* 以利户的发言
* 伯32:1 于是这三个人,因约伯自以为义就不再回答他。
* 以利户的发言
* 伯32:1 于是这三个人,因约伯自以为义就不再回答他。
§2
*So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
§3
* 伯32:2 那时有布西人兰族巴拉迦的儿子以利户向约伯发怒;因约伯自以为义,不以上帝为义。
§4
*Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.
§5
* 伯32:3 他又向约伯的三个朋友发怒;因为他们想不出回答的话来,仍以约伯为有罪。
§6
*Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.
§7
* 伯32:4 以利户要与约伯说话,就等候他们,因为他们比自己年老。
§8
*Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken, because they were elder than he.
§9
* 伯32:5 以利户见这三个人口中无话回答,就怒气发作。
§10
*When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled.
§11
* 伯32:6 布西人巴拉迦的儿子以利户回答说:我年轻,你们老迈;因此我退让,不敢向你们陈说我的意见。
§12
*And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.
§13
* 伯32:7 我说,年老的当先说话;寿高的当以智慧教训人。
§14
*I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.
§15
* 伯32:8 但在人里面有灵;全能者的气使人有聪明。
§16
*But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
§17
* 伯32:9 尊贵的不都有智慧;寿高的不都能明白公平。
§18
*Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.
§19
* 伯32:10 因此我说:你们要听我言;我也要陈说我的意见。
§20
*Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.
§21
* 伯32:11 你们查究所要说的话;那时我等候你们的话,侧耳听你们的辩论,
§22
*Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.
§23
* 伯32:12 留心听你们;谁知你们中间无一人折服约伯,驳倒他的话。
§24
*Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words:
§25
* 伯32:13 你们切不可说:我们寻得智慧;上帝能胜他,人却不能。
§26
*Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.
§27
* 伯32:14 约伯没有向我争辩;我也不用你们的话回答他。
§28
*Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches.
§29
* 伯32:15 他们惊奇不再回答,一言不发。
§30
*They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.
§31
* 伯32:16 我岂因他们不说话,站住不再回答,仍旧等候呢?
§32
*When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)
§33
* 伯32:17 我也要回答我的一分话,陈说我的意见。
§34
*I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.
§35
* 伯32:18 因为我的言语满怀;我里面的灵激动我。
§36
*For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
§37
* 伯32:19 我的胸怀如盛酒之囊没有出气之缝,又如新皮袋快要破裂。
§38
*Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles.
§39
* 伯32:20 我要说话,使我舒畅;我要开口回答。
§40
*I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer.
§41
* 伯32:21 我必不看人的情面,也不奉承人。
§42
*Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man.
§43
* 伯32:22 我不晓得奉承;若奉承,造我的主必快快除灭我。
§44
*For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away.
