cedar; The sinews of his thighs knit together. |
40:18 | 牠的骨頭好像銅管;牠的肢體仿佛鐵棍。 His bones are like bronze tubes; His limbs, like iron bars. |
40:19 | 牠在神的造物中為首;惟有造牠的能拿刀劍靠近牠。 He is the first of God's ways; Only his Maker can approach him with His sword. |
40:20 | 諸山給牠出產食物,田野百獸也在那裏遊玩。 For the mountains yield food for him, Where every animal of the field plays. |
40:21 | 牠伏在蓮葉之下,臥在蘆葦隱密處和沼澤裏。 Under the lotus plants he lies down, In the covert of the reed and the marsh. |
40:22 | 蓮葉的陰影遮蔽牠,溪旁的柳樹環繞牠。 The lotus plants cover him with their shade; The willows of the brook surround him. |
40:23 | 看哪,河水泛濫,牠不戰抖;就是約但河的水衝到牠口邊,牠也是安然。 Indeed, if a river overflows, he does not tremble; He is confident, though the Jordan rushes against his mouth. |
40:24 | 在牠警覺的時候,誰能捉拿牠,或用鉤子穿牠的鼻子呢? Will anyone catch him while he is watching, Or pierce his nose with a snare? |
