約伯記 6
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
約伯自述無辜
6 約伯回答說：
2 「要是能秤量我的苦難，
把我的災殃放在秤上，
3 那將比海沙還重；
所以我言語魯莽。
4 因為全能者的箭射中我，
箭毒侵蝕我的靈，
祂使恐懼列隊襲來。
5 野驢有草豈會叫喚？
牛有飼料豈會哞叫？
6 淡食無鹽豈可下嚥？
蛋白有什麼滋味呢？
7 我碰都不想碰，
它們令我噁心。
8 唯願我的祈求蒙應允，
願上帝成全我的冀望，
9 願祂壓碎我，
伸手毀滅我。
10 這樣，我還能感到欣慰，
在殘酷的痛苦中雀躍，
因我沒有違背聖者之言。
11 我有何力量可以支撐下去？
有何前景讓我忍耐下去？
12 我的力量豈能堅如石？
我豈是銅造之軀？
13 我毫無自救之力，
已到窮途末路。
14 「即使絕望者拋棄對上帝的敬畏，
也應該得到朋友的恩待。
15 我的弟兄難以信賴，如同季節河，
又像變化無常的河道——
16 結冰後顏色發黑，
融雪後水流漲溢；
17 水流在乾季時消失，
河床在烈日下乾涸。
18 商隊偏離原路來找水喝，
結果在荒漠中死去。
19 提瑪的商隊來找水喝，
示巴的旅客指望解渴，
20 結果希望化為泡影，
到了那裡大失所望。
21 同樣，你們幫不了我，
你們看見災禍便害怕。
22 我何嘗對你們說過，
『請你們供應我，
把你們的財產給我一份，
23 從仇敵手中拯救我，
從殘暴之徒手中救贖我』？
24 「請多賜教，我會閉口不言；
請指出我錯在何處。
25 忠言何等逆耳！
但你們的指責有何根據？
26 你們既視絕望者的話如風，
還要來糾正嗎？
27 你們甚至抽籤得孤兒，
把朋友當貨物賣掉。
28 懇請你們看著我，
我在你們面前撒過謊嗎？
29 請以仁慈為懷，公正一點；
請以仁慈為懷，因我誠實無過。
30 我豈會說詭詐之言？
我豈會是非不辨？

约伯自述无辜
6 约伯回答说：
2 “要是能称量我的苦难，

3 那将比海沙还重；
所以我言语鲁莽。
4 因为全能者的箭射中我，
箭毒侵蚀我的灵，
祂使恐惧列队袭来。
5 野驴有草岂会叫唤？

9 愿祂压碎我，
伸手毁灭我。
10 这样，我还能感到欣慰，
在残酷的痛苦中雀跃，
因我没有违背圣者之言。
11 我有何力量可以支撑下去？
有何前景让我忍耐下去？
12 我的力量岂能坚如石？
我岂是铜造之躯？
13 我毫无自救之力，
已到穷途末路。
14 “即使绝望者抛弃对上帝的敬畏，
也应该得到朋友的恩待。

22 我何尝对你们说过，
‘请你们供应我，
把你们的财产给我一份，
23 从仇敌手中拯救我，
从残暴之徒手中救赎我’？
24 “请多赐教，我会闭口不言；
请指出我错在何处。
25 忠言何等逆耳！
但你们的指责有何根据？
26 你们既视绝望者的话如风，
还要来纠正吗？
27 你们甚至抽签得孤儿，
把朋友当货物卖掉。
28 恳请你们看着我，
我在你们面前撒过谎吗？
29 请以仁慈为怀，公正一点；
请以仁慈为怀，因我诚实无过。
30 我岂会说诡诈之言？
我岂会是非不辨？
Job 6
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Job’s Reply to Eliphaz
6 Then Job answered:
2 If only my grief could be weighed
and my devastation(A) placed with it in the scales.(B)
3 For then it would outweigh the sand of the seas!
That is why my words are rash.
4 Surely the arrows of the Almighty have pierced[a] me;
my spirit drinks their poison.
God’s terrors are arrayed against me.(C)
5 Does a wild donkey bray over fresh grass
or an ox low over its fodder?
6 Is bland food eaten without salt?
Is there flavor in an egg white?[b]
7 I refuse to touch them;
they are like contaminated food.(D)
8 If only my request would be granted
and God would provide what I hope for:
9 that He would decide to crush me,
to unleash His power and cut me off!
10 It would still bring me comfort,
and I would leap for joy in unrelenting pain
that I have not denied[c] the words of the Holy One.(E)
11 What strength do I have that I should continue to hope?
What is my future, that I should be patient?
12 Is my strength that of stone,
or my flesh made of bronze?
13 Since I cannot help myself,
the hope for success has been banished from me.
14 A despairing man should receive loyalty from his friends,[d](F)
even if he abandons the fear of the Almighty.
15 My brothers are as treacherous as a wadi,
as seasonal streams that overflow
16 and become darkened[e] because of ice,
and the snow melts into them.
17 The wadis evaporate in warm weather;
they disappear from their channels in hot weather.
18 Caravans turn away from their routes,
go up into the desert, and perish.
19 The caravans of Tema look for these streams.
The traveling merchants of Sheba hope for them.
20 They are ashamed because they had been confident of finding water.
When they arrive there, they are frustrated.(G)
21 So this is what you have now become to me.[f]
When you see something dreadful, you are afraid.
22 Have I ever said: “Give me something”
or “Pay a bribe for me from your wealth”
23 or “Deliver me from the enemy’s power”
or “Redeem me from the grasp of the ruthless”?
24 Teach me, and I will be silent.
Help me understand what I did wrong.
25 How painful honest words can be!
But what does your rebuke prove?
26 Do you think that you can disprove my words
or that a despairing man’s words are mere wind?(H)
27 No doubt you would cast lots for a fatherless child
and negotiate a price to sell your friend.(I)
