< Job 26 >

1 Then Job answered and said:
约伯回答说:
2 How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!
无能的人蒙你何等的帮助! 膀臂无力的人蒙你何等的拯救!
3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
无智慧的人蒙你何等的指教! 你向他多显大知识!
4 With whose help hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
你向谁发出言语来? 谁的灵从你而出?
5 The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.
在大水和水族以下的阴魂战兢。
6 The nether-world is naked before Him, and Destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)
在 神面前,阴间显露; 灭亡也不得遮掩。 (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth over nothing.
神将北极铺在空中, 将大地悬在虚空;
8 He bindeth up the waters in His thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
将水包在密云中, 云却不破裂;
9 He closeth in the face of His throne, and spreadeth His cloud upon it.
遮蔽他的宝座, 将云铺在其上;
10 He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
在水面的周围划出界限, 直到光明黑暗的交界。
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at His rebuke.
天的柱子因他的斥责震动惊奇。
12 He stirreth up the sea with His power, and by His understanding He smiteth through Rahab.
他以能力搅动大海; 他借知识打伤拉哈伯,
13 By His breath the heavens are serene; His hand hath pierced the slant serpent.
借他的灵使天有妆饰; 他的手刺杀快蛇。
14 Lo, these are but the outskirts of His ways; and how small a whisper is heard of Him! But the thunder of His mighty deeds who can understand?
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?
