约伯记 32
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
以利户向约伯与三友发怒
32 因为约伯自以为义,于是这三个人就不再回答他。 2 那时,布西人兰族巴拉迦的儿子以利户发怒了;他向约伯发怒,因为他在 神面前自以为义。 3 他又向约伯的三个朋友发怒,因为他们虽然仍以约伯为有罪,却找不到回答的话来。 4 以利户等待着要向约伯说话,因为他们的年纪都比以利户大。 5 以利户一见这三个人的口里无话回答,他就发怒了。
以利户发言陈述己见
6 布西人巴拉迦的儿子以利户回答说:
“我年纪轻,你们年纪大,
因此我拘束畏惧,不敢向你们表达我的意见。
7 我心里想:‘年长的当先说话,
寿高的当以智慧教训人。’
8 但是在人心里面有灵,
全能者的气息使人有聪明。
9 年纪大的不都有智慧,
年老的不都能明白是非,
10 因此我说:‘你们要听我说话,
我也要说出我的意见。’
11 你们砌词说话的时候,
我等待着你们的话,
留心听你们的理论。
12 我留意听你们,
不料,你们中间没有人能驳倒约伯,
驳回他所说的话。
13 你们不要说:‘我们寻得了智慧;
能胜过他的,是 神,不是人。’
14 约伯没有用他的话攻击我,
我也不用你们的话回答他。
15 他们惊惶失措,不再回应,
他们没有甚么可说的话了。
16 因为他们不说话,因为他们站着不再回应,
我就等待吗?
17 我也要回答我的一份话,
我也要表达我的意见,
18 因为我充满了要说的话,
我里面的灵催逼我说出来。
19 我里面如盛酒的囊,没有出气的地方,
又如新酒袋,快要破裂。
20 我要说话,使我可以舒畅,
我要开口回答。
21 我必不徇人的情面,
也不奉承人,
22 因为我不晓得怎样奉承。
不然,我的创造主很快就把我除去。”
Job 32
King James Version
32 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
2 Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.
3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.
4 Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken, because they were elder than he.
5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled.
6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.
7 I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.
8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
9 Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.
10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.
11 Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.
12 Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words:
13 Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.
14 Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches.
15 They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.
16 When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)
17 I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.
18 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
19 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles.
20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer.
21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man.
22 For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away.
