約伯傳 |
Job | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 婦女所生的人，壽命不長，且飽嘗煩惱。 | 1 | Man born of a woman, living for a short time, is filled with many miseries. |
| 2 | 他生出像花，瞬息凋謝；急馳如影，不得停留。 | 2 | Who cometh forth like a flower, and is destroyed, and fleeth as a shadow, and never continueth in the same state. |
| 3 | 這樣的人，豈配你睜眼注視一下？或傳他到你面前聽審？ | 3 | And dost thou think it meet to open thy eyes upon such an one, and to bring him into judgment with thee? |
| 4 | 誰能使潔淨出於不潔？沒有一人！ | 4 | Who can make him clean that is conceived of unclean seed ? is it not thou who only art? |
| 5 | 他的時日既已注定，他的歲數既由你掌管，他決不能越過你定下的期限： | 5 | The days of man are short, and the number of his months is with thee: thou hast appointed his bounds which cannot be passed. |
| 6 | 請你別看他，讓他安息，好像傭工度過自己的日期。 | 6 | Depart a little from him, that he may rest, until his wished for day come, as that of the hireling. |
| 7 | 若是一棵樹被砍伐了，仍有希望生出新芽，嫩枝叢出不窮。 | 7 | A tree hath hope: if it be cut, it groweth green again, and the boughs thereof sprout. |
| 8 | 它的根雖老於地下，枝幹縱枯死地上， | 8 | If its root be old in the earth, and its stock be dead in the dust: |
| 9 | 但一有水氣，立即生芽，好似幼苗發出枝葉。 | 9 | At the scent of water, it shall spring, and bring forth leaves, as when it was first planted. |
| 10 | 但是人一死，立即僵臥；人一斷氣，他究竟在何處？ | 10 | But man when he shall be dead, and stripped and consumed, I pray you where is he? |
| 11 | 海水能乾涸，江河能枯竭； | 11 | As if the waters should depart out of the sea, and an emptied river should be dried up: |
| 12 | 同樣，人一僵臥，即不能起立，直到天不存在，仍不能醒起，仍不能由永眠中起來。 | 12 | So man when he is fallen asleep shall not rise again; till the heavens be broken, he shall not awake, nor rise up out of his sleep. |
| 13 | 唯願你將我藏於陰府，將我隱藏，直到挽回你的憤怒；願你給我定一期限，好記念我。 | 13 | Who will grant me this, that thou mayest protect me in hell, and hide me till thy wrath pass, and appoint me a. time when thou wilt remember me? |
| 14 | 人若死了，豈能再生？我在整個從軍之日，要堅持到底，直到換班的時期到來。 | 14 | Shall man that is dead, thinkest thou, live again? all the days in which I am now in warfare, I expect until my change come. |
| 15 | 你若呼喚我，我必回答你：你對你手所造的，必有一種懷念。 | 15 | Thou shalt call me, and I will answer thee: to the work of thy hands thou shalt reach out thy right hand. |
| 16 | 你現今既數了我的腳步，不必再監察我的罪過。 | 16 | Thou indeed hast numbered my steps, but spare my sins. |
| 17 | 請把我的罪過封閉在囊中，滌淨我的一切過犯。 | 17 | Thou hast sealed up my offences as it were in a bag, but hast cured my iniquity. |
| 18 | 但是，山能崩裂離析，盤石能由原處挪移， | 18 | A mountain falling cometh to nought, and a rock is removed out of its place. |
| 19 | 流水能穿過石頭，驟雨能沖出泥沙：你也照樣消滅了人的希望。 | 19 | Waters wear away the stones, and with inundation the ground by little and little is washed away: so in like manner thou shalt destroy man. |
| 20 | 你時常攻擊他，使他消逝；改變他的容貌，遣他離去。 | 20 | Thou hast strengthened him for a little while, that he may pass away for ever: thou shalt change his face, and shalt send him away. |
| 21 | 此後，他的兒子受尊榮與否，他也不知；他們受輕賤與否，他也不覺。 | 21 | Whether his children come to honour or dishonour, he shall not understand. |
| 22 | 他只覺自己肉身的痛苦，他的心靈只為自己悲哀。 | 22 | But yet his flesh, while he shall live, shall have pain, and his soul shall mourn over him. |
