无标题
简体中文
2. 因此（Therefore）——更当译作：我因约伯的话愈是激动，就正因如此愈发要让自己平静的思虑来供给答复。原文作：“虽然如此；我平静的心思（如伯4:13）要供给我的回答，因我内心的激动（急切）”（翁布雷特[UMBREIT]）。
英文原文
2. Therefore--Rather, the more excited I feel by Job's speech, the more for that very reason shall my reply be supplied by my calm consideration. Literally, "Notwithstanding; my calm thoughts (as in
Job 4:13)
shall furnish my answer, because of the excitement (haste) within me" [UMBREIT].

3. 我所受羞辱的责罚（check of my reproach）——即作为羞辱（原文作“羞耻”）而加于我的责罚。
……了解的灵（spirit of . . . understanding）——指我的理性之灵，与伯20:2的“平静的心思”相呼应。尽管你的辱骂催促我“急躁”，我仍要以平静的理智作答。
英文原文
3. check of my reproach--that is, the castigation intended as a reproach (literally, "shame") to me.
spirit of . . . understanding--my rational spirit; answering to "calm thoughts"
(Job 20:2).
In spite of thy reproach urging me to "hastiness." I will answer in calm reason.

5. 假冒为善的人（the hypocrite）——原文作“不敬虔的人”（诗37:35、36）。
英文原文
5. the hypocrite--literally, "the ungodly"
(Ps 37:35, 36).

7. 粪土（dung）——与罪人的骄傲（伯20:6）相对；这强烈的字眼表达厌恶与最低的卑微（诗83:10；王上14:10）。
英文原文
7. dung--in contrast to the haughtiness of the sinner
(Job 20:6);
this strong term expresses disgust and the lowest degradation
(Ps 83:10; 1Ki 14:10).

9. 更当译作：“眼目跟从他，却再也辨不出他”。意指凝视（伯28:7；伯7:10）。
英文原文
9. Rather "the eye followeth him, but can discern him no more." A sharp-looking is meant
(Job 28:7; Job 7:10).
10
无标题
简体中文
10. 讨好（seek to please）——“向穷人赔罪”（归还父亲所抢夺的财物）[德·韦特（DE WETTE）]。比英文译本（English Version）更好：“儿女们”被贬到“讨好那些穷人”的可耻地步——那些穷人正是父亲所欺压的。但翁布雷特（UMBREIT）如边注那样译。
他的手（his hands）——更当译作“他们（儿女）的手”。
他们的财物（their goods）——即穷人的财物。公义的报应！（出20:5）。
英文原文
10. seek to please--"Atone to the poor" (by restoring the property of which they had been robbed by the father) [DE WETTE]. Better than English Version, "The children" are reduced to the humiliating condition of "seeking the favor of those very poor," whom the father had oppressed. But UMBREIT translates as Margin.
his hands--rather, "their (the children's) hands."
their goods--the goods of the poor. Righteous retribution!
(Ex 20:5).

