12:1
ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ιωβ λέγει
Then Job answered,
約伯回答說：
12:2
εἶτα ὑμεῖς ἐστε ἄνθρωποι ἦ μεθ’ ὑμῶν τελευτήσει σοφία
“No doubt, but you are the people, and wisdom will die with you.
你們真是子民哪， 你們死亡，智慧也就滅沒了。
12:3
κἀμοὶ μὲν καρδία καθ’ ὑμᾶς ἐστιν
But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you. Yes, who doesn’t know such things as these?
但我也有聰明，與你們一樣， 並非不及你們。 你們所說的，誰不知道呢？
12:4
δίκαιος γὰρ ἀνὴρ καὶ ἄμεμπτος ἐγενήθη εἰς χλεύασμα
I am like one who is a joke to his neighbor, I, who called on God, and he answered. The just, the blameless man is a joke.
我這求告上帝、蒙他應允的人 竟成了朋友所譏笑的； 公義完全人竟受了人的譏笑。
12:5
εἰς χρόνον γὰρ τακτὸν ἡτοίμαστο πεσεῖν ὑπὸ ἄλλους οἴκους τε αὐτοῦ ἐκπορθεῖσθαι ὑπὸ ἀνόμων
In the thought of him who is at ease there is contempt for misfortune. It is ready for them whose foot slips.
安逸的人心裏藐視災禍； 這災禍常常等待滑腳的人。
12:6
οὐ μὴν δὲ ἀλλὰ μηδεὶς πεποιθέτω πονηρὸς ὢν ἀθῷος ἔσεσθαι ὅσοι παροργίζουσιν τὸν κύριον ὡς οὐχὶ καὶ ἔτασις αὐτῶν ἔσται
The tents of robbers prosper. Those who provoke God are secure, who carry their god in their hands.
強盜的帳棚興旺， 惹上帝的人穩固， 上帝多將財物送到他們手中。
12:7
ἀλλὰ δὴ ἐπερώτησον τετράποδα ἐάν σοι εἴπωσιν πετεινὰ δὲ οὐρανοῦ ἐάν σοι ἀπαγγείλωσιν
“But ask the animals now, and they will teach you; the birds of the sky, and they will tell you.
你且問走獸，走獸必指教你； 又問空中的飛鳥，飛鳥必告訴你；
12:8
ἐκδιήγησαι δὲ γῇ ἐάν σοι φράσῃ καὶ ἐξηγήσονταί σοι οἱ ἰχθύες τῆς θαλάσσης
Or speak to the earth, and it will teach you. The fish of the sea will declare to you.
或與地說話，地必指教你； 海中的魚也必向你說明。
12:9
τίς οὐκ ἔγνω ἐν πᾶσι τούτοις ὅτι χεὶρ κυρίου ἐποίησεν ταῦτα
Who doesn’t know that in all these, Yahweh’s hand has done this,
看這一切， 誰不知道是耶和華的手做成的呢？
12:10
εἰ μὴ ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ψυχὴ πάντων τῶν ζώντων καὶ πνεῦμα παντὸς ἀνθρώπου
in whose hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind?
凡活物的生命和人類的氣息都在他手中。
12:11
οὖς μὲν γὰρ ῥήματα διακρίνει λάρυγξ δὲ σῖτα γεύεται
Doesn’t the ear try words, even as the palate tastes its food?
耳朵豈不試驗言語， 正如上膛嘗食物嗎？

ἐν πολλῷ χρόνῳ σοφία ἐν δὲ πολλῷ βίῳ ἐπιστήμη
With aged men is wisdom, in length of days understanding.
年老的有智慧； 壽高的有知識。

παρ’ αὐτῷ σοφία καὶ δύναμις αὐτῷ βουλὴ καὶ σύνεσις

ἐὰν κωλύσῃ τὸ ὥδωρ ξηρανεῖ τὴν γῆν ἐὰν δὲ ἐπαφῇ ἀπώλεσεν αὐτὴν καταστρέψας
