约伯记 27
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
約伯力言自己行義不渝
27 約伯繼續他的講論,說:
2 “永活的 神奪去我的公理,
全能者使我心中痛苦。
3 只要我的生命還在我裡面,
神賜我的氣息還在我鼻孔裡,
4 我的嘴唇決不說不義之言,
我的舌頭也不講詭詐之語。
5 我絕對不以你們為是,
我到死也不放棄我的純全;
6 我堅守我的義決不放鬆,
我一生的日子我的心必不責備我。
7 願我的敵人如惡人一般,
願那起來攻擊我的像不義的人一樣。
不敬虔的人沒有指望
8 不敬虔的人被剪除,
神奪去他性命的時候還有甚麼指望呢?
9 患難臨到他身上的時候,
神會垂聽他的哀求嗎?
10 他以全能者為樂,
時時求告 神嗎?
11 我藉 神的能力教導你們,
我不向你們隱瞞全能者的事。
12 你們都親自見過,
你們為甚麼成了這麼虛妄呢?
13 這是惡人從 神所得的分,
強暴的人從全能者所得的業。
14 即使他的兒女增多,還是被刀劍所殺,
他的子孫也必永不得飽食;
15 他的遺族在死人中埋葬,
他的寡婦也都不哀哭。
16 他雖然堆積銀子如塵沙,
預備衣服如泥土,
17 他儘管預備,義人卻要穿上;
他的銀子,無辜的人也要瓜分。
18 他建造房屋如蜘蛛結網,
又如守望者所搭的棚。
19 他雖然躺下的時候富有,卻不再這樣;
他一張開雙眼,財富就不在了。
20 驚恐必如眾水追上他,
暴風在夜間把他颳去。
21 東風把他吹起,他就消逝;
又把他捲起,離開原來的地方。
22 神射擊他,毫不留情,
他甚願快快逃脫 神的手。
23 有人向他拍掌,
發噝聲趕他離開原來的地方。”
Job 27

Job’s Final Word to His Friends
27 And Job continued his discourse:(A)
2 “As surely as God lives, who has denied me justice,(B)
the Almighty,(C) who has made my life bitter,(D)
3 as long as I have life within me,
the breath of God(E) in my nostrils,
4 my lips will not say anything wicked,
and my tongue will not utter lies.(F)
5 I will never admit you are in the right;
till I die, I will not deny my integrity.(G)
6 I will maintain my innocence(H) and never let go of it;
my conscience(I) will not reproach me as long as I live.(J)
7 “May my enemy be like the wicked,(K)
my adversary(L) like the unjust!
8 For what hope have the godless(M) when they are cut off,
when God takes away their life?(N)
9 Does God listen to their cry
when distress comes upon them?(O)
10 Will they find delight in the Almighty?(P)
Will they call on God at all times?
11 “I will teach you about the power of God;
the ways(Q) of the Almighty I will not conceal.(R)
12 You have all seen this yourselves.
Why then this meaningless talk?
13 “Here is the fate God allots to the wicked,
the heritage a ruthless man receives from the Almighty:(S)
14 However many his children,(T) their fate is the sword;(U)
his offspring will never have enough to eat.(V)
15 The plague will bury those who survive him,
and their widows will not weep for them.(W)
16 Though he heaps up silver like dust(X)
and clothes like piles of clay,(Y)
17 what he lays up(Z) the righteous will wear,(AA)
and the innocent will divide his silver.(AB)
18 The house(AC) he builds is like a moth’s cocoon,(AD)
like a hut(AE) made by a watchman.
19 He lies down wealthy, but will do so no more;(AF)
when he opens his eyes, all is gone.(AG)
20 Terrors(AH) overtake him like a flood;(AI)
a tempest snatches him away in the night.(AJ)
21 The east wind(AK) carries him off, and he is gone;(AL)
it sweeps him out of his place.(AM)
22 It hurls itself against him without mercy(AN)
as he flees headlong(AO) from its power.(AP)
23 It claps its hands(AQ) in derision
and hisses him out of his place.”(AR)
Job 27
New King James Version
Job Maintains His Integrity
27 Moreover Job continued his discourse, and said:
2 “As God lives, (A)who has taken away my justice,
And the Almighty, who has made my soul bitter,
3 As long as my breath is in me,
And the breath of God in my nostrils,
4 My lips will not speak wickedness,
Nor my tongue utter deceit.
5 Far be it from me
That I should say you are right;
Till I die (B)I will not put away my integrity from me.
6 My righteousness I (C)hold fast, and will not let it go;
(D)My heart shall not [a]reproach me as long as I live.
7 “May my enemy be like the wicked,
And he who rises up against me like the unrighteous.
8 (E)For what is the hope of the hypocrite,
Though he may gain much,
If God takes away his life?
9 (F)Will God hear his cry
When trouble comes upon him?
10 (G)Will he delight himself in the Almighty?
Will he always call on God?
11 “I will teach you [b]about the hand of God;
What is with the Almighty I will not conceal.
12 Surely all of you have seen it;
Why then do you behave with complete nonsense?
13 “This(H) is the portion of a wicked man with God,
And the heritage of oppressors, received from the Almighty:
14 (I)If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword;
And his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
15 Those who survive him shall be buried in death,
And (J)their[c] widows shall not weep,
16 Though he heaps up silver like dust,
And piles up clothing like clay—
17 He may pile it up, but (K)the just will wear it,
And the innocent will divide the silver.
18 He builds his house like a [d]moth,
(L)Like a [e]booth which a watchman makes.
19 The rich man will lie down,
[f]But not be gathered up;
He opens his eyes,
And he is (M)no more.
20 (N)Terrors overtake him like a flood;
A tempest steals him away in the night.
21 The east wind carries him away, and he is gone;
It sweeps him out of his place.
22 It hurls against him and does not (O)spare;
He flees desperately from its [g]power.
23 Men shall clap their hands at him,
And shall hiss him out of his place.
