31：7我的脚步若偏离正路，我的心若随着我的眼目，若有玷污粘在我手上。
If my step hath turned out of the way； and mine heart walked after mine eyes； and if any blot hath cleaved to mine hands；
31：8就愿我所种的有别人吃，我田所产的被拔出来。
Then let me sow； and let another eat； yea； let my offspring be rooted out。
31：9我若受迷惑，向妇人起淫念，在邻舍的门外蹲伏。
If mine heart have been deceived by a woman； or if I have laid wait at my neighbour's door；
31：10就愿我的妻子给别人推磨，别人也与她同室。
Then let my wife grind unto another； and let others bow down upon her。
31：11因为这是大罪，是审判官当罚的罪孽。
For this is an heinous crime； yea； it is an iniquity to be punished by the judges。
31：12这本是火焚烧，直到毁灭，必拔除我所有的家产。
For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction； and would root out all mine increase。
31：13我的仆婢与我争辩的时候，我若藐视不听他们的情节。
If I did despise the cause of my manservant or of my maidservant； when they contended with me；
31：14神兴起，我怎样行呢。他察问，我怎样回答呢。
What then shall I do when God riseth up？ and when he visiteth； what shall I answer him？
31：15造我在腹中的，不也是造他吗。将他与我抟在腹中的，岂不是一位吗。
Did not he that made me in the womb make him？ and did not one fashion us in the womb？
31：16我若不容贫寒人得其所愿，或叫寡妇眼中失望，
If I have withheld the poor from their desire； or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail；
31：17或独自吃我一点食物，孤儿没有与我同吃。
Or have eaten my morsel myself alone； and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof；
31：18（从幼年时孤儿与我同长，好像父子一样。我从出母腹就扶助寡妇）。（扶助原文作引领）
（For from my youth he was brought up with me； as with a father； and I have guided her from my mother's womb；）
31：19我若见人因无衣死亡，或见穷乏人身无遮盖。
If I have seen any perish for want of clothing； or any poor without covering；
31：20我若不使他因我羊的毛得暖，为我祝福。
If his loins have not blessed me； and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep；
31：21我若在城门口见有帮助我的，举手攻击孤儿。
If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless； when I saw my help in the gate：
31：22情愿我的肩头从缺盆骨脱落，我的膀臂从羊矢骨折断。
Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade； and mine arm be broken from the bone。
31：23因神降的灾祸使我恐惧。因他的威严，我不能妄为。
For destruction from God was a terror to me； and by reason of his highness I could not endure。
31：24我若以黄金为指望，对精金说，你是我的倚靠。
If I have made gold my hope； or have said to the fine gold； Thou art my confidence；
31：25我若因财物丰裕，因我手多得资财而欢喜。
If I rejoiced because my wealth was great； and because mine hand had gotten much；
31：26我若见太阳发光，明月行在空中，
If I beheld the sun when it shined； or the moon walking in brightness；
31：27心就暗暗被引诱，口便亲手。
And my heart hath been secretly enticed； or my mouth hath kissed my hand：
31：28这也是审判官当罚的罪孽，又是我背弃在上的神。
This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge： for I should have denied the God that is above。
31：29我若见恨我的遭报就欢喜，见他遭灾便高兴。
If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me； or lifted up myself when evil found him：
31：30（我没有容口犯罪，咒诅他的生命）
Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse to his soul。
31：31若我帐棚的人未尝说，谁不以主人的食物吃饱呢。
If the men of my tabernacle said not； Oh that we had of his flesh！ we cannot be satisfied。
31：32（从来我没有容客旅在街上住宿，却开门迎接行路的人）
The stranger did not lodge in the street： but I opened my doors to the traveller。
31：33我若像亚当（或作别人）遮掩我的过犯，将罪孽藏在怀中。
If I covered my transgressions as Adam； by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom：
31：34因惧怕大众，又因宗族藐视我使我惊恐，以致闭口无言，杜门不出。
Did I fear a great multitude； or did the contempt of families terrify me； that I kept silence； and went not out of the door？
31：35惟愿有一位肯听我。（看哪，在这里有我所划的押，愿全能者回答我）
Oh that one would hear me！ behold； my desire is； that the Almighty would answer me； and that mine adversary had written a book。
31：36愿那敌我者，所写的状词在我这里，我必带在肩上，又绑在头上为冠冕。
Surely I would take it upon my shoulder； and bind it as a crown to me。
31：37我必向他述说我脚步的数目，必如君王进到他面前。
I would declare unto him the number of my steps； as a prince would I go near unto him。
31：38我若夺取田地，这地向我喊冤，犁沟一同哭泣。
If my land cry against me； or that the furrows likewise thereof plain；
31：39我若吃地的出产不给价值，或叫原主丧命。
If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money； or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life：
