约伯记 39
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
以禽兽之性诘约伯
39 “山岩间的野山羊几时生产,你知道吗?母鹿下犊之期,你能察定吗? 2 它们怀胎的月数,你能数算吗?它们几时生产,你能晓得吗? 3 它们屈身,将子生下,就除掉疼痛。 4 这子渐渐肥壮,在荒野长大,去而不回。
5 “谁放野驴出去自由?谁解开快驴的绳索? 6 我使旷野做它的住处,使咸地当它的居所。 7 它嗤笑城内的喧嚷,不听赶牲口的喝声。 8 遍山是它的草场,它寻找各样青绿之物。 9 野牛岂肯服侍你?岂肯住在你的槽旁? 10 你岂能用套绳将野牛笼在犁沟之间?它岂肯随你耙山谷之地? 11 岂可因它的力大就倚靠它?岂可把你的工交给它做吗? 12 岂可信靠它把你的粮食运到家,又收聚你禾场上的谷吗?
13 “鸵鸟的翅膀欢然搧展,岂是显慈爱的翎毛和羽毛吗? 14 因它把蛋留在地上,在尘土中使得温暖, 15 却想不到被脚踹碎,或被野兽践踏。 16 它忍心待雏,似乎不是自己的;虽然徒受劳苦,也不为雏惧怕。 17 因为神使它没有智慧,也未将悟性赐给它。 18 它几时挺身展开翅膀,就嗤笑马和骑马的人。
19 “马的大力是你所赐的吗?它颈项上挓挲的鬃是你给它披上的吗? 20 是你叫它跳跃像蝗虫吗?它喷气之威使人惊惶。 21 它在谷中刨地,自喜其力,它出去迎接佩带兵器的人。 22 它嗤笑可怕的事并不惊惶,也不因刀剑退回。 23 箭袋和发亮的枪并短枪,在它身上铮铮有声。 24 它发猛烈的怒气将地吞下,一听角声就不耐站立。 25 角每发声,它说‘呵哈’,它从远处闻着战气,又听见军长大发雷声和兵丁呐喊。
26 “鹰雀飞翔,展开翅膀一直向南,岂是借你的智慧吗? 27 大鹰上腾在高处搭窝,岂是听你的吩咐吗? 28 它住在山岩,以山峰和坚固之所为家, 29 从那里窥看食物,眼睛远远观望。 30 它的雏也咂血;被杀的人在哪里,它也在哪里。”
Job 39
King James Version
39 Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?
2 Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?
3 They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows.
4 Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not unto them.
5 Who hath sent out the wild ass free? or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass?
6 Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwellings.
7 He scorneth the multitude of the city, neither regardeth he the crying of the driver.
8 The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing.
9 Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?
10 Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
11 Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?
12 Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?
13 Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?
14 Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
15 And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
16 She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not her's: her labour is in vain without fear;
17 Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
18 What time she lifteth up herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider.
19 Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder?
20 Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils is terrible.
21 He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men.
22 He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from the sword.
23 The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering spear and the shield.
24 He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.
25 He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
26 Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south?
27 Doth the eagle mount up at thy command, and make her nest on high?
28 She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the strong place.
29 From thence she seeketh the prey, and her eyes behold afar off.
30 Her young ones also suck up blood: and where the slain are, there is she.
Job 39
New International Version
39 “Do you know when the mountain goats(A) give birth?
Do you watch when the doe bears her fawn?(B)
2 Do you count the months till they bear?
Do you know the time they give birth?(C)
3 They crouch down and bring forth their young;
their labor pains are ended.
4 Their young thrive and grow strong in the wilds;
they leave and do not return.
5 “Who let the wild donkey(D) go free?
Who untied its ropes?
6 I gave it the wasteland(E) as its home,
the salt flats(F) as its habitat.(G)
7 It laughs(H) at the commotion in the town;
it does not hear a driver’s shout.(I)
8 It ranges the hills(J) for its pasture
and searches for any green thing.
9 “Will the wild ox(K) consent to serve you?(L)
Will it stay by your manger(M) at night?
10 Can you hold it to the furrow with a harness?(N)
Will it till the valleys behind you?
11 Will you rely on it for its great strength?(O)
Will you leave your heavy work to it?
12 Can you trust it to haul in your grain
and bring it to your threshing floor?
13 “The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully,
though they cannot compare
with the wings and feathers of the stork.(P)
14 She lays her eggs on the ground
and lets them warm in the sand,
15 unmindful that a foot may crush them,
that some wild animal may trample them.(Q)
16 She treats her young harshly,(R) as if they were not hers;
she cares not that her labor was in vain,
17 for God did not endow her with wisdom
or give her a share of good sense.(S)
18 Yet when she spreads her feathers to run,
she laughs(T) at horse and rider.
19 “Do you give the horse its strength(U)
or clothe its neck with a flowing mane?
20 Do you make it leap like a locust,(V)
striking terror(W) with its proud snorting?(X)
21 It paws fiercely, rejoicing in its strength,(Y)
and charges into the fray.(Z)
22 It laughs(AA) at fear, afraid of nothing;
it does not shy away from the sword.
23 The quiver(AB) rattles against its side,
along with the flashing spear(AC) and lance.
24 In frenzied excitement it eats up the ground;
it cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds.(AD)
25 At the blast of the trumpet(AE) it snorts, ‘Aha!’
It catches the scent of battle from afar,
the shout of commanders and the battle cry.(AF)
26 “Does the hawk take flight by your wisdom
and spread its wings toward the south?(AG)
27 Does the eagle soar at your command
and build its nest on high?(AH)
28 It dwells on a cliff and stays there at night;
a rocky crag(AI) is its stronghold.
29 From there it looks for food;(AJ)
its eyes detect it from afar.
30 Its young ones feast on blood,
and where the slain are, there it is.”(AK)
