1特曼人厄里法次接着說: | 1Then Eliphaz the Themanite answered, and said: |
2人為天主能有什麼益處?明智人只能於一己有益。 | 2Can man be compared with God, even though he were of perfect knowledge? |
3縱然你公正,對全能者能有什麼好處?縱然你品行齊全,對天主有什麼利益? | 3What doth it profit God if thou be just? or what dost thou give him if thy way be unspotted? |
4他豈能因你敬畏之心而責斥你,拉你來聽審? | 4Shall he reprove thee for fear, and come with thee into judgment: |
5豈不是因為你罪惡多端,罪過無窮? | 5And not for thy manifold wickedness, and thy infinite iniquities? |
6因為你無理地強取了你兄弟的抵押,剝去了人的衣服,使之赤裸; | 6For thou hast taken away the pledge of thy brethren without cause, and stripped the naked of their clothing. |
7口渴的人,你沒有給他水喝;饑餓的人,你沒有給他飯吃; | 7Thou hast not given water to the weary, thou hast withdrawn bread from the hungry. |
8讓強有力的人佔有土地,讓尊貴體面的人住在其中; | 8In the strength of thy arm thou didst possess the land, and being the most mighty thou holdest it. |
9卻使寡婦空手而歸,折斷孤兒的手臂; | 9Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless thou hast broken in pieces. |
10因此羅網要四面圍困你,恐嚇突降,使你驚惶。 | 10Therefore art thou surrounded with snares, and sudden fear troubleth thee. |
11光明變成黑暗,使你毫無所見;洪水漫漫,將你淹沒。 | 11And didst thou think that thou shouldst not see darkness, and that thou shouldst not be covered with the violence of overflowing waters? |
12天主豈不是居於高天?看,最高的星辰何其高遠? | 12Dost not thou think that God is higher than heaven, and is elevated above the height of the stars? |
13你曾說過:「天主知道什麼?他豈能透過黑雲施行審判? | 13And thou sayst: What doth God know? and he judgeth as it were through a mist. |
14雲彩遮蔽着他,使他看不到什麼,而他只在天邊周圍遊行。」 | 14The clouds are his covert, and he doth not consider our things, and he walketh about the poles of heaven. |
15你豈要固守惡人所蹈的故轍? | 15Dost thou desire to keep the path of ages, which wicked men have trodden? |
16尚未到時,他們已被攫去,大水沖去了他們的基礎。 | 16Who were taken away before their time, and a flood hath overthrown their foundation. |
17他們曾向天主說:「離開我們!全能者能為我們作什麼?」 | 17Who said to God: Depart from us: and looked upon the Almighty as if he could do nothing: |
18他原來是以福利充滿了他們的家,可是惡人的思想離他很遠。 | 18Whereas he had filled their houses with good things: whose way of thinking be far from me. |
19義人見了就歡樂,無罪者也譏笑他們說: | 19The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and the innocent shall laugh them to scorn. |
20「的確,他們的財富已被消滅,他們所剩餘的皆被火焚毀。」 | 20Is not their exaltation cut down, and hath not fire devoured the remnants of them? |
21請你與他親善和好,藉此你的幸福必得恢復。 | 21Submit thyself then to him, and be at peace: and thereby thou shalt have the best fruits. |
22請你領受他口中的教訓,將他的話存在心中。 | 22Receive the law of his mouth, and lay up his words in thy heart. |
23如果你歸向全能者,你必興起;你若使邪惡離開你的帳幕, | 23If thou wilt return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, and shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacle. |
24視金子如塵埃,視敖非爾金如溪石, | 24He shall give for earth flint, and for flint torrents of gold. |
25全能者必作為你的精金,作為你的銀堆。 | 25And the Almighty shall be against thy enemies, and silver shall be heaped together for thee. |
26那時你必以全能者為喜樂,向天主仰起你的頭來。 | 26Then shalt thou abound in delights in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face to God. |
27那時你祈求他,他必應允你;你可向他還你的誓願。 | 27Thou shalt pray to him, and he will hear thee, and thou shalt pay vows. |
28你決定的事,事必成就;光明要照耀你的道路, | 28Thou shalt decree a thing, and it I shall come to thee, and light shall shine in thy ways. |
29因為他壓伏驕傲的人,拯救低首下心的人。 | 29For he that hath been humbled, shall be in glory: and he that shall bow down his eyes, he shall be saved. |
30他必解救無罪的人;你若手中清廉,你必獲救。 | 30The innocent shall be saved, and he shall be saved by the cleanness of his hands. |
