约伯记 11
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
琐法首次发言指责约伯自义
11 拿玛人琐法回答说:
2 “这许多的话怎可不回答,
多嘴多舌的人怎能算为义呢?
3 你胡言乱语可使人不作声吗?
你嘲笑的时候,无人责备吗?
4 你说:‘我的道理纯全,
我在你眼前洁净。’
5 但愿 神说话,
愿他开口跟你说话,
6 把智慧的奥秘向你显明,
因为真的智慧有两面。
你当知道 神已忘记了你一部分的罪孽。
神洞悉人的罪
7 神高深莫测之事你怎能查出呢?
全能者的终极你怎能洞悉呢?
8 他的智慧高于诸天,你能作甚么呢?
比阴间还深,你怎能识透?
9 他的智慧比地长,比海宽。
10 他若过来把人囚禁,
召人受审,谁能阻止他呢?
11 因为他认识虚谎的人,
他看见欺诈,怎能不鉴察?
12 虚妄的人悟出慧心,
就像野驴生子为人。
劝约伯悔改离罪
13 你若心里归向他,
又向他伸手祷告;
14 你若远远地除掉你手里的欺诈,
不让不义居在你的帐棚里;
15 那么你必仰面,毫无愧色;
你也必坚定稳妥,无所惧怕。
16 你必忘记你的苦楚,
回忆好象逝去的流水,
17 你们的人生必明亮如正午,
虽然黑暗仍像早晨。
18 因为有指望,你必安稳,
你必四处巡查,安然睡觉。
19 你躺卧,不受惊吓,
必有很多人求你的情面。
20 但恶人的眼目必昏花,
逃亡之路也必断绝,
他们的指望就是最后的一口气。”
Job 11
English Standard Version
Zophar Speaks: You Deserve Worse
11 Then (A)Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:
2 “Should (B)a multitude of words go unanswered,
and a man full of talk be judged right?
3 Should your babble silence men,
and when you mock, shall no one shame you?
4 For (C)you say, ‘My (D)doctrine is pure,
and I am clean in God's[a] eyes.’
5 But oh, that God would speak
and open his lips to you,
6 and that he would tell you the secrets of wisdom!
For he is manifold in (E)understanding.[b]
Know then that God (F)exacts of you less than your guilt deserves.
7 (G)“Can you find out the deep things of God?
Can you find out the limit of the Almighty?
8 It is (H)higher than heaven[c]—what can you do?
Deeper than Sheol—what can you know?
9 Its measure is longer than the earth
and broader than the sea.
10 If he (I)passes through and (J)imprisons
and summons the court, who can (K)turn him back?
11 For he knows (L)worthless men;
when he sees iniquity, will he not consider it?
12 But a stupid man will get understanding
when (M)a wild donkey's colt is (N)born a man!
13 “If you (O)prepare your heart,
you will (P)stretch out your hands toward him.
14 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away,
and let not injustice dwell in your tents.
15 Surely then you will (Q)lift up your face without (R)blemish;
you will be secure and will not fear.
16 You will (S)forget your misery;
you will remember it as waters that have passed away.
17 And your life will be (T)brighter than the noonday;
its darkness will be like the morning.
18 And you will feel secure, because there is hope;
you will look around and (U)take your rest in security.
19 You will (V)lie down, and none will make you afraid;
many will (W)court your favor.
20 But (X)the eyes of the wicked will fail;
all way of escape will be lost to them,
and their hope is (Y)to breathe their last.”

瑣法的回答
11 拿瑪人瑣法回答說:
2 「難道滔滔不絕就無人反駁?
難道嘮嘮叨叨就證明有理?
3 你喋喋不休,人們豈能緘默不言?
你嘲笑譏諷,豈不該有人使你羞愧?
4 你自以為信仰純全,
在上帝眼中清白。
5 唯願上帝發言,
開口駁斥你,
6 告訴你智慧的奧秘,
因為真智慧深奧難懂。
要知道,上帝對你的懲罰比你該受的還輕。
7 「你能測度上帝的深奧,
探索全能者的極限嗎?
8 那可比諸天還高,你能做什麼?
那可比陰間還深,你能知道什麼?
9 那可比大地還寬廣,
比海洋還遼闊。
10 祂若來囚禁你,
開庭審判,
誰能阻攔?
11 祂洞悉詭詐之人,
看見罪惡,
豈會不理?
12 愚蠢人若能變得聰明,
野驢駒也可生成人樣。
13 「你若把心安正,
向祂舉手禱告;
14 你若除去自己的罪惡,
不容帳篷裡有任何不義,
15 就必能無愧地仰起臉,
站立得穩,無所畏懼。
16 你必忘記自己的苦楚,
它從你記憶中如流水逝去。
17 你的人生將比正午還光明,
生命中的黑暗也必像黎明。
18 你必充滿盼望,感到安穩,
你必得到保護,安然入睡。
19 你睡覺時必無人驚擾,
許多人必求你施恩。
20 但惡人必眼目失明,無路可逃,
他們的指望只有死亡。」
Job 11
New International Version
Zophar
11 Then Zophar the Naamathite(A) replied:
2 “Are all these words to go unanswered?(B)
Is this talker to be vindicated?(C)
3 Will your idle talk(D) reduce others to silence?
Will no one rebuke you when you mock?(E)
4 You say to God, ‘My beliefs are flawless(F)
and I am pure(G) in your sight.’
5 Oh, how I wish that God would speak,(H)
that he would open his lips against you
6 and disclose to you the secrets of wisdom,(I)
for true wisdom has two sides.
Know this: God has even forgotten some of your sin.(J)
7 “Can you fathom(K) the mysteries of God?
Can you probe the limits of the Almighty?
8 They are higher(L) than the heavens(M) above—what can you do?
They are deeper than the depths below(N)—what can you know?(O)
9 Their measure(P) is longer than the earth
and wider than the sea.(Q)
10 “If he comes along and confines you in prison
and convenes a court, who can oppose him?(R)
11 Surely he recognizes deceivers;
and when he sees evil, does he not take note?(S)
12 But the witless can no more become wise
than a wild donkey’s colt(T) can be born human.[a](U)
13 “Yet if you devote your heart(V) to him
and stretch out your hands(W) to him,(X)
14 if you put away(Y) the sin that is in your hand
and allow no evil(Z) to dwell in your tent,(AA)
15 then, free of fault, you will lift up your face;(AB)
you will stand firm(AC) and without fear.(AD)
16 You will surely forget your trouble,(AE)
recalling it only as waters gone by.(AF)
17 Life will be brighter than noonday,(AG)
and darkness will become like morning.(AH)
18 You will be secure, because there is hope;
you will look about you and take your rest(AI) in safety.(AJ)
19 You will lie down, with no one to make you afraid,(AK)
and many will court your favor.(AL)
20 But the eyes of the wicked will fail,(AM)
and escape will elude them;(AN)
their hope will become a dying gasp.”(AO)
