约伯记 19
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
约伯的回答
19 约伯回答说：
2 “你们要折磨我多久？
用言语压碎我到何时？
3 你们侮辱我已有十次之多，
苦待我也不以为耻。
4 即使我真有过错，
也由我独自承担。
5 你们若真要妄自尊大，
利用我的耻辱来指责我，
6 也该知道是上帝冤枉了我，
用网罗套住我。
7 我喊冤，却无人回应；
我呼救，却不见公道。
8 上帝筑起墙垒，阻断我的路，
祂使黑暗笼罩我的路途。
9 祂剥去我的荣耀，
摘走我头上的冠冕。
10 祂从四面攻击我，直到我消逝；
祂把我的希望像树一样连根拔除。
11 祂向我发烈怒，
视我为仇敌。
12 祂的大军蜂拥而来，
在我帐篷四周扎营，
将我团团围住。
13 “祂使我的弟兄远离我，
我的熟人完全背弃我。
14 我的亲属离开我，
我的挚友忘记我。
15 我的客人和婢女都视我如陌路，
把我当作外族人。
16 我呼唤仆人，他却不回应；
我哀求他，他也不理睬。
17 我妻子厌恶我的气息，
我的手足都嫌弃我。
18 连小孩子都鄙视我；
我一出现，他们就嘲笑我。
19 我的密友都憎恶我，
我爱的人也反对我。
20 我瘦得只剩下皮包骨，
我离死亡仅一线之隔[a]。
21 “我的朋友啊，可怜我吧！可怜我吧！
因为上帝的手击打我。
22 你们为何像上帝一样逼我？
为何吃了我的肉还不满足？
23 但愿把我的话写下来，
记录在书卷上，
24 用铁笔和铅镌刻在磐石上，
直存到永远。
25 我知道我的救赎主活着，
最后祂必站在地上。
26 我的皮肉虽然要朽烂，
但我必活着[b]见上帝。
27 我要亲自见祂，
我要亲眼见祂。
我心中充满渴望！
28 你们说祸根在我身上，
还想继续迫害我。
29 你们自己应当畏惧刀剑，
因为烈怒会带来刀剑的惩罚，
那时你们将知道有审判。”
Job 19
King James Version
19 Then Job answered and said,
2 How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?
3 These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed that ye make yourselves strange to me.
4 And be it indeed that I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.
5 If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach:
6 Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.
7 Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.
8 He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.
9 He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.
10 He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.
11 He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me unto him as one of his enemies.
12 His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle.
13 He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily estranged from me.
14 My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.
15 They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.
16 I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I intreated him with my mouth.
17 My breath is strange to my wife, though I intreated for the children's sake of mine own body.
18 Yea, young children despised me; I arose, and they spake against me.
19 All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.
20 My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.
22 Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?
23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!
25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
28 But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?
29 Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.
Job 19
New King James Version
Job Trusts in His Redeemer
19 Then Job answered and said:
2 “How long will you torment my soul,
And break me in pieces with words?
3 These ten times you have [a]reproached me;
You are not ashamed that you [b]have wronged me.
4 And if indeed I have erred,
My error remains with me.
5 If indeed you (A)exalt yourselves against me,
And plead my disgrace against me,
6 Know then that (B)God has wronged me,
And has surrounded me with His net.
7 “If I cry out concerning [c]wrong, I am not heard.
If I cry aloud, there is no justice.
8 (C)He has [d]fenced up my way, so that I cannot pass;
And He has set darkness in my paths.
9 (D)He has stripped me of my glory,
And taken the crown from my head.
10 He breaks me down on every side,
And I am gone;
My (E)hope He has uprooted like a tree.
11 He has also kindled His wrath against me,
And (F)He counts me as one of His enemies.
12 His troops come together
And build up their road against me;
They encamp all around my tent.
13 “He(G) has removed my brothers far from me,
And my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.
14 My relatives have failed,
And my close friends have forgotten me.
15 Those who dwell in my house, and my maidservants,
Count me as a stranger;
I am an alien in their sight.
16 I call my servant, but he gives no answer;
I beg him with my mouth.
17 My breath is offensive to my wife,
And I am [e]repulsive to the children of my own body.
18 Even (H)young children despise me;
I arise, and they speak against me.
19 (I)All my close friends abhor me,
And those whom I love have turned against me.
20 (J)My bone clings to my skin and to my flesh,
And I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.
21 “Have pity on me, have pity on me, O you my friends,
For the hand of God has struck me!
22 Why do you (K)persecute me as God does,
And are not satisfied with my flesh?
23 “Oh, that my words were written!
Oh, that they were inscribed in a book!
24 That they were engraved on a rock
With an iron pen and lead, forever!
25 For I know that my Redeemer lives,
And He shall stand at last on the earth;
26 And after my skin is [f]destroyed, this I know,
That (L)in my flesh I shall see God,
27 Whom I shall see for myself,
And my eyes shall behold, and not another.
How my [g]heart yearns within me!
28 If you should say, ‘How shall we persecute him?’—
Since the root of the matter is found in me,
29 Be afraid of the sword for yourselves;
For wrath brings the punishment of the sword,
That you may know there is a judgment.”
