伯42

約伯記-Job 第 42 章

42:1	約伯回答耶和華說， Then Job answered Jehovah and said,
42:2	我知道你萬事都能作，你的定旨是不能攔阻的。 I know that You can do all things And that no purpose of Yours can be restrained.
42:3	誰用無知的言語，使你的旨意隱藏呢？故此我說了我所不明白的；這些事對我太奇妙，是我不知道的。 Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.
42:4	求你聽我，我要說話；我要問你，求你指示我。 Hear now, and I will speak; I will ask of You, and You shall inform me.
42:5	我從前風聞有你，現在親眼看見你。 I had heard of You by the hearing of the ear, But now my eye has seen You;
42:6	因此我厭惡自己，在塵土和爐灰中懊悔。 Therefore I abhor myself, and I repent In dust and ashes.
42:7	耶和華對約伯說了這些話以後，就對提幔人以利法說，我的怒氣向你和你兩個朋友發作，因為你們議論我，不如我的仆人約伯說的是。 And after Jehovah had spoken these words to Job, Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My anger is kindled against you and against your two friends, for you have not spoken concerning Me that which is right, as My servant Job has.
42:8	現在你們要取七隻公牛，七隻公羊，到我仆人約伯那裏去，為自己獻上燔祭。我的仆人約伯要為你們禱告；我因悅納他，就不按你們的愚妄辦你們；你們議論我，不如我的仆人約伯說的是。 Now therefore take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to My servant Job, and offer them as a burnt offering for yourselves. And My servant Job will pray for you; for I will accept him, so that I do not deal with you according to your folly; for you have not spoken concerning Me that which is right, as My servant Job has.
42:9	於是提幔人以利法、書亞人比勒達、拿瑪人瑣法，照著耶和華所吩咐的去行，耶和華就悅納約伯。 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as Jehovah told them; and Jehovah accepted Job.
42:10	約伯為他的朋友禱告，耶和華就使約伯從苦境轉回，並且耶和華賜給他的，比他從前所有的加倍。 And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends, and Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before.
42:11	約伯所有的兄弟姊妹，和以先所認識的人都來見他，在他家裏與他一同吃飯。因耶和華所降與他的一切災禍，他們都為他悲傷，安慰他。每人也送他一塊銀子，和一個金環。 And all his brothers and all his sisters and all his previous acquaintances came to him and ate bread with him in his house. And they consoled and comforted him for all the misfortune that Jehovah had brought upon him. And each gave to him a piece of money, and each, a gold ring.
42:12	這樣，耶和華後來賜福給約伯，比起先更多；他有一萬四千隻羊，六千隻駱駝，一千對牛，一千匹母驢。 Thus Jehovah blessed Job's latter end more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep and six thousand camels and a thousand yoke of oxen and a thousand female donkeys.
42:13	他也有七個兒子，三個女兒。 And he had seven sons and three daughters.
42:14	他給長女起名叫耶米瑪，次女叫基洗亞，三女叫基連哈樸。 And he named the first Jemimah, and the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch.
42:15	在那全地，找不著像約伯的女兒那樣美貌的婦女。她們的父親使她們在弟兄中得產業。 And in all the land no women were found as beautiful as the daughters of Job. And their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
42:16	此後，約伯又活了一百四十年，得見他的兒孫，直到四代。 And after this, Job lived a hundred and forty years; and he saw his children and his grandchildren, even four generations.
42:17	這樣，約伯年紀老邁，日子滿足而死。 And Job died, old and full of days.
