| 29:1 |
约伯又接着说：
Moreover Job continued his parable, and said, |
|
|
| 29:2 |
惟愿我的景况如从前的月份，如神保守我的日子。
Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me; |
|
|
| 29:3 |
那时他的灯照在我头上。我藉他的光行过黑暗。
When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness; |
|
|
| 29:4 |
我愿如壮年的时候，那时我在帐棚中。神待我有密友之情。
As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle; |
|
|
| 29:5 |
全能者仍与我同在。我的儿女都环绕我。
When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me; |
|
|
| 29:6 |
奶多可洗我的脚。磐石为我出油成河。
When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil; |
|
|
| 29:7 |
我出到城门，在街上设立座位。
When I went out to the gate through the city, when I prepared my seat in the street! |
|
|
| 29:8 |
少年人见我而回避，老年人也起身站立。
The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and the aged arose, and stood up. |
|
|
| 29:9 |
王子都停止说话，用手糊口。
The princes refrained talking, and laid their hand on their mouth. |
|
|
| 29:10 |
首领静默无声，舌头贴住上膛。
The nobles held their peace, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth. |
|
|
| 29:11 |
耳朵听我的，就称我有福。眼睛看我的，便称赞我。
When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me: |
|
|
| 29:12 |
因我拯救哀求的困苦人，和无人帮助的孤儿。
Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him. |
|
|
| 29:13 |
将要灭亡的为我祝福。我也使寡妇心中欢乐。
The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy. |
|
|
| 29:14 |
我以公义为衣服，以公平为外袍和冠冕。
I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem. |
|
|
| 29:15 |
我为瞎子的眼，瘸子的脚。
I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame. |
|
|
| 29:16 |
我为穷乏人的父，素不认识的人，我查明他的案件。
I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out. |
|
|
| 29:17 |
我打破不义之人的牙床，从他牙齿中夺了所抢的。
And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth. |
|
|
| 29:18 |
我便说：我必死在家中（原文作窝中），必增添我的日子，多如尘沙。
Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the sand. |
|
|
| 29:19 |
我的根长到水边，露水终夜沾在我的枝上。
My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch. |
|
|
| 29:20 |
我的荣耀在身上增新，我的弓在手中日强。
My glory was fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand. |
|
|
| 29:21 |
人听见我而仰望，静默等候我的指教。
Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel. |
|
|
| 29:22 |
我说话之后，他们就不再说。我的言语像雨露滴在他们身上。
After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them. |
|
|
| 29:23 |
他们仰望我如仰望雨，又张开口如切慕春雨。
And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain. |
|
|
| 29:24 |
他们不敢自信，我就向他们含笑。他们不使我脸上的光改变。
If I laughed on them, they believed it not; and the light of my countenance they cast not down. |
|
|
| 29:25 |
我为他们选择道路，又坐首位。我如君王在军队中居住，又如吊丧的安慰伤心的人。
I chose out their way, and sat chief, and dwelt as a king in the army, as one that comforteth the mourners. |
