| 约伯记-Job 第 23 章 |
| 23:1 | 约伯回答说， Then Job answered and said, |
| 23:2 | 今日我的哀诉还是悲苦；我虽唉哼，所受的责打仍然沉重。 Today also my complaint is bitter; My stroke is heavy because of my groaning. |
| 23:3 | 惟愿我知道在那里可以寻见神，使我可以到祂的座前！ Oh that I knew where I might find Him, That I might come to His seat! |
| 23:4 | 我要在祂面前将我的案件陈明，满口辩白。 I would present my cause in order before Him, And I would fill my mouth with arguments. |
| 23:5 | 我必知道祂回答我的言语，明白祂向我所说的话。 I would know the words which He would answer me, And I would understand what He would speak to me. |
| 23:6 | 祂岂用大能与我争辩么？必不这样，祂必理会我。 Would He contend with me in the greatness of His power? No; but He would give heed to me. |
| 23:7 | 在祂那里，正直人可以与祂辩论；这样，我必永远脱离那审判我的。 There the upright man can argue with Him; So I would be delivered forever from my Judge. |
| 23:8 | 看哪，我往前行，祂不在那里；往后走，也看不见祂； Behold, I go forward, but He is not there; And backward, but I do not perceive Him; |
| 23:9 | 往左边，祂在那里行事，我不能看到；祂在右边隐藏，我也不能见祂。 To the left, where He acts, but I cannot look on Him; He hides Himself on the right, so I cannot see Him. |
| 23:10 | 然而祂知道我所行的路；祂试炼我之后，我必显出如金子。 But He knows the way that I take; Should He try me, I would come forth as gold. |
| 23:11 | 我脚紧随祂的步履；我谨守祂的道路，并不偏离。 My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and have not turned aside. |
| 23:12 | 祂嘴唇的命令，我未曾离弃；我珍藏祂口中的言语，过于派定给我的饮食。 As for the commandment of His lips, I have not turned back from it; I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my apportioned food. |
| 23:13 | 只是祂的心意始终如一，谁能使祂转意呢？祂魂里所愿的，就行出来。 But He is of one mind, and who can turn Him? And what His soul desires, that will He do. |
| 23:14 | 祂向我所派定的，祂必作成；这类的事，祂还有许多。 For He performs what has been appointed to me, And many such things are with Him. |
| 23:15 | 所以我在祂面前惊惶；我思念这事，便惧怕祂。 Therefore I am terrified at His presence; I consider and am in dread of Him. |
| 23:16 | 神使我心怯，全能者使我惊惶； So God has made my heart faint, And the Almighty has terrified me; |
| 23:17 | 因为我虽面临黑暗，却没有被剪除，祂没有使我的脸遮蔽不见幽暗。 Because I was not cut off before the darkness, Nor did He cover the deep darkness from my face. |
