約伯記 41
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
41 「你豈能用魚鉤釣鱷魚，
用繩索綁住牠的舌頭？
2 你豈能用繩子穿牠的鼻子，
用鉤子穿牠的腮骨？
3 牠豈會向你連連求饒，
對你說柔和的話？
4 牠豈肯與你立約，
一生做你的奴隸？
5 你豈能拿牠當小鳥玩耍，
或拴起來給幼女取樂？
6 漁夫們豈能把牠當貨物出售，
賣給商人？
7 你豈能在牠皮上戳滿長矛，
頭上插滿魚叉？
8 你動手碰碰牠，
就知道有何惡戰，絕不會再碰。
9 企圖捕捉牠的都會失望，
人看到牠就會心驚膽戰。
10 再兇猛的人也不敢惹牠。
這樣，誰能在我面前站立得住？
11 誰給過我什麼，要我償還？
天下萬物都是我的。
12 「論到牠的四肢、大力和姣美的身體，
我不能緘默不言。
13 誰能剝去牠的外皮？
誰能給牠戴上轡頭？
14 誰能打開牠的口？
牠的牙齒令人恐懼。
15 牠的脊背覆著行行鱗甲，
牢牢地密封在一起，
16 緊密無間，
連氣也透不進去。
17 鱗甲彼此相連相扣，
無法分開。
18 牠打噴嚏時，水光四射；
牠的眼睛發出晨光；
19 口中噴出火炬，
迸出火星；
20 鼻孔冒煙，
如沸騰的鍋和燃燒的蘆葦；
21 呼氣可點燃煤炭，
口中噴出火焰；
22 頸項強而有力，
恐懼在牠前面開路；
23 身上的皺褶緊密相連，
牢牢地密封在一起；
24 心堅如石，
硬如磨石。
25 牠一站起來，勇士都害怕，
見牠衝來，他們慌忙退縮。
26 刀劍擋不住牠，
長矛、標槍、尖戟也無能為力。
27 牠視鐵如乾草，
視銅如朽木。
28 利箭嚇不跑牠，
彈石在牠看來只是碎稭；
29 棍棒無異於稭稈，
牠嗤笑投來的標槍。
30 牠腹部有鋒利的瓦片，
在淤泥上留下道道耙痕。
31 牠使深淵如鍋翻騰，
大海如油鍋滾動。
32 牠游過後留下一道波光，
使深淵彷彿披上銀髮。
33 地上沒有動物能與牠相比，
像牠那樣無所畏懼。
34 牠藐視群雄，
在高傲的百獸中稱王。」
约伯记 41
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
神造鳄鱼，显出他伟大
41 “你能用鱼钩钓上鳄鱼吗？
能用绳子把牠的舌头压下吗？
2 能把草绳穿进牠的鼻子吗？
能用刺钩穿透牠的腮骨吗？
3 牠会向你再三恳求，
对你说温柔的话吗？
4 牠肯与你立约，
好使你永远奴役牠吗？
5 你怎能玩弄牠，像玩弄雀鸟一样呢？
怎能把牠拴住，给你的幼女取乐呢？
6 结伙的渔夫怎能拿牠当货物买卖呢？
怎能把牠分给商人呢？
7 你能用倒钩扎满牠的皮吗？
能用鱼叉扎满牠的头吗？
8 你把手按在牠身上，
想到与牠的战斗，你就不再是这样作了。（本章第1~8节在《马索拉文本》为40:25~32）
9 人希望捉住牠是徒然的，
人一见牠，就心惊胆战。（本节在《马索拉文本》为41:1）
10 人惹牠的时候，牠不是很凶猛吗？
这样，有谁人在我面前能站立得住呢？
11 谁先给了我，以致我要偿还呢？
天下万物，都是我的。
12 论到鳄鱼的四肢和牠的力气，
以及美好的体态，我不能缄默不言。
13 谁能揭开牠的外皮呢？
谁能进入牠上下两颚之间呢？
14 谁能打开牠的口呢？
牠的牙齿令人战栗。
15 牠的背有一行一行的鳞甲，
紧紧合闭着，像印得很紧的印章一样。
16 这鳞甲一一相连接，
连气也透不入其间，
17 鳞甲一一互相连合，
互相紧贴，不能分离。
18 牠打的喷嚏闪出光来，
牠的眼睛如同清晨的阳光；
19 有火从牠的口中发出，
火星四射；
20 有烟从牠的鼻孔里冒出来，
像从沸腾的锅中和烧着的芦苇里冒出来一样；
21 牠的气可以点着煤炭，
有火焰从牠的口里喷出来，
22 牠的颈项上存着能力，
惊恐在牠面前跳跃。
23 牠下垂的肌肉紧贴在一起，
牢牢地贴在身上，不能摇动。
24 牠的心坚实如石头，
如下磨石那样坚实。
25 牠一起来，勇士都惊慌，
因惊惶过度举止失措。
26 追上牠的刀剑都没用，
矛枪、标枪、短枪也是这样。
27 牠把铁当作干草，
把铜当作朽木。
28 弓箭不能使牠逃跑，
甩石机弦在牠看来不过是碎秸。
29 棍棒被牠当作碎?，
短枪飕飕之声牠也讥笑。
30 牠的腹下像锐利的瓦片，
牠在泥上碾过如同有利钉的耙犁田一样。
31 牠使深渊沸腾，
牠搅动海洋如在鼎中调制膏油。
32 牠使自己行过的路发出白光，
令人把深渊当作白发老人。
33 在世上没有一样像牠的，
牠是无所惧怕的动物；
34 所有高大的动物，牠都藐视，
牠在一切狂傲的野兽之上作王。”
Iyov 41
Orthodox Jewish Bible
41 Canst thou draw out Leviathan with a khakah (fishhook)? Or tie down his leshon with a cord?
2 (26) Canst thou put a hook into his af (nose)? Or bore his jaw through with a barb?
3 (27) Will he make many tachanunim unto thee? Will he speak soft words unto thee?
4 (28) Will he make a brit (covenant) with thee? Wilt thou take him for an eved olam?
5 (29) Wilt thou play with him as with a pet bird? Or wilt thou leash him for thy na’arot (maidens)?
6 (30) Shall traders barter for him? Shall they divide him among the Kena’anim (Canaanites, merchants)?
