Job 约伯记09(在线收听) |
9Then Job replied: 2"Indeed, I know that this is true. But how can a mortal be righteous before God? 3Though one wished to dispute with him, he could not answer him one time out of a thousand. 4His wisdom is profound, his power is vast. Who has resisted him and come out unscathed? 5He moves mountains without their knowing it and overturns them in his anger. 6He shakes the earth from its place and makes its pillars tremble. 7He speaks to the sun and it does not shine; he seals off the light of the stars. 8He alone stretches out the heavens and treads on the waves of the sea. 9He is the Maker of the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the constellations of the south. 10He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. 11When he passes me, I cannot see him; when he goes by, I cannot perceive him. 12If he snatches away, who can stop him? Who can say to him, 'What are you doing?' 13God does not restrain his anger; even the cohorts of Rahab cowered at his feet. 14"How then can I dispute with him? How can I find words to argue with him? 15Though I were innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my Judge for mercy. 16Even if I summoned him and he responded, I do not believe he would give me a hearing. 17He would crush me with a storm and multiply my wounds for no reason. 18He would not let me regain my breath but would overwhelm me with misery. 19If it is a matter of strength, he is mighty!

If it is not he, then who is it? 25"My days are swifter than a runner; they fly away without a glimpse of joy. 26They skim past like boats of papyrus, like eagles swooping down on their prey. 27If I say, 'I will forget my complaint, I will change my expression, and smile,' 28I still dread all my sufferings, for I know you will not hold me innocent. 29Since I am already found guilty, why should I struggle in vain? 30Even if I washed myself with soap and my hands with washing soda, 31you would plunge me into a slime pit so that even my clothes would detest me. 32"He is not a man like me that I might answer him, that we might confront each other in court. 33If only there were someone to arbitrate between us, to lay his hand upon us both, 34someone to remove God's rod from me, so that his terror would frighten me no more. 35Then I would speak up without fear of him, but as it now stands with me, I cannot |
