22:1
Respondens autem Eliphaz Themanites, dixit :
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,
提幔人以利法回答說：
22:2
Numquid Deo potest comparari homo, etiam cum perfectae fuerit scientiae ?
“Can a man be profitable to God? Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself.
人豈能使上帝有益呢？ 智慧人但能有益於己。
22:3
Quid prodest Deo, si justus fueris ? aut quid ei confers, si immaculata fuerit via tua ?
Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous? Or does it benefit him that you make your ways perfect?
你為人公義，豈叫全能者喜悅呢？ 你行為完全，豈能使他得利呢？
22:4
Numquid timens arguet te, et veniet tecum in judicium,
Is it for your piety that he reproves you, that he enters with you into judgment?
豈是因你敬畏他 就責備你、審判你嗎？
22:5
et non propter malitiam tuam plurimam, et infinitas iniquitates tuas ?
Isn’t your wickedness great? Neither is there any end to your iniquities.
你的罪惡豈不是大嗎？ 你的罪孽也沒有窮盡；

Abstulisti enim pignus fratrum tuorum sine causa, et nudos spoliasti vestibus.
For you have taken pledges from your brother for nothing, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
因你無故強取弟兄的物為當頭， 剝去貧寒人的衣服。
22:7
Aquam lasso non dedisti, et esurienti subtraxisti panem.
You haven’t given water to the weary to drink, and you have withheld bread from the hungry.
困乏的人，你沒有給他水喝； 飢餓的人，你沒有給他食物。
22:8
In fortitudine brachii tui possidebas terram, et potentissimus obtinebas eam.
But as for the mighty man, he had the earth. The honorable man, he lived in it.
有能力的人就得地土； 尊貴的人也住在其中。
22:9
Viduas dimisisti vacuas, et lacertos pupillorum comminuisti.
You have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
你打發寡婦空手回去， 折斷孤兒的膀臂。
22:10
Propterea circumdatus es laqueis, et conturbat te formido subita.
Therefore snares are around you. Sudden fear troubles you,
因此，有網羅環繞你， 有恐懼忽然使你驚惶；
22:11
Et putabas te tenebras non visurum, et impetu aquarum inundantium non oppressum iri ?
or darkness, so that you can not see, and floods of waters cover you.
或有黑暗蒙蔽你， 並有洪水淹沒你。
22:12
an non cogitas quod Deus excelsior caelo sit, et super stellarum verticem sublimetur ?
“Isn’t God in the heights of heaven? See the height of the stars, how high they are!
上帝豈不是在高天嗎？ 你看星宿何其高呢！

Et dicis : Quid enim novit Deus ? et quasi per caliginem judicat.
You say, ‘What does God know? Can he judge through the thick darkness?

Nubes latibulum ejus, nec nostra considerat, et circa cardines caeli perambulat.
Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he doesn’t see. He walks on the vault of the sky.’
密雲將他遮蓋，使他不能看見； 他周遊穹蒼。
22:15
Numquid semitam saeculorum custodire cupis, quam calcaverunt viri iniqui,
Will you keep the old way, which wicked men have trodden,
你要依從上古的道嗎？ 這道是惡人所行的。
22:16
qui sublati sunt ante tempus suum, et fluvius subvertit fundamentum eorum ?
who were snatched away before their time, whose foundation was poured out as a stream,
他們未到死期，忽然除滅； 根基毀壞，好像被江河沖去。
22:17
Qui dicebant Deo : Recede a nobis : et quasi nihil posset facere Omnipotens, aestimabant eum,
who said to God, ‘Depart from us!’ and, ‘What can the Almighty do for us?’
他們向上帝說：離開我們吧！ 又說：全能者能把我們怎麼樣呢？
22:18
cum ille implesset domos eorum bonis : quorum sententia procul sit a me.
Yet he filled their houses with good things, but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
哪知上帝以美物充滿他們的房屋； 但惡人所謀定的離我好遠。
22:19
Videbunt justi, et laetabuntur, et innocens subsannabit eos :
The righteous see it, and are glad. The innocent ridicule them,
義人看見他們的結局就歡喜； 無辜的人嗤笑他們，
22:20
nonne succisa est erectio eorum ? et reliquias eorum devoravit ignis ?
saying, ‘Surely those who rose up against us are cut off. The fire has consumed their remnant.’
說：那起來攻擊我們的果然被剪除， 其餘的都被火燒滅。

Please receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart.

Si reversus fueris ad Omnipotentem, aedificaberis, et longe facies iniquitatem a tabernaculo tuo.
If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up, if you put away unrighteousness far from your tents.
你若歸向全能者，從你帳棚中遠除不義， 就必得建立。

Dabit pro terra silicem, et pro silice torrentes aureos.
Lay your treasure in the dust, the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks.
要將你的珍寶丟在塵土裏， 將俄斐的黃金丟在溪河石頭之間；