7 (31) Canst thou fill his ohr (skin) with harpoons? Or his head with fishing spears?
8 (32) Lay thine hand upon him; remember the milchamah. Thou wilt not do it more.
9 (41:1) See, every tokhelet (expectation) is false; shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?
10 (41:2) None is so foolhardy that dare stir him up. Mi (who) then is able to stand before Me?
11 (41:3) Mi (who) hath given Me, that I must repay him? Whatsoever is under the kol HaShomayim is Mine.
12 (41:4) I will not keep silent about his members, nor his gevurah, nor the grace of his form.
13 (41:5) Mi (who) can remove his outer garment? Or mi (who) can come near him with a double bridle?
14 (41:6) Mi (who) can open the doors of his face? Terror is round about his teeth.
15 (41:7) His scales are his ga’avah (pride), shut up together as with a rigid chotam (seal).
16 (41:8) One is so near to another, that no ruach (air) can pass between them.
17 (41:9) They are joined one to another; they stick together, inseparably.
18 (41:10) By his sneezings ohr flares out, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the shachar.
19 (41:11) Out of his mouth goeth flame, and sparks of eish leap out.
20 (41:12) Out of his nostrils goeth forth smoke, like a seething pot or caldron.
21 (41:13) His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.
22 (41:14) In his neck resideth oz (strength), and terror dances before him.
23 (41:15) The flanks of his basar are joined together; they are firm in themselves, immoveable.
24 (41:16) His lev (chest) is as firm as an even (stone); yea, as hard as the lower millstone.
25 (41:17) When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid; shuddering they retreat.
26 (41:18) The cherev of him that reacheth at him cannot hold—the spear, the dart, nor the harpoon.
27 (41:19) He esteemeth barzel (iron) like straw, and nechoshet as rotten wood.
28 (41:20) The arrow cannot make him flee; sling stones are turned with him into stubble.
29 (41:21) Clubs are counted as straw; he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.
30 (41:22) Sharp shards are his under parts; he leaveth a trail in the mud like a threshing sledge.
31 (41:23) He maketh the deep to boil like a pot; he stirreth the yam like a pot of ointment.
32 (41:24) He maketh a wake to shine after him; one would think the deep to be white hair.
33 (41:25) Upon earth there is not his equal, who is created without fear.
34 (41:26) He beholdeth all things lofty; he is a melech over every proud beast.
