約伯記 32
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
以利戶的回答
32 三人見約伯自以為義，便不再回答他。 2 那時，蘭族的布西人巴拉迦的兒子以利戶對約伯很惱火，因為約伯自以為義，不承認上帝的公義。 3 他對約伯的三個朋友也很惱火，因為他們說約伯有罪，卻無法回答約伯的質問[a]。 4 由於不及他們年長，以利戶便等他們說完才向約伯發言。 5 他見三人無法回答約伯，很惱火， 6 就說：
「我年紀輕，你們是長輩，
所以我畏懼，不敢陳明觀點。
7 我想，前輩當先發言，
長者當傳授智慧。
8 但只有人裡面的靈——
全能者的氣息賜人悟性。
9 長者不一定有智慧，
年老不一定明白是非。
10 因此，請聽我說，
我也要陳明觀點。
11 看啊，我一直等候你們發言，
傾聽你們的理論，
等你們斟詞酌句。
12 我仔細聆聽，
發現你們無人能駁倒約伯，
無人能答覆他。
13 你們不要說，『我們找到了智慧，
使他折服的是上帝而非人。』
14 約伯沒有與我辯論，
我也不會用你們的理論答覆他。
15 「他們驚慌失措，無言以對，
再也說不出話來。
16 難道他們不說話，站在那裡無言以對，
我就要等下去嗎？
17 我也要作出答覆，
陳明我的觀點。
18 因為我心裡積滿了話，
我裡面的靈催促我說出來。
19 我裡面像盛滿了酒，卻沒有出口，
又如將要破裂的新酒袋。
20 我要一吐為快，
我要開口答覆。
21 我不看人的情面，
也不奉承人。
22 我不善奉承，
否則，造物主會很快把我除掉。

Job 32
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
32 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he seemed just to himself.
2 And Eliu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram, was angry and was moved to indignation: now he was angry against Job, because he said he was just before God.
3 And he was angry with his friends because they had not found a reasonable answer, but only had condemned Job.
4 So Eliu waited while Job was speaking, because they were his elders that were speaking.
5 But when he saw that the three were not able to answer, he was exceedingly angry.
6 Then Eliu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said: I am younger in days, and you are more ancient; therefore hanging down my head, I was afraid to shew you my opinion.
7 For I hoped that greater age would speak, and that a multitude of years would teach wisdom.
8 But, as I see, there is a spirit in men, and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth understanding.
9 They that are aged are not the wise men, neither do the ancients understand judgment.
10 Therefore I will speak: Hearken to me, I also will shew you my wisdom.
11 For I have waited for your words, I have given ear to your wisdom, as long as you were disputing in words.
12 And as long as I thought you said some thing, I considered: but, as I see, there is none of you that can convince Job, and answer his words.
13 Lest you should say: We have found wisdom, God hath cast him down, not man.
14 He hath spoken nothing to me, and I will not answer him according to your words.
15 They were afraid, and answered no more, and they left off speaking.
16 Therefore because I have waited, and they have not spoken: they stood, and answered no more:
17 I also will answer my part, and will shew my knowledge.
18 For I am full of matter to speak of, and the spirit of my bowels straiteneth me.
19 Behold, my belly is as new wine which wanteth vent, which bursteth the new vessels.
20 I will speak and take breath a little: I will open my lips, and will answer.
21 I will not accept the person of man, and I will not level God with man.
22 For I know not how long I shall continue, and whether after a while my Maker may take me away.

Elihu
32 So these three men stopped answering Job,(A) because he was righteous in his own eyes.(B) 2 But Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite,(C) of the family of Ram, became very angry with Job for justifying himself(D) rather than God.(E) 3 He was also angry with the three friends,(F) because they had found no way to refute Job,(G) and yet had condemned him.[a](H) 4 Now Elihu had waited before speaking to Job because they were older than he.(I) 5 But when he saw that the three men had nothing more to say, his anger was aroused.
6 So Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite said:
“I am young in years,
and you are old;(J)
that is why I was fearful,
not daring to tell you what I know.
7 I thought, ‘Age should speak;
advanced years should teach wisdom.’(K)
8 But it is the spirit[b](L) in a person,
the breath of the Almighty,(M) that gives them understanding.(N)
9 It is not only the old[c] who are wise,(O)
not only the aged(P) who understand what is right.(Q)
10 “Therefore I say: Listen to me;(R)
I too will tell you what I know.(S)
11 I waited while you spoke,
I listened to your reasoning;
while you were searching for words,
12 I gave you my full attention.
But not one of you has proved Job wrong;
none of you has answered his arguments.(T)
13 Do not say, ‘We have found wisdom;(U)
let God, not a man, refute(V) him.’
14 But Job has not marshaled his words against me,(W)
and I will not answer him with your arguments.
15 “They are dismayed and have no more to say;
words have failed them.(X)
16 Must I wait, now that they are silent,
now that they stand there with no reply?
17 I too will have my say;
I too will tell what I know.(Y)
18 For I am full of words,
and the spirit(Z) within me compels me;(AA)
19 inside I am like bottled-up wine,
like new wineskins ready to burst.(AB)
20 I must speak and find relief;
I must open my lips and reply.(AC)
21 I will show no partiality,(AD)
nor will I flatter anyone;(AE)
22 for if I were skilled in flattery,
my Maker(AF) would soon take me away.(AG)