11. （诗25:7），武加大译本（Vulgate）也如此。格塞纽斯（GESENIUS）译作“充满青春”；即在他青春精力旺盛之时被置于尘土中。但“骨头”显然暗指约伯的病，大概指约伯自己的话（伯19:20）。翁布雷特（UMBREIT）译作：“充满他的隐秘之罪”，如诗90:8；他在貌似公义之时所隐藏的罪愆，如同隐秘的毒物，至终将他置于尘土。英文译本（English Version）最佳。琐法暗指约伯自己的话（伯17:16）。
在他身旁（with him）——他的罪已如此遍布他的全人，以致伴随他到坟墓：因为罪人永不能摆脱罪（启22:11）。
英文原文
11.
(Ps 25:7),
so Vulgate. GESENIUS has "full of youth"; namely, in the fulness of his youthful strength he shall be laid in the dust. But "bones" plainly alludes to Job's disease, probably to Job's own words
(Job 19:20).
UMBREIT translates, "full of his secret sins," as in
Ps 90:8;
his secret guilt in his time of seeming righteousness, like secret poison, at last lays him in the dust. The English Version is best. Zophar alludes to Job's own words
(Job 17:16).
with him--His sin had so pervaded his nature that it accompanies him to the grave: for eternity the sinner cannot get rid of it
(Re 22:11).
12
无标题
简体中文
12. 乃是（be）——“甘甜”。罪的诱惑如同毒物，入口甘甜，至终却伤害要害（箴20:17；伯9:17、18）。
藏在……舌头底下（hide . . . tongue）——想延长享受，把甘甜的一口久含在口中（如伯20:13）。
英文原文
12. be--"taste sweet." Sin's fascination is like poison sweet to the taste, but at last deadly to the vital organs
(Pr 20:17; Job 9:17, 18).
hide . . . tongue--seek to prolong the enjoyment by keeping the sweet morsel long in the mouth (so
Job 20:13).
14
无标题
简体中文
14. turned——希伯来文表示完全变为可厌的相反之物
(Jer 2:21;
参
Re 10:9, 10)。
gall——古人以为蝮蛇的毒含于胆中。其实毒含于口中的囊。圣经采用通俗说法,只要无损于道德真理。
英文原文
14. turned--Hebrew denotes a total change into a disagreeable contrary
(Jer 2:21;
compare
Re 10:9, 10).
gall--in which the poison of the asp was thought to lie. It rather is contained in a sack in the mouth. Scripture uses popular language, where no moral truth is thereby endangered.

17

简体中文
17. floods——字面作“江河之流”,丰盛的水流,涌流奶等等\n (Job 29:6; Ex 3:17)。
蜂蜜与酥油在东方比我们这里更为流质,从罐中倒出。这些“江河”或溪流在酷热的东方是兴旺的象征。
英文原文
17. floods--literally, "stream of floods," plentiful streams flowing with milk, &c.
(Job 29:6; Ex 3:17).
Honey and butter are more fluid in the East than with us and are poured out from jars. These "rivers" or water brooks are in the sultry East emblems of prosperity.
18
无标题
简体中文
18. 喻象取自在人未及咽下之前即被夺去的食物。
restitution——(如\n Pr 6:31)。
平行结构更支持英文译本,而非 GESENIUS 的译法——“作为他不以为乐的须归还之物”。
he shall not rejoice——他享受不义之财的时期必到尽头\n (Job 20:5)。
英文原文
18. Image from food which is taken away from one before he can swallow it.
restitution--(So
Pr 6:31).
The parallelism favors the English Version rather than the translation of GESENIUS, "As a possession to be restored in which he rejoices not."
he shall not rejoice--His enjoyment of his ill-gotten gains shall then be at an end
(Job 20:5).

19. oppressed——他本该维护他们的事业\n (2Ch 16:10)。
forsaken——被撇弃而无助。
house——如此使穷人无家可归\n (Isa 5:8; Mic 2:2)。
英文原文
19. oppressed--whereas he ought to have espoused their cause
(2Ch 16:10).
forsaken--left helpless.
house--thus leaving the poor without shelter
(Isa 5:8; Mic 2:2).

简体中文
20. UMBREIT 译作:“他的内脏不得安息”,脱离各种欲望。
his belly——即内在的平安。
not save——字面作:“不能带着……逃脱”等等,暗指约伯曾被剥夺一切。
英文原文
20. UMBREIT translates, "His inward parts know no rest" from desires.
his belly--that is, peace inwardly.
not save--literally, "not escape with that which," &c., alluding to Job's having been stripped of his all.
21

