| 1 | 特曼人厄里法次接著說： | 1 | Then Eliphaz the Themanite answered, and said: |
| 2 | 人為天主能有什麼益處？明智人只能於一己有益。 | 2 | Can man be compared with God, even though he were of perfect knowledge? |
| 3 | 縱然你公正，對全能者能有什麼好處？縱然你品行齊全，對天主有什麼利益？ | 3 | What doth it profit God if thou be just? or what dost thou give him if thy way be unspotted? |
| 4 | 他豈能因你敬畏之心而責斥你，拉你來聽審？ | 4 | Shall he reprove thee for fear, and come with thee into judgment: |
| 5 | 豈不是因為你罪惡多端，罪過無窮？ | 5 | And not for thy manifold wickedness, and thy infinite iniquities? |
| 6 | 因為你無理地強取了你兄弟的抵押，剝去了人的衣服，使之赤裸； | 6 | For thou hast taken away the pledge of thy brethren without cause, and stripped the naked of their clothing. |
| 7 | 口渴的人，你沒有給他水喝；饑餓的人，你沒有給他飯吃； | 7 | Thou hast not given water to the weary, thou hast withdrawn bread from the hungry. |
| 8 | 讓強有力的人佔有土地，讓尊貴體面的人住在其中； | 8 | In the strength of thy arm thou didst possess the land, and being the most mighty thou holdest it. |
| 9 | 卻使寡婦空手而歸，折斷孤兒的手臂； | 9 | Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless thou hast broken in pieces. |
| 10 | 因此羅網要四面圍困你，恐嚇突降，使你驚惶。 | 10 | Therefore art thou surrounded with snares, and sudden fear troubleth thee. |
| 11 | 光明變成黑暗，使你毫無所見；洪水漫漫，將你淹沒。 | 11 | And didst thou think that thou shouldst not see darkness, and that thou shouldst not be covered with the violence of overflowing waters? |
| 12 | 天主豈不是居於高天？看，最高的星辰何其高遠？ | 12 | Dost not thou think that God is higher than heaven, and is elevated above the height of the stars? |
| 13 | 你曾說過：「天主知道什麼？他豈能透過黑雲施行審判？ | 13 | And thou sayst: What doth God know? and he judgeth as it were through a mist. |
| 14 | 雲彩遮蔽著他，使他看不到什麼，而他只在天邊周圍遊行。」 | 14 | The clouds are his covert, and he doth not consider our things, and he walketh about the poles of heaven. |
| 15 | 你豈要固守惡人所蹈的故轍？ | 15 | Dost thou desire to keep the path of ages, which wicked men have trodden? |
| 16 | 尚未到時，他們已被攫去，大水沖去了他們的基礎。 | 16 | Who were taken away before their time, and a flood hath overthrown their foundation. |
| 17 | 他們曾向天主說：「離開我們！全能者能為我們作什麼？」 | 17 | Who said to God: Depart from us: and looked upon the Almighty as if he could do nothing: |
| 18 | 他原來是以福利充滿了他們的家，可是惡人的思想離他很遠。 | 18 | Whereas he had filled their houses with good things: whose way of thinking be far from me. |
| 19 | 義人見了就歡樂，無罪者也譏笑他們說： | 19 | The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and the innocent shall laugh them to scorn. |
| 20 | 「的確，他們的財富已被消滅，他們所剩餘的皆被火焚毀。」 | 20 | Is not their exaltation cut down, and hath not fire devoured the remnants of them? |
| 21 | 請你與他親善和好，藉此你的幸福必得恢復。 | 21 | Submit thyself then to him, and be at peace: and thereby thou shalt have the best fruits. |
| 22 | 請你領受他口中的教訓，將他的話存在心中。 | 22 | Receive the law of his mouth, and lay up his words in thy heart. |
| 23 | 如果你歸向全能者，你必興起；你若使邪惡離開你的帳幕， | 23 | If thou wilt return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, and shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacle. |
| 24 | 視金子如塵埃，視敖非爾金如溪石， | 24 | He shall give for earth flint, and for flint torrents of gold. |
| 25 | 全能者必作為你的精金，作為你的銀堆。 | 25 | And the Almighty shall be against thy enemies, and silver shall be heaped together for thee. |
| 26 | 那時你必以全能者為喜樂，向天主仰起你的頭來。 | 26 | Then shalt thou abound in delights in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face to God. |
| 27 | 那時你祈求他，他必應允你；你可向他還你的誓願。 | 27 | Thou shalt pray to him, and he will hear thee, and thou shalt pay vows. |
| 28 | 你決定的事，事必成就；光明要照耀你的道路， | 28 | Thou shalt decree a thing, and it I shall come to thee, and light shall shine in thy ways. |
| 29 | 因為他壓伏驕傲的人，拯救低首下心的人。 | 29 | For he that hath been humbled, shall be in glory: and he that shall bow down his eyes, he shall be saved. |
| 30 | 他必解救無罪的人；你若手中清廉，你必獲救。 | 30 | The innocent shall be saved, and he shall be saved by the cleanness of his hands. |
