约伯记 26
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
约伯的回答
26 约伯回答说:
2 “你真是帮了软弱者的大忙!
救了臂膀无力的人!
3 无智慧的人真多亏你的指教!
承蒙你的真知灼见!
4 谁帮你想出这些点子?
谁的灵在借着你发言?
5 “阴魂和水族在水底战抖,
6 阴间在祂面前裸露,
冥府毫无遮掩。
7 祂将北极铺在空中,
将地悬在虚无中;
8 祂将水卷在密云中,
云负重却不裂开。
9 祂遮盖自己的宝座[a],
把云彩铺在上面。
10 祂在海面上画出地平线,
作为光明与黑暗的交界。
11 祂的斥责使天柱震动惊骇,
12 祂的能力使大海平静,
祂运用智慧击碎海怪。
13 祂吹散天上的阴霾,
挥手刺穿逃跑的蛇。
14 看啊,这不过是祂作为的一斑,
是我们听到的少许回音!
谁能领悟祂的雷霆万钧?”

Job 26
English Standard Version
Job Replies: God's Majesty Is Unsearchable
26 Then Job answered and said:
2 “How you have (A)helped him who has no power!
How you have saved (B)the arm that has no strength!
3 How you have (C)counseled him who has no wisdom,
and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
4 With whose help have you uttered words,
and whose breath (D)has come out from you?
5 The (E)dead tremble
under the waters and their inhabitants.
6 Sheol is (F)naked before God,[a]
and (G)Abaddon has no covering.
7 He (H)stretches out the north over (I)the void
and hangs the earth on nothing.
8 He (J)binds up the waters in his thick clouds,
and the cloud is not split open under them.
9 He covers the face of the full moon[b]
and (K)spreads over it his cloud.
10 He has inscribed (L)a circle on the face of the waters
at the boundary between light and darkness.
11 (M)The pillars of heaven tremble
and are astounded at his (N)rebuke.
12 By his power he (O)stilled the sea;
by his understanding he shattered (P)Rahab.
13 (Q)By his wind the heavens were made fair;
his hand pierced (R)the fleeing serpent.
14 Behold, these are but the outskirts of his (S)ways,
and how small (T)a whisper do we hear of him!
But the thunder of his power who can understand?”
Job 26
King James Version
26 But Job answered and said,
2 How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?
3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
6 Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.
13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
14 Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