21. look for——更宜作:“因为他的财物”,即兴盛不能持久。
英文原文
21. look for--rather, "because his goods," that is, prosperity shall have no endurance.
22
无标题
简体中文
22. shall be——更宜作:“他(觉得)被困迫”。下一句说明在何处。
wicked——更宜作:“可怜人(他所欺压的)的全手临到他”;即他欺压穷人的意识,如今转而以其全力(手)临到他。这使他在兴旺之中仍有“困迫”之感。
英文原文
22. shall be--rather, "he is (feeleth) straitened." The next clause explains in what respect.
wicked--Rather, "the whole hand of the miserable (whom he had oppressed) cometh upon him"; namely, the sense of his having oppressed the poor, now in turn comes with all its power (hand) on him. This caused his "straitened" feeling even in prosperity.
23
无标题
简体中文
23. 更宜译作:“神必将(愿神降下)[UMBREIT] 他怒气的狂暴以充满他的肚腹!”
while . . . eating——更宜作:“必为他的食物降在他身上!”火雨,即闪电\n (Ps 11:6;
暗指约伯的遭遇,\n Job 1:16)。
喻象之力,可通过想象沙漠中滋润之雨的相反性质而体会\n (Ex 16:4; Ps 68:9)。
英文原文
23. Rather, "God shall cast (may God send) [UMBREIT] upon him the fury of His wrath to fill his belly!"
while . . . eating--rather, "shall rain it upon him for his food!" Fiery rain, that is, lightning
(Ps 11:6;
alluding to Job's misfortune,
Job 1:16).
The force of the image is felt by picturing to one's self the opposite nature of a refreshing rain in the desert
(Ex 16:4; Ps 68:9).
24
无标题
简体中文
24. steel——更宜作:“黄铜”。恶人正逃避一种危险时,却从相反方向坠入更大的危险[UMBREIT]。
英文原文
24. steel--rather, "brass." While the wicked flees from one danger, he falls into a greater one from an opposite quarter [UMBREIT].
25
无标题
简体中文
25. It is drawn——更宜作:“他(神)拔出(剑,\n Jos 5:13)
(他一拔出)就从(罪人的)身体出来(即贯穿)”\n (De 32:41, 42; Eze 21:9, 10)。
闪烁的剑是闪电的佳喻。
gall——即他的生命\n (Job 16:13)。
“造成致命伤。”
terrors——琐法重述比勒达的话\n (Job 17:11; Ps 88:16; 55:4)。
英文原文
25. It is drawn--Rather, "He (God) draweth (the sword,
Jos 5:13)
and (no sooner has He done so, than) it cometh out of (that is, passes right through) the (sinner's) body"
(De 32:41, 42; Eze 21:9, 10).
The glittering sword is a happy image for lightning.
gall--that is, his life
(Job 16:13).
"Inflicts a deadly wound."
terrors--Zophar repeats Bildad's words
(Job 17:11; Ps 88:16; 55:4).
26
无标题

26. All darkness——即临到恶人的一切灾祸都要藏(为他预留)在他(神)的隐密处或宝库中\n (Jude 13; De 32:34)。
not blown——非由人手点燃,而是由神点燃\n (Isa 30:33;
七十士译本在亚历山大抄本中作“不灭之火”,\n Mt 3:12)。
三友的策略中,不明提,而以一般情形为名暗指约伯的灾祸;此处\n (Job 1:16)。UMBREIT 解释为:邪恶是一团“自燃之火”;其中藏着毁灭的原理。
ill . . . tabernacle——罪人的一切痕迹必须涂抹净尽\n (Job 18:15)。
英文原文
26. All darkness--that is, every calamity that befalls the wicked shall be hid (in store for him) in His (God's) secret places, or treasures
(Jude 13; De 32:34).
not blown--not kindled by man's hands, but by God's
(Isa 30:33;
the Septuagint in the Alexandrian Manuscript reads "unquenchable fire,"
Mt 3:12).
Tact is shown by the friends in not expressly mentioning, but alluding under color of general cases, to Job's calamities; here
(Job 1:16)
UMBREIT explains it, wickedness, is a "self-igniting fire"; in it lie the principles of destruction.
ill . . . tabernacle--Every trace of the sinner must be obliterated
(Job 18:15).

his wrath——神的。

28. increase--prosperity. Ill got--ill gone.
flow away--like waters that run dry in summer; using Job's own metaphor against himself
(Job 6:15-17; 2Sa 14:14; Mic 1:4).