31：40愿这地长蒺藜代替麦子，长恶草代替大麦。约伯的话说完了。
Let thistles grow instead of wheat； and cockle instead of barley。 The words of Job are ended。
旧约 约伯记（Job） 第 32 章 （ 本篇共有 42 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
32：1于是这三个人，因约伯自以为义就，不再回答他。
So these three men ceased to answer Job； because he was righteous in his own eyes。
32：2那时有布西人，兰族巴拉迦的儿子，以利户向约伯发怒。因约伯自以为义，不以神为义。
Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite； of the kindred of Ram： against Job was his wrath kindled； because he justified himself rather than God。
32：3他又向约伯的三个朋友发怒。因为他们想不出回答的话来，仍以约伯为有罪。
Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled； because they had found no answer； and yet had condemned Job。
32：4以利户要与约伯说话，就等候他们，因为他们比自己年老。
Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken； because they were elder than he。
32：5以利户见这三个人口中无话回答，就怒气发作。
When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men； then his wrath was kindled。
32：6布西人，巴拉迦的儿子，以利户回答说，我年轻，你们老迈。因此我退让，不敢向你们陈说我的意见。
And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said； I am young； and ye are very old； wherefore I was afraid； and durst not shew you mine opinion。
32：7我说，年老的当先说话。寿高的当以智慧教训人。
I said； Days should speak； and multitude of years should teach wisdom。
32：8但在人里面有灵，全能者的气使趟有聪明。
But there is a spirit in man： and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding。
32：9尊贵的不都有智慧。寿高的不都能明白公平。
Great men are not always wise： neither do the aged understand judgment。
32：10因此我说，你们要听我言，我也要陈说我的意见。
Therefore I said； Hearken to me； I also will shew mine opinion。
32：11你们查究所要说的话。那时我等候你们的话，侧耳听你们的辩论。
Behold； I waited for your words； I gave ear to your reasons； whilst ye searched out what to say。
32：12留心听你们。谁知你们中间无一人折服约伯，驳倒他的话。
Yea； I attended unto you； and； behold； there was none of you that convinced Job； or that answered his words：
32：13你们切不可说，我们寻得智慧。神能胜他，人却不能。
Lest ye should say； We have found out wisdom： God thrusteth him down； not man。
32：14约伯没有向我争辩。我也不用你们的话回答他。
Now he hath not directed his words against me： neither will I answer him with your speeches。
32：15他们惊奇不再回答，一言不发。
They were amazed； they answered no more： they left off speaking。
32：16我岂因他们不说话，站住不再回答，仍旧等候呢。
When I had waited； （for they spake not； but stood still； and answered no more；）
32：17我也要回答我的一分话，陈说我的意见。
I said； I will answer also my part； I also will shew mine opinion。
32：18因为我的言语满怀。我里面的灵激动我。
For I am full of matter； the spirit within me constraineth me。
32：19我的胸怀如盛酒之囊，没有出气之缝，又如新皮袋快要破裂。
Behold； my belly is as wine which hath no vent； it is ready to burst like new bottles。
32：20我要说话，使我舒畅。我要开口回答。
I will speak； that I may be refreshed： I will open my lips and answer。
32：21我必不看人的情面，也不奉承人。
Let me not； I pray you； accept any man's person； neither let me give flattering titles unto man。
32：22我不晓得奉承。若奉承，造我的主必快快除灭我。
For I know not to give flattering titles； in so doing my maker would soon take me away。
旧约 约伯记（Job） 第 33 章 （ 本篇共有 42 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
33：1约伯阿，请听我的话，留心听我一切的言语。
Wherefore； Job； I pray thee； hear my speeches； and hearken to all my words。
33：2我现在开口，用舌发言。
Behold； now I have opened my mouth； my tongue hath spoken in my mouth。
33：3我的言语要发明心中所存的正直。我所知道的，我嘴唇要诚实地说出。
My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart： and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly。
33：4神的灵造我，全能者的气使我得生。
The spirit of God hath made me； and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life。
33：5你若回答我，就站起来，在我面前陈明。
If thou canst answer me； set thy words in order before me； stand up。
33：6我在神面前与你一样，也是用土造成。
Behold； I am according to thy wish in God's stead： I also am formed out of the clay。
33：7我不用威严惊吓你，也不用势力重压你。
Behold； my terror shall not make thee afraid； neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee。
33：8你所说的，我听见了，也听见你的言语，说，
Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing； and I have heard the voice of thy words； saying；
33：9我是清洁无过的，我是无辜的。在我里面也没有罪孽。
I am clean without transgression； I am in
