| 約伯傳 | Job |

| 1此後約伯開口詛咒自己的生日。 | 1After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day, |
| 2約伯開始說： | 2And he said: |
| 3願我誕生的那日消逝，願報告「懷了男胎」的那夜滅亡。 | 3Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said: A man child is conceived. |
| 4願那日成為黑暗，願天主從上面不再尋覓它，再沒有光燭照它。 | 4Let that day be turned into darkness, let not God regard it from above, and let not the light shine upon it. |
| 5願黑暗和陰影玷污它，濃雲遮蓋它，白晝失光的晦暗驚嚇它。 | 5Let darkness, and the shadow of death cover it, let a mist overspread it, and let it be wrapped up in bitterness. |
| 6願那夜常為黑暗所制，不讓它列入年歲中，不讓它算在月分裏。 | 6Let a darksome whirlwind seize upon that night, let it not be counted in the days of the year, nor numbered in the months. |
| 7願那夜孤寂煢獨，毫無歡呼之聲。 | 7Let that night be solitary, and not worthy of praise. |
| 8願那詛咒白日者，有術召喚海怪者，前來詛咒那夜。 | 8Let them curse it who curse the day. who are ready to raise up a leviathan: |
| 9願晨星昏暗，期待光明而光明不至，也不見晨光熹微， | 9Let the stars be darkened with the mist thereof: let it expect light and not see it, nor the rising of the dawning of the day: |
| 10因為它沒有關閉我母胎之門，遮住我眼前的愁苦。 | 10Because it shut not up the doors of the womb that bore me, nor took away evils from my eyes. |
| 11我為何一出母胎沒有立即死去？為何我一離母腹沒有斷氣？ | 11Why did I not die in the womb, why did I not perish when I came out of the belly? |
| 12為何兩膝接住我？為何兩乳哺養我？ | 12Why received upon the knees? why suckled at the breasts? |
| 13不然，現今我早已臥下安睡了，早已永眠獲得安息了， | 13For now I should have been asleep and still, and should have rest in my sleep. |
| 14與那些為自己建陵墓的國王和百官， | 14With kings and consuls of the earth, who build themselves solitudes: |
| 15與那些金銀滿堂的王侯同眠； | 15Or with princes, that possess gold, and All their houses with silver: |
| 16或者像隱沒的流產兒，像未見光明的嬰孩； | 16Or as a hidden untimely birth I should not be, or as they that being conceived have not seen the light. |
| 17在那裏惡人停止作亂，在那裏勞悴者得享安寧； | 17There the wicked cease from tumult, and there the wearied in strength are at rest. |
| 18囚徒相安無事，再不聞督工的呼叱聲； | 18And they sometime bound together without disquiet, have not heard the voice of the oppressor. |
| 19在那裏大小平等，奴隸脫離主人。 | 19The small and great are there, and the servant is free from his master. |
| 20為何賜不幸者以光明，賜心中憂苦者以生命？ | 20Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to them that are in bitterness of soul? |
| 21這些人渴望死，而死不至；尋求死亡勝於寶藏， | 21That look for death, and it cometh not, as they that dig for a treasure: |
| 22見到墳墓，感覺歡樂，且喜樂達於極點！ | 22And they rejoice exceedingly when they have found the grave. |
| 23人的道路，既如此渺茫，天主為何賜給他生命，又把他包圍？ | 23To a man whose way is hidden, and God hath surrounded him with darkness? |
| 24歎息成了我的食物，不停哀歎有如流水。 | 24Before I eat I sigh: and as overflowing waters, so is my roaring: |
| 25我所畏懼的，偏偏臨於我身；我所害怕的，卻迎面而來。 | 25For the fear which I feared hath come upon me: and that which I was afraid of, hath befallen me. |
| 26我沒有安寧，也沒有平靜，得不到休息，而只有煩惱。 | 26Have I not dissembled? have I not kept silence? have I not been quiet? and indignation is come upon me. |
