1厄里烏又接着說: | 1Elihu continued and said: |
2你說過:「我在天主前是正義的。」你想這話合理嗎? | 2Do you presume you are right and innocent before God, |
3你還說過:「這與你何干?我若犯罪,我對你做了什麼?」 | 3when you say, "What is it to you, am I doing you harm with my sins?" |
4我今答覆你,以及和你在一起的友人。 | 4I will answer you and your friends as well. |
5請你仰視上天,且要靜觀,細看高於你的蒼天。 | 5Look up to the sky and see, gaze at the clouds above. |
6你若犯罪,為他有什麼害處?你若作惡多端,又能加害他什麼? | 6If you sin, what is that for God? Do your many offenses hurt him? |
7如果你為人正義,為他又有何益?或者他由你手中獲得什麼? | 7If you are just, what do you give him? or what does he receive from your hand? |
8你的惡行只能加害與你類似的人,你的正義也只能有益於世人。 | 8It's a man like yourself that your sin touches, a son of man that your justice affects. |
9人因受暴虐過甚,必要哀號;因受強權的壓迫,必要呼籲。 | 9Men cry out when greatly oppressed; they plead for relief under the tyrant's reign. |
10但是沒有人說:「那造成我們,使人夜間歡唱, | 10But no one says, "Where is God, my Maker, whose songs of jubilation are heard in the night, |
11使我們比地上的走獸更聰明,使我們比天上的飛鳥更有智慧的天主在那裏?」 | 11who teaches us through the beasts of the earth, who makes us wise through the birds of the air?" |
12他們雖呼喊,天主卻不答應,這是因為惡人傲慢的原故。 | 12This is why he does not answer when they cry out: because of man's arrogance. |
13他們空喊亂叫,天主決不俯聽,全能者決不垂視。 | 13In vain! God does not listen, the Almighty takes no heed of it. |
14何況你說過:「你看不見他;但你的案件已放在他面前,你應等待他!」 | 14How much less then will he listen when you say you do not see him and wait, for your case is before him! |
15你還說過:「他沒有發怒施罰,似乎不很理會罪過。」 | 15And you say that though he is angry he does not know how to punish for he has taken no notice of wickedness. |
16的確,約伯開口盡說空話;由於無知,說了許多妄言。 | 16So Job opens his mouth in empty talk, without knowledge he multiplies words. |
