約伯的回答
23 約伯回答說：
2 「我的哀訴至今充滿苦楚，
祂的責罰使我呻吟不止。
3 但願我知道何處能尋見上帝，
知道怎樣去祂的居所。
4 我好在祂面前陳明案情，
滔滔不絕地為自己申辯；
5 我好知道祂的答覆，
看看祂對我說什麼。
6 祂會用大能與我爭辯嗎？
不會的，祂會垂聽我的申訴，
7 允許正直的人與祂理論，
審判者會讓我永遠脫罪。
8 「然而，我去東邊，祂不在那裡；
我到西邊，也找不到祂。
9 祂在北邊工作，我看不見祂；
祂轉到南邊，我也看不見祂。
10 但祂知道我的一舉一動，
我被祂試煉後必如純金。
11 我緊隨祂的腳步，
持守祂的道，沒有偏離。
12 我沒有違背祂的誡命，
我珍視祂的話語勝過我日用的飲食。
13 祂獨行其事，誰能阻擋祂？
祂按自己的意願行事。
14 祂在我身上的計劃必然實現，
祂還有許多這樣的計劃。
15 所以，我在祂面前驚恐不安。
我想起這事，便對祂充滿恐懼。
16 上帝使我心驚膽戰，
全能者使我驚恐不安。
17 然而，我不會因為置身黑暗，
被幽暗籠罩而緘默不言。
Job 23
King James Version
Job 23
King James Version
23 Then Job answered and said,
2 Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.
3 Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat!
4 I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.
5 I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.
6 Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me.
7 There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
8 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:
9 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:
10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
11 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.
12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
13 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth.
14 For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him.
15 Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him.
16 For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me:
17 Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face.

23 Then Job replied:
2 “Even today my complaint(A) is bitter;(B)
his hand[a] is heavy in spite of[b] my groaning.(C)
3 If only I knew where to find him;
if only I could go to his dwelling!(D)
4 I would state my case(E) before him
and fill my mouth with arguments.(F)
5 I would find out what he would answer me,(G)
and consider what he would say to me.
6 Would he vigorously oppose me?(H)
No, he would not press charges against me.(I)
7 There the upright(J) can establish their innocence before him,(K)
and there I would be delivered forever from my judge.(L)
8 “But if I go to the east, he is not there;
if I go to the west, I do not find him.
9 When he is at work in the north, I do not see him;
when he turns to the south, I catch no glimpse of him.(M)
10 But he knows the way that I take;(N)
when he has tested me,(O) I will come forth as gold.(P)
11 My feet have closely followed his steps;(Q)
I have kept to his way without turning aside.(R)
12 I have not departed from the commands of his lips;(S)
I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread.(T)
13 “But he stands alone, and who can oppose him?(U)
He does whatever he pleases.(V)
14 He carries out his decree against me,
and many such plans he still has in store.(W)
15 That is why I am terrified before him;(X)
when I think of all this, I fear him.(Y)
16 God has made my heart faint;(Z)
the Almighty(AA) has terrified me.(AB)
17 Yet I am not silenced by the darkness,(AC)
by the thick darkness that covers my face.
