35:1
|
以利户又说：
|
|
|
Moreover Elihu answered and said,
|
|
35:2
|
你以为有理，或以为你的公义胜于神的公义，
|
|
|
Thinkest thou this to be [thy] right, [Or] sayest thou, My righteousness is more than God`s,
|
|
35:3
|
才说这与我有什么益处？我不犯罪比犯罪有什么好处呢？
|
|
|
That thou sayest, What advantage will it be unto thee? [And], What profit shall I have, more than if I had sinned?
|
|
35:4
|
我要回答你和在你这里的朋友。
|
|
|
I will answer thee, And thy companions with thee.
|
|
35:5
|
你要向天观看，瞻望那高于你的穹苍。
|
|
|
Look unto the heavens, and see; And behold the skies, which are higher than thou.
|
|
35:6
|
你若犯罪，能使神受何害呢？你的过犯加增，能使神受何损呢？
|
|
|
If thou hast sinned, what effectest thou against him? And if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?
|
|
35:7
|
你若是公义，还能加增他什么呢？他从你手里还接受什么呢？
|
|
|
If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? Or what receiveth he of thy hand?
|
|
35:8
|
你的过恶或能害你这类的人；你的公义或能叫世人得益处。
|
|
|
Thy wickedness [may hurt] a man as thou art; And thy righteousness [may profit] a son of man.
|
|
35:9
|
人因多受欺压就哀求，因受能者的辖制（原文作膀臂）便求救，
|
|
|
By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry out; They cry for help by reason of the arm of the mighty.
|
|
35:10
|
却无人说：造我的神在那里？他使人夜间歌唱，
|
|
|
But none saith, Where is God my Maker, Who giveth songs in the night,
|
|
35:11
|
教训我们胜于地上的走兽，使我们有聪明胜于空中的飞鸟。
|
|
|
Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, And maketh us wiser than the birds of the heavens?
|
|
35:12
|
他们在那里，因恶人的骄傲呼求，却无人答应。
|
|
|
There they cry, but none giveth answer, Because of the pride of evil men.
|
|
35:13
|
虚妄的呼求，神必不垂听；全能者也必不眷顾。
|
|
|
Surely God will not hear an empty [cry], Neither will the Almighty regard it.
|
|
35:14
|
何况你说，你不得见他；你的案件在他面前，你等候他吧。
|
|
|
How much less when thou sayest thou beholdest him not, The cause is before him, and thou waitest for him!
|
|
35:15
|
但如今因他未曾发怒降罚，也不甚理会狂傲，
|
|
|
But now, because he hath not visited in his anger, Neither doth he greatly regard arrogance;
|
|
35:16
|
所以约伯开口说虚妄的话，多发无知识的言语。
|
|
|
Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vanity; He multiplieth words without knowledge.
