| 1約伯繼續他的言論說： | 1Job continued his discourse: |
| 2誰能賜我似以前的歲月，像以往天主護守我的時日呢？ | 2Oh, that I were in months gone by, in the days when God watched over me, |
| 3那時他的燈，光照在我頭上，藉他的光明，我走過黑暗。 | 3when his light shone upon my head and I walked with it through darkness. |
| 4惟願我如壯年之時，那時天主護佑我的帳幕； | 4Oh, that I were in my prime, when God's friendship blessed my home, |
| 5全能者與我相偕，我的子女環繞着我； | 5when the Almighty was still with me and my children were around me, |
| 6那時我以奶油洗腳，崖石流油成河。 | 6when milk bathed my footsteps and olive oil flowed from the rock. |
| 7當我走出城門，在市井設我座位之時， | 7When I went to the city gate and took up my seat in the square |
| 8少年人看見我都迴避，老年人都起身站立； | 8the young men stepped aside and the old men rose to their feet; |
| 9王侯停止講話，用手堵住自己的口； | 9the chief men dared not speak but laid their hands on their mouths; |
| 10首領不敢出聲，舌頭緊貼上顎。 | 10the princes were silenced, their tongues stuck to the palate. |
| 11凡有耳聽見我的，必稱我有福；凡有眼看見我的，都必稱讚我。 | 11Whoever heard me, spoke well of me, and those who saw me commended me, |
| 12因為我援助了呼救的窮人，和無依無靠的孤兒。 | 12for I rescued the poor who cried for help, the fatherless and the unassisted. |
| 13那受喪亡之痛的人稱謝我，我使寡婦的心歡樂。 | 13I was blessed by the dying man; I turned to peace the widow's pining. |
| 14我披上正義，正義就如我衣；我的公正，猶如我的長袍和冠冕。 | 14I was wearing my honesty like a garment, my integrity was my robe and turban. |
| 15我作了盲人的眼，跛者的腳。 | 15I was eyes to the blind and feet to the lame, |
| 16我成了窮人之父，我調查過素不相識者的案件。 | 16father to the needy, the stranger's advocate. |
| 17我打碎惡人的獠牙，由他牙齒中奪出了獵物。 | 17I broke the jaws of the wicked, and from his teeth forced out the prey. |
| 18我心想：我必壽終正寢，我的壽數必如塵沙。 | 18I said to myself: "I will die old, my days as many as the grains of sand. |
| 19我的根蔓延到水邊，夜間甘露落在我的枝葉上。 | 19My roots will reach to the water; at night my branches will be wet with dew. |
| 20我的榮耀不斷更新，我手中的弓日新月異。 | 20My glory will remain fresh, the bow ever strong in my grip." |
| 21聽我講話的人，屏息等待，靜聽我的指教。 | 21They listened to me and waited in silence for my counsel. |
| 22我講話之後，無人再敢講話，我的話像水珠滴在他們身上。 | 22Once I spoke they said no more, but drop by drop my words kept falling on them. |
| 23他們期待我如望甘霖，張着大口如渴盼春雨。 | 23They waited for me as people wait for showers; they drank in my words as spring rain. |
| 24我向他們微笑，他們不敢相信；我和善的面容，他們必不放過。 | 24If I smiled at them, they did not dare believe it; not a glance of mine was lost. |
| 25我為他們選擇了道路，身居前導，一如立在軍中的君王；我引他們到那裏，他們就去。 | 25I pointed out the way, as a leader and took a king's place among the troops. Wherever I led them, they went. |
