Elihu Vindicates God’s Justice
1Then Elihu continued and said, 2“Hear my words, you wise men,
And listen to me, you who understand. 3“For the ear tests words
As the palate tastes food. 4“Let us choose for ourselves what is right;
Let us understand among ourselves what is good. 5“For Job has said, ‘I am righteous,
But God has taken away my right; 6Should I lie about my right?
My wound is incurable, though I am without wrongdoing.’ 7“What man is like Job,
Who drinks up derision like water, 8Who goes in company with the workers of injustice,
And walks with wicked people? 9“For he has said, ‘It is of no use to a man
When he becomes friends with God.’
And listen to me, you who understand. 3“For the ear tests words

Let us understand among ourselves what is good. 5“For Job has said, ‘I am righteous,
But God has taken away my right; 6Should I lie about my right?
My wound is incurable, though I am without wrongdoing.’ 7“What man is like Job,
Who drinks up derision like water, 8Who goes in company with the workers of injustice,
And walks with wicked people? 9“For he has said, ‘It is of no use to a man
When he becomes friends with God.’
1以利戶又說：2你們智慧人要聽我的話；有知識的人要留心聽我說。3因為耳朵試驗話語，好像上膛嘗食物。4我們當選擇何為是，彼此知道何為善。5約伯曾說：我是公義，神奪去我的理；6我雖有理，還算為說謊言的；我雖無過，受的傷還不能醫治。7誰像約伯，喝譏誚如同喝水呢？8他與作孽的結伴，和惡人同行。9他說：人以神為樂，總是無益。
10“Therefore, listen to me, you men of understanding.
Far be it from God to do evil,
And from the Almighty to do wrong. 11“For He repays a person for his work,
And lets things happen in correspondence to a man’s behavior. 12“God certainly will not act wickedly,
And the Almighty will not pervert justice. 13“Who gave Him authority over the earth?
And who has placed the whole world on Him? 14“If He were to determine to do so,
If He were to gather His spirit and His breath to Himself, 15Humanity would perish together,
And mankind would return to dust.

10所以，你們明理的人要聽我的話。神斷不致行惡；全能者斷不致作孽。11他必按人所做的報應人，使各人照所行的得報。12神必不作惡；全能者也不偏離公平。13誰派他治理地，安定全世界呢？14他若專心為己，將靈和氣收歸自己，15凡有血氣的就必一同死亡；世人必仍歸塵土。
16“But if you have understanding, hear this;
Listen to the sound of my words. 17“Shall one who hates justice rule?
And will you condemn the righteous mighty One, 18Who says to a king, ‘You worthless one,’
To nobles, ‘You wicked one’; 19Who shows no partiality to the prominent,
Nor regards the rich as above the poor,
Since they are all the work of His hands? 20“In a moment they die, and at midnight
People are shaken and pass away,
And the powerful are taken away without a hand.

16你若明理，就當聽我的話，留心聽我言語的聲音。17難道恨惡公平的可以掌權嗎？那有公義的、有大能的，豈可定他有罪嗎？18他對君王說：你是鄙陋的；對貴臣說：你是邪惡的。19他待王子不徇情面，也不看重富足的過於貧窮的，因為都是他手所造。20在轉眼之間，半夜之中，他們就死亡。百姓被震動而去世；有權力的被奪去非借人手。
21“For His eyes are upon the ways of a person,
And He sees all his steps. 22“There is no darkness or deep shadow
Where the workers of injustice can hide themselves. 23“For He does not need to consider a person further,
That he should go before God in judgment. 24“He breaks in pieces the mighty without investigation,
And sets others in their place. 25“Therefore He knows their deeds,
And He overthrows them in the night,
And they are crushed. 26“He strikes them like the wicked
In a public place, 27Because they turned aside from following Him,
And had no regard for any of His ways, 28So that they caused the cry of the poor to come to Him,
And that He would hear the cry of the afflicted— 29When He keeps quiet, who can condemn?
And when He hides His face, who then can look at Him,
That is, regarding both nation and a person?— 30“So that godless people would not rule,
Nor be snares for the people.
And He sees all his steps. 22“There is no darkness or deep shadow
Where the workers of injustice can hide themselves. 23“For He does not need to consider a person further,

21神注目觀看人的道路，看明人的腳步。22沒有黑暗、陰翳能給作孽的藏身。23神審判人，不必使人到他面前再三鑒察。24他用難測之法打破有能力的人，設立別人代替他們。25他原知道他們的行為，使他們在夜間傾倒滅亡。26他在眾人眼前擊打他們，如同擊打惡人一樣。27因為他們偏行不跟從他，也不留心他的道，28甚至使貧窮人的哀聲達到他那裏；他也聽了困苦人的哀聲。29他使人安靜，誰能擾亂或譯：定罪呢？他掩面，誰能見他呢？無論待一國或一人都是如此─30使不虔敬的人不得作王，免得有人牢籠百姓。
31“For has anyone said to God,
‘I have endured punishment;
I will not offend anymore; 32Teach me what I do not see;
If I have done wrong,
I will not do it again’? 33“Shall God repay on your terms, because you have rejected His?
For you must choose, and not I;
Therefore declare what you know. 34“Men of understanding will say to me,
And a wise man who hears me, 35‘Job speaks without knowledge,
And his words are without wisdom. 36‘Oh that Job were tested to the limit,
Because he answers like sinners. 37‘For he adds rebellion to his sin;
He claps his hands among us,
And multiplies his words against God.’”

31有誰對神說：我受了責罰，不再犯罪；32我所看不明的，求你指教我；我若作了孽，必不再作？33他施行報應，豈要隨你的心願、叫你推辭不受嗎？選定的是你，不是我。你所知道的只管說吧！34明理的人和聽我話的智慧人必對我說：35約伯說話沒有知識，言語中毫無智慧。36願約伯被試驗到底，因他回答像惡人一樣。37他在罪上又加悖逆；在我們中間拍手，用許多言語輕慢神。
