1全能者为何不划定一个期限呢?忠于他的人为何看不到他的日子? | 1Why is what happens hidden from God? Why do his faithful never see his justice? |
2恶人挪移地界,抢去羊群自去牧放; | 2The wicked remove landmarks and steal both flocks and shepherds. |
3赶走孤儿的驴,拿去寡妇的牛作抵押; | 3They seize the orphan's ass and for a pledge take the widow's ox. |
4迫使穷人离开正路,使境内的贫民隐藏不露。 | 4The needy stay far from the road, the poor go into hiding. |
5看啊!他们像旷野的野驴,出来寻觅食物;他们纵使到晚操作,却找不到养子女的食物。 | 5Like wild asses in the wasteland, they look for food; the poor toil in the night, there is no food for their children! |
6夜间遂到田间去收割,到恶人的葡萄园中去摘取。 | 6They gather fodder in the fields, work in the vineyards of the wicked. |
7赤身过宿,无衣蔽体;严寒之时,没有舖盖。 | 7Destitute, they lie down naked, shivering in the freezing cold. |
8在山中为暴雨淋透,因无处避身,而卧于磐石下。 | 8Drenched with mountain rains, they hug the rocks for lack of shelter. |
9另有些人将孤儿从母怀中抢去,剥去穷人的衣服作抵押, | 9The fatherless child is snatched from the breast, the infant of the poor seized for a debt. |
10致使他们无衣赤身行走,枵腹担荷麦捆; | 10Without clothes, they go naked, starving as they carry the sheaves. |
11在石槽中搾油、践踏,反受口渴之苦。 | 11Between the millstones they crush olives; they tread the winepress but suffer thirst. |
12临死者的呻吟,声闻城外;负伤者呼求救援,天主却不理会他们的哀求。 | 12In the city the dying groan, and the wounded cry out for help but God pays no attention. |
13另有些人反抗光明,不认识光明的道路,更不走光明的途径。 | 13Many rebel against the light, they do not know its way or stay in its path. |
14凶手黎明即起,去杀害困苦和贫穷的人,夜间去作盗贼。 | 14When dawn breaks, the murderer rises to kill the poor and the helpless. |
15奸夫的眼盼望黄昏,他心里说:「没有眼可看见我!」就将自己的脸遮蔽起来。 | 15The adulterer waits for dusk, thinking that no eye watches him. At night the thief walks about and puts a mask over his face, |
16窃贼夜间挖穿屋墙,白日将自己关起,不愿看见光明, | 16ready to break into the houses that he chose during the day. |
17因为早晨对这班人有如死影,他们已熟悉了黑暗的恐怖。 | 17Morning is their darkest hour the time for them to fear. |
18是否如此?谁能证明我说谎,谁能以我的话为荒诞? | 18The wicked are foam on the face of the waters; their portion of the land is cursed, and no one goes to their vineyards. |
19 | 19As drought and heat snap up the thawed snow, so Sheol swallows up the sinner, |
20 | 20and the womb which formed him, forgets him. Evil men are no longer remembered, like a fallen tree they are broken. |
21 | 21They preyed on the barren, childless woman, and showed no kindness to the widow. |
22 | 22But the Powerful stands against them and drags away the mighty. |
23 | 23He may let them feel secure, but his eyes are upon their ways. |
24 | 24They are momentarily exalted, and then gone; they wither and fade like a weed. They are cut off like heads of grain. |
25 | 25If this is not so, who can prove me wrong and reduce my words to nothing? |
