1 Yēhéhuá yòu duì Yuēbó shuō ,
1
The LORD said to Job:
2 Qiángbiàn de qǐ kĕ yǔ quánnéng zhĕ zhēnglùn ma . yǔ shén biàn bó de kĕyǐ huídá zhèxie ba .
2
“Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct him? Let him who accuses God answer him!”
3 Yúshì , Yuēbó huídá Yēhéhuá shuō ,
3
Then Job answered the LORD:
4 Wǒ shì bēijiàn de . wǒ yòng shénme huídá nǐ ne . zhǐhǎo yòng shǒu wú kǒu .
4
“I am unworthy—how can I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth.
5 Wǒ shuō le yī cì , zaì bù huídá . shuō le liǎng cì , jiù bú zaì shuō .
5
I spoke once, but I have no answer— twice, but I will say no more.”
6 Yúshì , Yēhéhuá cóng xuán fēng zhōng huídá Yuēbó shuō ,
6
Then the LORD spoke to Job out of the storm:
7 Nǐ yào rú yǒng shì shùyào . wǒ wèn nǐ , nǐ kĕyǐ zhǐshì wǒ .
7
“Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me.
8 Nǐ qǐ kĕ feìqì wǒ suǒ nǐ déng de . qǐ kĕ déng wǒ yǒu zuì , hǎo xiǎn zìjǐ wèi yì ma .
8
“Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself?
9 Nǐ yǒu shén nàyàng de bǎngbì ma . nǐ néng xiàng tā fā léi shēng ma .
9
Do you have an arm like God’s, and can your voice thunder like his?
10 Nǐ yào yǐ róngyào zhuāngyán wèi zhuāngshì , yǐ zūnróng wēiyán wèi yīfu .
10
Then adorn yourself with glory and splendor, and clothe yourself in honor and majesty.
11 Yào fāchū nǐ mǎn yì de nùqì , jiàn yīqiè jiāoào de rén , shǐ tā jiàng bēi .
11
Unleash the fury of your wrath, look at all who are proud and bring them low,
12 Jiàn yīqiè jiāoào de rén , jiāng tā zhìfú , bǎ è rén jiàntà zaì bĕn chù .
12
look at all who are proud and humble them, crush the wicked where they stand.
13 Jiāng tāmen yītóng yǐncáng zaì chéntǔ zhōng , bǎ tāmende liǎn méng bì zaì yǐn mì chù .
13
Bury them all in the dust together; shroud their faces in the grave.
14 Wǒ jiù rèn nǐ yòushǒu néng yǐ jiù zìjǐ .
14
Then I myself will admit to you that your own right hand can save you.
15 Nǐ qiĕ guānkàn hé mǎ . wǒ zào nǐ yĕ zào tā . tā chī cǎo yǔ niú yíyàng .
15
“Look at Behemoth, which I made along with you and which feeds on grass like an ox.
16 Tā de qì lì zaì yào jiān , nénglì zaì dù fù de jīn shang .
16
What strength it has in its loins, what power in the muscles of its belly!
17 Tā yáodòng wĕiba rú xiāng bǎi shù . tā dàtuǐ de jīn hùxiāng liánluò .
17
Its tail sways like a cedar; the sinews of its thighs are close-knit.
18 Tā de gútou hǎoxiàng tóng guǎn . tā de zhī tǐ fǎngfú tiĕ gùn .
18
Its bones are tubes of bronze, its limbs like rods of iron.
19 Tā zaì shén suǒ zào de wù zhōng wèi shǒu . chuàngzào tā de gĕi tā dāo jiàn .
19
It ranks first among the works of God, yet its Maker can approach it with his sword.
20 Zhū shān gĕi tā chū shíwù , yĕ shì bǎi shòu yóu wán zhī chù .
20
The hills bring it their produce, and all the wild animals play nearby.
21 Tā fú zaì lián yè zhī xià , wò zaì lúwĕi yǐn mì chù hé shuǐ wā zǐ lǐ .
21
Under the lotus plants it lies, hidden among the reeds in the marsh.
22 Lián yè de yīn liáng zhē bì tā . xī páng de liǔ shù huánrǎo tā .
22
The lotuses conceal it in their shadow; the poplars by the stream surround it.
23 Hé shuǐ fànlàn , tā bù fā zhàn . jiù shì Yuēdànhé de shuǐ zhǎng dào tā kǒu bian , yĕ shì ānrán .
23
A raging river does not alarm it; it is secure, though the Jordan should surge against its mouth.
24 Zaì tā fángbeì de shíhou , shuí néng zhuōná tā . shuí néng laó lóng tā chuān tā de bízi ne .
24
Can anyone capture it by the eyes, or trap it and pierce its nose?
