Job 26

1 Then Job answered:

1 约伯回答说：

2 “How you have helped the powerless and saved the arm that is feeble!

2 “你真是帮了软弱者的大忙！ 救了臂膀无力的人！

3 How you have counseled the unwise and provided fully sound insight!

3 无智慧的人真多亏你的指教！ 承蒙你的真知灼见！

4 To whom have you uttered these words? And whose spirit spoke through you?

4 谁帮你说出这些话？ 谁的灵在借着你发言？

5 The dead tremble—those beneath the waters and those who dwell in them.

5 “阴魂和水族在水底颤抖，

6 Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.

6 阴间裸露在祂面前， 灭亡之地毫无遮掩。

7 He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth upon nothing.

7 祂将北极铺在空中， 将地悬在虚无中；

8 He wraps up the waters in His clouds, yet the clouds do not burst under their own weight.

8 祂将水卷在密云中， 云负重却不裂开。

9 He covers the face of the full moon, spreading over it His cloud.

9 祂遮盖自己的宝座 ， 把云彩铺在上面。

10 He has inscribed a horizon on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.

10 祂在海面上画出地平线， 作为光明与黑暗的交界。

11 The foundations of heaven quake, astounded at His rebuke.

11 祂的斥责使天柱震动惊骇，

12 By His power He stirred the sea; by His understanding He shattered Rahab.

12 祂的能力使大海平静， 祂运用智慧击碎海怪。

13 By His breath the skies were cleared; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.

13 祂吹的气使天空晴朗， 祂挥手刺穿逃跑的蛇。

14 Indeed, these are but the fringes of His ways; how faint is the whisper we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His power?”

14 看啊，这不过是祂作为的一斑， 是我们听到的点滴微音！ 谁能领悟祂的雷霆万钧？”
