约伯记 第 26 章

1约伯回答说：

1But Job answered and said,

2无能的人蒙你何等的帮助！ 膀臂无力的人蒙你何等的拯救！

2How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?

3无智慧的人蒙你何等的指教！ 你向他多显大知识！

3How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

4你向谁发出言语来？ 谁的灵从你而出？

4To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?

5在大水和水族以下的阴魂战兢。

5Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.

6在神面前，阴间显露； 灭亡也不得遮掩。

6Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.

7神将北极铺在空中， 将大地悬在虚空；

7He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.

8将水包在密云中， 云却不破裂；

8He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.

9遮蔽他的宝座， 将云铺在其上；

9He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.

10在水面的周围划出界限， 直到光明黑暗的交界。

10He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.

11天的柱子因他的斥责震动惊奇。

11The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.

12他以能力搅动大海； 他借知识打伤拉哈伯，

12He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.

13借他的灵使天有妆饰； 他的手刺杀快蛇。

13By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.

14看哪，这不过是神工作的些微； 我们所听于他的是何等细微的声音！ 他大能的雷声谁能明透呢？

14Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
