約伯記 Job

33:1	[hb5]	約伯阿、請聽我的話、留心聽我一切的言語。
	[kjv]	Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words.
	[bbe]	And now, O Job, give ear to my words, and take note of all I say.
33:2	[hb5]	我現在開口、用舌發言。
	[kjv]	Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth.
	[bbe]	See, now my mouth is open, my tongue gives out words.
33:3	[hb5]	我的言語、要發明心中所存的正直．我所知道的、我嘴唇要誠實的說出。
	[kjv]	My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.
	[bbe]	My heart is overflowing with knowledge, my lips say what is true.
33:4	[hb5]	神的靈造我、全能者的氣使我得生。
	[kjv]	The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.
	[bbe]	The spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Ruler of all gives me life.
33:5	[hb5]	你若回答我、就站起來、在我面前陳明。
	[kjv]	If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up.
	[bbe]	If you are able, give me an answer; put your cause in order, and come forward.
33:6	[hb5]	我在　神面前與你一樣、也是用土造成。
	[kjv]	Behold, I am according to thy wish in God's stead: I also am formed out of the clay.
	[bbe]	See, I am the same as you are in the eyes of God; I was cut off from the same bit of wet earth.
33:7	[hb5]	我不用威嚴驚嚇你、也不用勢力重壓你。
	[kjv]	Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee.
	[bbe]	Fear of me will not overcome you, and my hand will not be hard on you.
33:8	[hb5]	你所說的我聽見了、也聽見你的言語、說、
	[kjv]	Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying,
	[bbe]	But you said in my hearing, and your voice came to my ears:
33:9	[hb5]	我是清潔無過的．我是無辜的、在我裡面也沒有罪孽。
	[kjv]	I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.
	[bbe]	I am clean, without sin; I am washed, and there is no evil in me:
33:10	[hb5]	神找機會攻擊我、以我為仇敵、
	[kjv]	Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,
	[bbe]	See, he is looking for something against me; in his eyes I am as one of his haters;
33:11	[hb5]	把我的腳上了木狗、窺察我一切的道路。
	[kjv]	He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths.
	[bbe]	He puts chains on my feet; he is watching all my ways.
33:12	[hb5]	我要回答你說、你這話無理．因　神比世人更大。
	[kjv]	Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
	[bbe]	Truly, in saying this you are wrong; for God is greater than man.
33:13	[hb5]	你為何與他爭論呢、因他的事都不對人解說。
	[kjv]	Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.
	[bbe]	Why do you put forward your cause against him, saying, He gives no answer to any of my words?
33:14	[hb5]	神說、一次、兩次、世人卻不理會。
	[kjv]	For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.
	[bbe]	For God gives his word in one way, even in two, and man is not conscious of it:
33:15	[hb5]	人躺在床上沉睡的時候　神就用夢、和夜間的異象、
	[kjv]	In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
	[bbe]	In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep comes on men, while they take their rest on their beds;
33:16	[hb5]	開通他們的耳朵、將當受的教訓印在他們心上、
	[kjv]	Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,
	[bbe]	Then he makes his secrets clear to men, so that they are full of fear at what they see;
33:17	[hb5]	好叫人不從自己的謀算、不行驕傲的事．〔原文作將驕傲向人隱藏〕
	[kjv]	That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
	[bbe]	In order that man may be turned from his evil works, and that pride may be taken away from him;
33:18	[hb5]	攔阻人不陷於坑裡、不死在刀下。
	[kjv]	He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
	[bbe]	To keep back his soul from the underworld, and his life from destruction.
33:19	[hb5]	人在床上被懲治、骨頭中不住的疼痛．
	[kjv]	He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
	[bbe]	Pain is sent on him as a punishment, while he is on his bed; there is no end to the trouble in his bones;
33:20	[hb5]	以致他的口厭棄食物、心厭惡美味。
	[kjv]	So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.
	[bbe]	He has no desire for food, and his soul is turned away from delicate meat;
33:21	[hb5]	他的肉消瘦、不得再見、先前不見的骨頭、都凸出來。
	[kjv]	His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
	[bbe]	His flesh is so wasted away, that it may not be seen, and his bones. ...
33:22	[hb5]	他的靈魂臨近深坑、他的生命近於滅命的。
	[kjv]	Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.
	[bbe]	And his soul comes near to the underworld, and his life to the angels of death.
33:23	[hb5]	一千天使中、若有一個作傳話的、與　神同在、指示人所當行的事．
	[kjv]	If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:
	[bbe]	If now there may be an angel sent to him, one of the thousands which there are to be between him and God, and to make clear to man what is right for him;
33:24	[hb5]	神就給他開恩、說、救贖他免得下坑．我已經得了贖價。
	[kjv]	Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
	[bbe]	And if he has mercy on him, and says, Let him not go down to the underworld, I have given the price for his life:
33:25	[hb5]	他的肉要比孩童的肉更嫩．他就返老還童。
	[kjv]	His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth:
	[bbe]	Then his flesh becomes young again, and he comes back to the days of his early strength;
33:26	[hb5]	他禱告　神、　神就喜悅他、使他歡呼朝見　神的面．　神又看他為義。
	[kjv]	He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.
	[bbe]	He makes his prayer to God, and he has mercy on him; he sees God's face with cries of joy; he gives news of his righteousness to men;
33:27	[hb5]	他在人前歌唱說、我犯了罪、顛倒是非、這竟與我無益。
	[kjv]	He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
	[bbe]	He makes a song, saying, I did wrong, turning from the straight way, but he did not give me the reward of my sin.
33:28	[hb5]	神救贖我的靈魂免入深坑．我的生命也必見光。
	[kjv]	He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.
	[bbe]	He kept my soul from the underworld, and my life sees the light in full measure.
33:29	[hb5]	神兩次、三次、向人行這一切的事．
	[kjv]	Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,
	[bbe]	Truly, God does all these things to man, twice and three times,
33:30	[hb5]	為要從深坑救回人的靈魂、使他被光照耀與活人一樣。
	[kjv]	To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.
	[bbe]	Keeping back his soul from the underworld, so that he may see the light of life.
33:31	[hb5]	約伯阿、你當側耳聽我的話．不要作聲、等我講說。
	[kjv]	Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak.
	[bbe]	Take note O Job, give ear to me; keep quiet, while I say what is in my mind.
33:32	[hb5]	你若有話說、就可以回答我．你只管說、因我願以你為是。
	[kjv]	If thou hast anything to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee.
	[bbe]	If you have anything to say, give me an answer; for it is my desire that you may be judged free from sin.
33:33	[hb5]	若不然、你就聽我說、你不要作聲、我便將智慧教訓你。
	[kjv]	If not, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom.
	[bbe]	If not, give attention to me, and keep quiet, and I will give you wisdom.
