約伯記 42

約伯回答耶和華說：

yuē bó huí dá yē hé huá shuō ：

Then Job answered the LORD:

我知道，你萬事都能做； 你的旨意不能攔阻。

wǒ zhī dào ， nǐ wàn shì dōu néng zuò ； nǐ de zhǐ yì bù néng lán zǔ 。

“I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.

誰用無知的言語使你的旨意隱藏呢？ 我所說的是我不明白的； 這些事太奇妙，是我不知道的。

shuí yòng wú zhī de yán yǔ shǐ nǐ de zhǐ yì yǐn cáng ne ？ wǒ suǒ shuō de shì wǒ bù míng bái de ； zhè xiē shì tài qí miào ， shì wǒ bù zhī dào de 。

You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’ therefore I have uttered that which I didn’t understand, things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know.

求你聽我，我要說話； 我問你，求你指示我。

qiú nǐ tīng wǒ ， wǒ yào shuō huà ； wǒ wèn nǐ ， qiú nǐ zhǐ shì wǒ 。

You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’

我從前風聞有你， 現在親眼看見你。

wǒ cóng qián fēng wén yǒu nǐ ， xiàn zài qīn yǎn kàn jiàn nǐ 。

I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.

因此我厭惡自己 ， 在塵土和爐灰中懊悔。

yīn cǐ wǒ yàn wù zì jǐ ， zài chén tǔ hé lú huī zhōng ào huǐ 。

Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”

耶和華對約伯說話以後，就對提幔人以利法說：「我的怒氣向你和你兩個朋友發作，因為你們議論我不如我的僕人約伯說的是。

yē hé huá duì yuē bó shuō huà yǐ hòu ， jiù duì tí màn rén yǐ lì fǎ shuō ：「 wǒ de nù qì xiàng nǐ hé nǐ liǎng gè péng yǒu fā zuò ， yīn wèi nǐ men yì lùn wǒ bù rú wǒ de pú rén yuē bó shuō de shì 。

It was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.

現在你們要取七隻公牛，七隻公羊，到我僕人約伯那裏去，為自己獻上燔祭，我的僕人約伯就為你們祈禱。我因悅納他，就不按你們的愚妄辦你們。你們議論我，不如我的僕人約伯說的是。」

xiàn zài nǐ men yào qǔ qī zhī gōng niú ， qī zhī gōng yáng ， dào wǒ pú rén yuē bó nà lǐ qù ， wèi zì jǐ xiàn shàng fán jì ， wǒ de pú rén yuē bó jiù wèi nǐ men qí dǎo 。 wǒ yīn yuè nà tā ， jiù bú àn nǐ men de yú wàng bàn nǐ men 。 nǐ men yì lùn wǒ ， bù rú wǒ de pú rén yuē bó shuō de shì 。」

Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.”

於是提幔人以利法、書亞人比勒達、拿瑪人瑣法照着耶和華所吩咐的去行；耶和華就悅納約伯。

yú shì tí màn rén yǐ lì fǎ 、 shū yà rén bǐ lè dá 、 ná mǎ rén suǒ fǎ zhào zhe yē hé huá suǒ fēn fù de qù xíng ； yē hé huá jiù yuè nà yuē bó 。

So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the LORD commanded them, and the LORD accepted Job.

約伯為他的朋友祈禱。耶和華就使約伯從苦境 轉回，並且耶和華賜給他的比他從前所有的加倍。

yuē bó wèi tā de péng yǒu qí dǎo 。 yē hé huá jiù shǐ yuē bó cóng kǔ jìng zhuǎn huí ， bìng qiě yē hé huá cì gěi tā de bǐ tā cóng qián suǒ yǒu de jiā bèi 。

The LORD restored Job’s prosperity when he prayed for his friends. The LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

約伯的弟兄、姊妹，和以先所認識的人都來見他，在他家裏一同吃飯；又論到耶和華所降與他的一切災禍，都為他悲傷安慰他。每人也送他一塊銀子和一個金環。

yuē bó de dì xiong 、 zǐ mèi ， hé yǐ xiān suǒ rèn shi de rén dōu lái jiàn tā ， zài tā jiā lǐ yì tóng chī fàn ； yòu lùn dào yē hé huá suǒ jiàng yǔ tā de yí qiè zāi huò ， dōu wèi tā bēi shāng ān wèi tā 。 měi rén yě sòng tā yí kuài yín zi hé yí gè jīn huán 。

Then all his brothers, all his sisters, and all those who had been of his acquaintance before, came to him and ate bread with him in his house. They comforted him, and consoled him concerning all the evil that the LORD had brought on him. Everyone also gave him a piece of money, and everyone a ring of gold.

這樣，耶和華後來賜福給約伯比先前更多。他有一萬四千羊，六千駱駝，一千對牛，一千母驢。

zhè yàng ， yē hé huá hòu lái cì fú gěi yuē bó bǐ xiān qián gèng duō 。 tā yǒu yí wàn sì qiān yáng ， liù qiān luò tuó ， yì qiān duì niú ， yì qiān mǔ lǘ 。

So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.

他也有七個兒子，三個女兒。

tā yě yǒu qī gè ér zi ， sān gè nǚ ér 。

He had also seven sons and three daughters.

他給長女起名叫耶米瑪，次女叫基洗亞，三女叫基連‧哈樸。

tā gěi cháng nǚ qǐ míng jiào yē mǐ mǎ ， cì nǚ jiào jī xǐ yà ， sān nǚ jiào jī lián · hā pǔ 。

He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.

在那全地的婦女中找不着像約伯的女兒那樣美貌。她們的父親使她們在弟兄中得產業。

zài nà quán dì de fù nǚ zhōng zhǎo bù zhe xiàng yuē bó de nǚ ér nà yàng měi mào 。 tā men de fù qīn shǐ tā men zài dì xiong zhōng dé chǎn yè 。

In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.

此後，約伯又活了一百四十年，得見他的兒孫，直到四代。

cǐ hòu ， yuē bó yòu huó le yì bǎi sì shí nián ， dé jiàn tā de ér sūn ， zhí dào sì dài 。

After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, to four generations.

這樣，約伯年紀老邁，日子滿足而死。

zhè yàng ， yuē bó nián jì lǎo mài ， rì zi mǎn zú ér sǐ 。

So Job died, being old and full of days.
