| 22:1 | 提幔人以利法回答说，
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, |
|
| 22:2 | 人岂能使神有益呢？智慧人但能有益于己。
Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself? |
|
| 22:3 | 你为人公义，岂叫全能者喜悦呢？你行为完全，岂能使他得利呢？
Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or is it gain to him, that thou makest thy ways perfect? |
|
| 22:4 | 岂是因你敬畏他，就责备你，审判你吗？
Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment? |
|
| 22:5 | 你的罪恶岂不是大吗？你的罪孽也没有穷尽。
Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite? |
|
| 22:6 | 因你无故强取弟兄的物为当头，剥去贫寒人的衣服。
For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing. |
|
| 22:7 | 困乏的人，你没有给他水喝。饥饿的人，你没有给他食物。
Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry. |
|
| 22:8 | 有能力的人就得地土。尊贵的人也住在其中。
But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it. |
|
| 22:9 | 你打发寡妇空手回去，折断孤儿的膀臂。
Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken. |
|
| 22:10 | 因此，有网罗环绕你，有恐惧忽然使你惊惶。
Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee; |
|
| 22:11 | 或有黑暗蒙蔽你，并有洪水淹没你。
Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee. |
|
| 22:12 | 神岂不是在高天吗？你看星宿何其高呢？
Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are! |
|
| 22:13 | 你说，神知道什么。他岂能看透幽暗施行审判呢？
And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud? |
|
| 22:14 | 密云将他遮盖，使他不能看见。他周游穹苍。
Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven. |
|
| 22:15 | 你要依从上古的道吗？这道是恶人所行的。
Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden? |
|
| 22:16 | 他们未到死期，忽然除灭。根基毁坏，好像被江河冲去。
Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood: |
|
| 22:17 | 他们向神说，离开我们吧。又说，全能者能把我们怎么样呢？
Which said unto God, Depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them? |
|
| 22:18 | 哪知，神以美物充满他们的房屋。但恶人所谋定的离我好远。
Yet he filled their houses with good things: but the counsel of the wicked is far from me. |
|
| 22:19 | 义人看见他们的结局就欢喜。无辜的人嗤笑他们。
The righteous see it, and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn. |
|
| 22:20 | 说，那起来攻击我们的果然被剪除，其余的都被火烧灭。
Whereas our substance is not cut down, but the remnant of them the fire consumeth. |
|
| 22:21 | 你若认识神，就得平安。福气也必临到你。
Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. |
|
| 22:22 | 你当领受他口中的教训，将他的言语存在心里。
Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart. |
|
| 22:23 | 你若向全能者，从你帐棚中远除不义，就必得建立。
If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles. |
|
| 22:24 | 要将你的珍宝丢在尘土里，将俄斐的黄金丢在溪河石头之间。
Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. |
|
| 22:25 | 全能者就必为你的珍宝，作你的宝银。
Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver. |
|
| 22:26 | 你就要以全能者为喜乐，向神仰起脸来。
For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God. |
|
| 22:27 | 你要祷告他，他就听你。你也要还你的愿。
Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows. |
|
| 22:28 | 你定意要作何事，必然给你成就。亮光也必照耀你的路。
Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways. |
|
| 22:29 | 人使你降卑，你仍可说，必得高升。谦卑的人神必拯救。
When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. |
|
| 22:30 | 人非无辜，神且要搭救他。他因你手中清洁，必蒙拯救。
He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands. |
