9:1
ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ιωβ λέγει
Then Job answered,
約伯回答說：
9:2
ἐπ’ ἀληθείας οἶδα ὅτι οὕτως ἐστίν πῶς γὰρ ἔσται δίκαιος βροτὸς παρὰ κυρίῳ
“Truly I know that it is so, but how can man be just with God?
我真知道是這樣； 但人在上帝面前怎能成為義呢？
9:3
ἐὰν γὰρ βούληται κριθῆναι αὐτῷ οὐ μὴ ὑπακούσῃ αὐτῷ ἵνα μὴ ἀντείπῃ πρὸς ἕνα λόγον αὐτοῦ ἐκ χιλίων
If he is pleased to contend with him, he can’t answer him one time in a thousand.
若願意與他爭辯， 千中之一也不能回答。
9:4
σοφὸς γάρ ἐστιν διανοίᾳ κραταιός τε καὶ μέγας τίς σκληρὸς γενόμενος ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ ὑπέμεινεν
God is wise in heart, and mighty in strength. Who has hardened himself against him and prospered?
他心裏有智慧，且大有能力。 誰向上帝剛硬而得亨通呢？
9:5
ὁ παλαιῶν ὄρη καὶ οὐκ οἴδασιν ὁ καταστρέφων αὐτὰ ὀργῇ
He removes the mountains, and they don’t know it, when he overturns them in his anger.
他發怒，把山翻倒挪移， 山並不知覺。
9:6
ὁ σείων τὴν ὑπ’ οὐρανὸν ἐκ θεμελίων οἱ δὲ στῦλοι αὐτῆς σαλεύονται
He shakes the earth out of its place. Its pillars tremble.
他使地震動，離其本位， 地的柱子就搖撼。
9:7
ὁ λέγων τῷ ἡλίῳ καὶ οὐκ ἀνατέλλει κατὰ δὲ ἄστρων κατασφραγίζει
He commands the sun and it doesn’t rise, and seals up the stars.
他吩咐日頭不出來，就不出來， 又封閉眾星。
9:8
ὁ τανύσας τὸν οὐρανὸν μόνος καὶ περιπατῶν ὡς ἐπ’ ἐδάφους ἐπὶ θαλάσσης
He alone stretches out the heavens, and treads on the waves of the sea.
他獨自鋪張蒼天， 步行在海浪之上。
9:9
ὁ ποιῶν Πλειάδα καὶ ἕσπερον καὶ ἀρκτοῦρον καὶ ταμίεια νότου
He makes the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, and the rooms of the south.
他造北斗、參星、昴星， 並南方的密宮；
9:10
ὁ ποιῶν μεγάλα καὶ ἀνεξιχνίαστα ἔνδοξά τε καὶ ἐξαίσια ὧν οὐκ ἔστιν ἀριθμός
He does great things past finding out; yes, marvelous things without number.
他行大事，不可測度， 行奇事，不可勝數。
9:11
ἐὰν ὑπερβῇ με οὐ μὴ ἴδω καὶ ἐὰν παρέλθῃ με οὐδ’ ὧς ἔγνων
Behold, he goes by me, and I don’t see him. He passes on also, but I don’t perceive him.
他從我旁邊經過，我卻不看見； 他在我面前行走，我倒不知覺。
9:12
ἐὰν ἀπαλλάξῃ τίς ἀποστρέψει ἢ τίς ἐρεῖ αὐτῷ τί ἐποίησας
Behold, he snatches away. Who can hinder him? Who will ask him, ‘What are you doing?’
他奪取，誰能阻擋？ 誰敢問他：你做甚麼？
9:13
αὐτὸς γὰρ ἀπέστραπται ὀργήν ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ ἐκάμφθησαν κήτη τὰ ὑπ’ οὐρανόν
“God will not withdraw his anger. The helpers of Rahab stoop under him.
上帝必不收回他的怒氣； 扶助拉哈伯的，屈身在他以下。
9:14
ἐὰν δέ μου ὑπακούσηται ἦ διακρινεῖ τὰ ῥήματά μου
How much less will I answer him, and choose my words to argue with him?
既是這樣，我怎敢回答他， 怎敢選擇言語與他辯論呢？
9:15
ἐάν τε γὰρ ὦ δίκαιος οὐκ εἰσακούσεταί μου τοῦ κρίματος αὐτοῦ δεηθήσομαι
Though I were righteous, yet I wouldn’t answer him. I would make supplication to my judge.
我雖有義，也不回答他， 只要向那審判我的懇求。
9:16
ἐάν τε καλέσω καὶ ὑπακούσῃ οὐ πιστεύω ὅτι εἰσακήκοέν μου
If I had called, and he had answered me, yet I wouldn’t believe that he listened to my voice.
我若呼籲，他應允我； 我仍不信他真聽我的聲音。
9:17
μὴ γνόφῳ με ἐκτρίψῃ πολλὰ δέ μου τὰ συντρίμματα πεποίηκεν διὰ κενῆς
For he breaks me with a storm, and multiplies my wounds without cause.
他用暴風折斷我， 無故地加增我的損傷。
9:18
οὐκ ἐᾷ γάρ με ἀναπνεῦσαι ἐνέπλησεν δέ με πικρίας
He will not allow me to catch my breath, but fills me with bitterness.
