16:1
|
约伯回答说：
|
|
|
Then Job answered and said,
|
|
16:2
|
这样的话我听了许多；你们安慰人，反叫人愁烦。
|
|
|
I have heard many such things: Miserable comforters are ye all.
|
|
16:3
|
虚空的言语有穷尽吗？有什么话惹动你回答呢？
|
|
|
Shall vain words have an end? Or what provoketh thee that thou answerest?
|
|
16:4
|
我也能说你们那样的话；你们若处在我的境遇，我也会联络言语攻击你们，又能向你们摇头。
|
|
|
I also could speak as ye do; If your soul were in my soul`s stead, I could join words together against you, And shake my head at you.
|
|
16:5
|
但我必用口坚固你们，用嘴消解你们的忧愁。
|
|
|
[But] I would strengthen you with my mouth, And the solace of my lips would assuage [your grief].
|
|
16:6
|
我虽说话，忧愁仍不得消解；我虽停住不说，忧愁就离开我吗？
|
|
|
Though I speak, my grief is not assuaged; And though I forbear, what am I eased?
|
|
16:7
|
但现在神使我困倦，使亲友远离我，
|
|
|
But now he hath made me weary: Thou hast made desolate all my company.
|
|
16:8
|
又抓住我，作见证攻击我；我身体的枯瘦也当面见证我的不是。
|
|
|
And thou hast laid fast hold on me, [which] is a witness [against me]: And my leanness riseth up against me, It testifieth to my face.
|
|
16:9
|
主发怒撕裂我，逼迫我，向我切齿；我的敌人怒目看我。
|
|
|
He hath torn me in his wrath, and persecuted me; He hath gnashed upon me with his teeth: Mine adversary sharpeneth his eyes upon me.
|
|
16:10
|
他们向我开口，打我的脸羞辱我，聚会攻击我。
|
|
|
They have gaped upon me with their mouth; They have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully: They gather themselves together against me.
|
|
16:11
|
神把我交给不敬虔的人，把我扔到恶人的手中。
|
|
|
God delivereth me to the ungodly, And casteth me into the hands of the wicked.
|
|
16:12
|
我素来安逸，他折断我，掐住我的颈项，把我摔碎，又立我为他的箭靶子。
|
|
|
I was at ease, and he brake me asunder; Yea, he hath taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces: He hath also set me up for his mark.
|
|
16:13
|
他的弓箭手四面围绕我；他破裂我的肺腑，并不留情，把我的胆倾倒在地上，
|
|
|
His archers compass me round about; He cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; He poureth out my gall upon the ground.
|
|
16:14
|
将我破裂又破裂，如同勇士向我直闯。
|
|
|
He breaketh me with breach upon breach; He runneth upon me like a giant.
|
|
16:15
|
我缝麻布在我皮肤上，把我的角放在尘土中。
|
|
|
I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, And have laid my horn in the dust.
|
|
16:16
|
我的脸因哭泣发紫，在我的眼皮上有死荫。
|
|
|
My face is red with weeping, And on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
|
|
16:17
|
我的手中却无强暴；我的祈祷也是清洁。
|
|
|
Although there is no violence in my hands, And my prayer is pure.
|
|
16:18
|
地啊，不要遮盖我的血！不要阻挡我的哀求！
|
|
|
O earth, cover not thou my blood, And let my cry have no [resting] -place.
|
|
16:19
|
现今，在天有我的见证，在上有我的中保。
|
|
|
Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, And he that voucheth for me is on high.
|
|
16:20
|
我的朋友讥诮我，我却向神眼泪汪汪。
|
|
|
My friends scoff at me: [But] mine eye poureth out tears unto God,
|
|
16:21
|
愿人得与神辩白，如同人与朋友辩白一样；
|
|
|
That he would maintain the right of a man with God, And of a son of man with his neighbor!
|
|
16:22
|
因为再过几年，我必走那往而不返之路。
|
|
|
For when a few years are come, I shall go the way whence I shall not return.
