约伯记 Job

5:1	[hgb]	你且呼求，有谁答应你？诸圣者之中，你转向那一位呢？
	[bbe]	Give now a cry for help; is there anyone who will give you an answer? and to which of the holy ones will you make your prayer?
5:2	[hgb]	忿怒害死愚妄人，嫉妒杀死痴迷人。
	[bbe]	For wrath is the cause of death to the foolish, and he who has no wisdom comes to his end through passion.
5:3	[hgb]	我曾见愚妄人扎下根，但我忽然咒诅他的住处。
	[bbe]	I have seen the foolish taking root, but suddenly the curse came on his house.
5:4	[hgb]	他的儿女远离稳妥的地步，在城门口被压，并无人搭救。
	[bbe]	Now his children have no safe place, and they are crushed before the judges, for no one takes up their cause.
5:5	[hgb]	他的庄稼有饥饿的人吃尽了，就是在荆棘里的也抢去了。他的财宝有网罗张口吞灭了。
	[bbe]	Their produce is taken by him who has no food, and their grain goes to the poor, and he who is in need of water gets it from their spring.
5:6	[hgb]	祸患原不是从土中出来。患难也不是从地里发生。
	[bbe]	For evil does not come out of the dust, or trouble out of the earth;
5:7	[hgb]	人生在世必遇患难，如同火星飞腾。
	[bbe]	But trouble is man's fate from birth, as the flames go up from the fire.
5:8	[hgb]	至于我，我必仰望神，把我的事情托付他。
	[bbe]	But as for me, I would make my prayer to God, and I would put my cause before him:
5:9	[hgb]	他行大事不可测度，行奇事不可胜数。
	[bbe]	Who does great things outside our knowledge, wonders without number:
5:10	[hgb]	降雨在地上，赐水于田里。
	[bbe]	Who gives rain on the earth, and sends water on the fields:
5:11	[hgb]	将卑微的安置在高处，将哀痛的举到稳妥之地。
	[bbe]	Lifting up those who are low, and putting the sad in a safe place;
5:12	[hgb]	破坏狡猾人的计谋，使他们所谋的不得成就。
	[bbe]	Who makes the designs of the wise go wrong, so that they are unable to give effect to their purposes.
5:13	[hgb]	他叫有智慧的中了自己的诡计，使狡诈人的计谋速速灭亡。
	[bbe]	He takes the wise in their secret designs, and the purposes of the twisted are cut off suddenly.
5:14	[hgb]	他们白昼遇见黑暗，午间摸索如在夜间。
	[bbe]	In the daytime it becomes dark for them, and in the sunlight they go feeling about as if it was night.
5:15	[hgb]	神拯救穷乏人，脱离他们口中的刀，和强暴人的手。
	[bbe]	But he keeps safe from their sword those who have no father, and the poor from the power of the strong.
5:16	[hgb]	这样，贫寒的人有指望，罪孽之辈必塞口无言。
	[bbe]	So the poor man has hope, and the mouth of the evil-doer is stopped.
5:17	[hgb]	神所惩治的人是有福的。所以你不可轻看全能者的管教。
	[bbe]	Truly, that man is happy who has training from the hand of God: so do not let your heart be shut to the teaching of the Ruler of all.
5:18	[hgb]	因为他打破，又缠裹。他击伤，用手医治。
	[bbe]	For after his punishment he gives comfort, and after wounding, his hands make you well.
5:19	[hgb]	你六次遭难，他必救你。就是七次，灾祸也无法害你。
	[bbe]	He will keep you safe from six troubles, and in seven no evil will come near you.
5:20	[hgb]	在饥荒中，他必救你脱离死亡。在争战中，他必救你脱离刀剑的权力。
	[bbe]	When there is need of food he will keep you from death, and in war from the power of the sword.
5:21	[hgb]	你必被隐藏，不受口舌之害。灾殃临到，你也不惧怕。
	[bbe]	He will keep you safe from the evil tongue; and you will have no fear of wasting when it comes.
5:22	[hgb]	你遇见灾害饥馑，就必嬉笑。地上的野兽，你也不惧怕。
	[bbe]	You will make sport of destruction and need, and will have no fear of the beasts of the earth.
5:23	[hgb]	因为你必与田间的石头立约，田里的野兽也必与你和好。
	[bbe]	For you will be in agreement with the stones of the earth, and the beasts of the field will be at peace with you.
5:24	[hgb]	你必知道你帐棚平安，要查看你的羊圈，一无所失。
	[bbe]	And you will be certain that your tent is at peace, and after looking over your property you will see that nothing is gone.
5:25	[hgb]	也必知道你的后裔将来发达，你的子孙像地上的青草。
	[bbe]	You will be certain that your seed will be great, and your offspring like the plants of the earth.
5:26	[hgb]	你必寿高年迈才归坟墓，好像禾捆到时收藏。
	[bbe]	You will come to your last resting-place in full strength, as the grain is taken up to the crushing-floor in its time.
5:27	[hgb]	这理，我们已经考察，本是如此。你须要听，要知道是与自己有益。
	[bbe]	See, we have made search with care, and it is so; it has come to our ears; see that you take note of it for yourself.