我就是喘一口氣，他都不容， 倒使我滿心苦惱。
9:19
ὅτι μὲν γὰρ ἰσχύι κρατεῖ τίς οὖν κρίματι αὐτοῦ ἀντιστήσεται
If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If of justice, ‘Who,’ says he, ‘will summon me?’
若論力量，他真有能力！ 若論審判，他說誰能將我傳來呢？
9:20
ἐὰν γὰρ ὦ δίκαιος τὸ στόμα μου ἀσεβήσει ἐάν τε ὦ ἄμεμπτος σκολιὸς ἀποβήσομαι
Though I am righteous, my own mouth will condemn me. Though I am blameless, it will prove me perverse.
我雖有義，自己的口要定我為有罪； 我雖完全，我口必顯我為彎曲。
9:21
εἴτε γὰρ ἠσέβησα οὐκ οἶδα τῇ ψυχῇ πλὴν ὅτι ἀφαιρεῖταί μου ἡ ζωή
I am blameless. I don’t respect myself. I despise my life.
我本完全，不顧自己； 我厭惡我的性命。
9:22
διὸ εἶπον μέγαν καὶ δυνάστην ἀπολλύει ὀργή
“It is all the same. Therefore I say he destroys the blameless and the wicked.
善惡無分，都是一樣； 所以我說，完全人和惡人，他都滅絕。
9:23
ὅτι φαῦλοι ἐν θανάτῳ ἐξαισίῳ ἀλλὰ δίκαιοι καταγελῶνται
If the scourge kills suddenly, he will mock at the trial of the innocent.
若忽然遭殺害之禍， 他必戲笑無辜的人遇難。
9:24
παραδέδονται γὰρ εἰς χεῖρας ἀσεβοῦς πρόσωπα κριτῶν αὐτῆς συγκαλύπτει εἰ δὲ μὴ αὐτός τίς ἐστιν
The earth is given into the hand of the wicked. He covers the faces of its judges. If not he, then who is it?
世界交在惡人手中； 蒙蔽世界審判官的臉， 若不是他，是誰呢？
9:25
ὁ δὲ βίος μού ἐστιν ἐλαφρότερος δρομέως ἀπέδρασαν καὶ οὐκ εἴδοσαν
“Now my days are swifter than a runner. They flee away. They see no good.
我的日子比跑信的更快， 急速過去，不見福樂。
9:26
ἦ καὶ ἔστιν ναυσὶν ἴχνος ὁδοῦ ἢ ἀετοῦ πετομένου ζητοῦντος βοράν
They have passed away as the swift ships, as the eagle that swoops on the prey.
我的日子過去如快船， 如急落抓食的鷹。
9:27
ἐάν τε γὰρ εἴπω ἐπιλήσομαι λαλῶν συγκύψας τῷ προσώπῳ στενάξω
If I say, ‘I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face, and cheer up,’
我若說：我要忘記我的哀情， 除去我的愁容，心中暢快；
9:28
σείομαι πᾶσιν τοῖς μέλεσιν οἶδα γὰρ ὅτι οὐκ ἀθῷόν με ἐάσεις
I am afraid of all my sorrows. I know that you will not hold me innocent.
我因愁苦而懼怕， 知道你必不以我為無辜。
9:29
ἐπειδὴ δέ εἰμι ἀσεβής διὰ τί οὐκ ἀπέθανον
I will be condemned. Why then do I labor in vain?
我必被你定為有罪， 我何必徒然勞苦呢？
9:30
ἐὰν γὰρ ἀπολούσωμαι χιόνι καὶ ἀποκαθάρωμαι χερσὶν καθαραῖς
If I wash myself with snow, and cleanse my hands with lye,
我若用雪水洗身， 用鹼潔淨我的手，
9:31
ἱκανῶς ἐν ῥύπῳ με ἔβαψας ἐβδελύξατο δέ με ἡ στολή
yet you will plunge me in the ditch. My own clothes will abhor me.
你還要扔我在坑裏， 我的衣服都憎惡我。
9:32
οὐ γὰρ εἶ ἄνθρωπος κατ’ ἐμέ ᾧ ἀντικρινοῦμαι ἵνα ἔλθωμεν ὁμοθυμαδὸν εἰς κρίσιν
For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, that we should come together in judgment.
他本不像我是人，使我可以回答他， 又使我們可以同聽審判。
9:33
εἴθε ἦν ὁ μεσίτης ἡμῶν καὶ ἐλέγχων καὶ διακούων ἀνὰ μέσον ἀμφοτέρων
There is no umpire between us, that might lay his hand on us both.
我們中間沒有聽訟的人 可以向我們兩造按手。
9:34
ἀπαλλαξάτω ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ τὴν ῥάβδον ὁ δὲ φόβος αὐτοῦ μή με στροβείτω
Let him take his rod away from me. Let his terror not make me afraid;
願他把杖離開我， 不使驚惶威嚇我。
9:35
καὶ οὐ μὴ φοβηθῶ ἀλλὰ λαλήσω οὐ γὰρ οὕτω συνεπίσταμαι
then I would speak, and not fear him, for I am not so in myself.
我就說話，也不懼怕他， 現在我卻不是那樣。
