约伯记 40
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
约伯在 神面前谦卑自己
40 耶和华又对约伯说：
2 “挑剔是非的，怎能与全能者争辩呢？
责备 神的，回答这个问题吧。”
3 于是约伯回答耶和华说：
4 “我是微小的，可以回答你甚么呢？
我只好用手掩口。
5 这说了一次，不再回答；
说了二次就不再说。”
耶和华再教训约伯
6 于是耶和华从旋风中回答约伯说：
7 “你要如勇士束腰，
我要问你，你要告诉我。
8 你怎能废弃我所审断的？
怎能定我为有罪，好显出你自己为义呢？
9 你有 神那样的膀臂吗？
你能用他那样的声音打雷吗？
10 你当以庄严与尊贵为装饰，
以尊荣与威严为衣服。
11 要倒尽你忿激的怒气，
观看所有骄傲的人，使他们降卑。
12 观看所有骄傲的人，把他制伏，
把恶人践踏在他们的地方，
13 把他们一起掩藏在尘土里，
把他们本人捆绑在隐密处。
14 这样，我就要向你承认，
你的右手能拯救你。
神创造河马
15 你看看河马吧，
我造牠像造你一样，
牠吃草如牛一般。
16 你看，牠的力量在腰间，
牠的能力在肚腹的肌肉上，
17 牠挺直尾巴硬如香柏树，
牠大腿的筋虬结在一起，
18 牠的骨头仿佛铜管，
牠的骨干好象铁棍。
19 牠在 神所造的事工中居首（“牠在 神所造的事工中居首”直译作“牠在 神的工作中居首”），
只有创造牠的能使刀剑临到牠身上。
20 群山为牠生出食物，
田野的百兽都在那里玩耍。
21 牠躺在莲叶之下，
躺在芦苇丛中与泥泽之间；
22 莲叶的阴影遮蔽牠，
溪旁的白杨树环绕牠。
23 江河泛滥，牠毫不慌张，
约旦河的水涨到牠的口边，牠还是安然。
24 牠警觉的时候谁能捉拿牠？
谁能用铁圈穿牠的鼻子呢？”

40 耶和华又对约伯说：
2 “强辩者岂可与全能者争论？
与上帝辩驳的人请作出答复。”
3 约伯回答耶和华说：
4 “我这样卑微，怎能答复你？
我只有用手掩口。
5 我说了一次，不能答复；
说了两次，不敢再说。”
6 耶和华从旋风中对约伯说：
7 “你要像勇士一样束腰备战，
我来提问，你来回答。
8 你要推翻我的公义，
归罪于我而自以为义吗？
9 你有上帝那样的臂膀吗？
你能像祂那样发出雷鸣吗？
10 请展示你的荣耀和光辉，
披上你的尊荣和威严；
11 发泄你满腔的怒火，
鉴察骄傲者，贬抑他；
12 鉴察骄傲者，制服他，
将恶人原地践踏；
13 将他们一起埋进尘土，
藏入幽冥。
14 这样，我就承认你的右手能拯救自己。
15 “你看河马，
它和你都是我造的，
它像牛一样吃草。
16 你看它腰间的气力，
它腹部肌肉的力量。
17 它尾巴挺直如香柏树，
大腿的筋紧密相连，
18 骨头如铜管，
四肢像铁棍。
19 它是上帝创造的杰作，
创造主赐给它利刃[a]。
20 群山供应它食物，
百兽在那里玩耍。
21 它躺在莲叶之下，
藏在泥沼的芦苇间，
22 莲叶为它遮荫，
溪畔的柳树环绕它。
23 河水泛滥，它不惊惧；
约旦河涨到它口边，它也无忧。
24 谁能在它警觉时捕捉它，
或用钩子穿透它的鼻子？

Job 40
King James Version
40 Moreover the Lord answered Job, and said,
2 Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it.
3 Then Job answered the Lord, and said,
4 Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
5 Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.
6 Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
7 Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
8 Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?
9 Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
10 Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.
11 Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.
12 Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.
13 Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret.
14 Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
15 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
16 Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
17 He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
18 His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.
19 He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.
20 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
21 He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.
22 The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
23 Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.
24 He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.
