看哪，他使水止住，水就干了；他把水放出，水就淹没大地。

止水則水涸、使水流出則氾濫於地、氾濫於地原文作翻地

If he holds back the waters, there is drought; if he lets them loose, they devastate the land.

If he holds back the water, everything dries up. If he lets the water loose, it floods the land.

If he withholds the waters, they dry up; if he sends them out, they overwhelm the land.

If he holds back the rain, the earth becomes a desert. If he releases the waters, they flood the earth.

When he withholds water, everything dries up, and when he releases it, it destroys the land.

Behold, He restrains the waters, and they dry up; And He sends them out, and they inundate the earth.

If He withholds the waters, they dry up; If He sends them out, they overwhelm the earth.

Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up; Again, he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.

When He withholds the waters, everything dries up, and when He releases them, they destroy the land.

Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.

If he holds back the waters, then they dry up; if he releases them, they destroy the land.

基列之的庇人、以利亞告亞哈曰、我指所事以色列族之上帝耶和華而誓、今以後、數年間雨露不降、惟我言是聽。

二證能閉塞穹蒼、傳道時、甘霖不沛、亦能變水成血、無論其時、任意降災、

今當求我、我造昴參諸宿、變陰翳為光明、轉白晝為昏夜、使海水泛濫於地、我名耶和華。

一叱咤而海水涸、汲道絕矣、巴山加密已荒蕪矣、利巴嫩之榮華、倏然凋謝矣、

獸之生命、人之性靈、操自上帝。

如人獲罪於爾、使天閉塞、雨澤不降、至殿祈禱、呼籲爾名、緣遘患難、去厥罪愆、則爾在天、俯聞其聲、赦宥爾僕、即以色列族之民、指示以善、所錫之地、降以膏澤。

適挪亞六百歲、二月十七日、巨淵出其泉、穹蒼破其隙、霪雨四旬、晝夜不息。當是日、挪亞率妻及子、閃、含、雅弗、與三媳、皆登方舟。百獸、六畜、昆蟲、飛鳥、諸族、凡有血氣者、牝牡各一、遵上帝命、就挪亞登方舟、耶和華遂閉其門。○上帝眷念挪亞、以及在舟之百獸、六畜、令風吹地、水勢漸平、淵塞其泉、天彌其隙、霪雨以止。

以利亞與我儕有同情、昔求不雨、果旱、歷三載有半、厥後求雨、而天降甘霖、草木甲坼、

我真實告爾、昔以利亞時、天閉塞三年有半、徧地大饑、以色列民間多嫠、

上帝謂挪亞曰、緣世億兆、暴虐徧行、我必翦滅、使之云亡。○

主發雷聲、叱咤波濤、水奔騰而盡退兮、山岡峙立、平原奠定、水歸厥所兮、主立堤防以為限、水不能過、無復有淹決之虞兮、

異邦人所奉之偶像、豈能使天沛以膏澤、降以甘霖、爾耶和華為我上帝、肇造萬物、故我賴爾。

我必令洪水氾濫於地、翦滅億兆、天下凡有血氣者、必淪胥以亡。

恐耶和華震怒、使天地閉塞、霖雨不降、物產不生、雖在耶和華所賜之腴壤、而爾滅亡甚速。
