但願人可以為人與神分辯，正如世人為朋友辯白一樣。

愿人得与神辩白，如同人与朋友辩白一样；

愿人可与上帝理论，如同人与朋友一样；

愿人可与神理论，如同人与朋友一样；

但愿人与上帝之间有仲裁者，如同人与人之间。

但愿人可以为人与神分辩，正如世人为朋友辩白一样。

願人得與神辯白，如同人與朋友辯白一樣；

願人可與上帝理論，如同人與朋友一樣；

願人可與神理論，如同人與朋友一樣；

但願人與上帝之間有仲裁者，如同人與人之間。

但願人得以同上帝辯訴，就如同人跟朋友訴說一樣。

願上帝為人辨冤於其前、並在人之鄰里中、

願得在上帝前、明辨其冤、如與同儕言者然、

願世人得與天主辯論、如人與人辯論然、

on behalf of a man he pleads with God as one pleads for a friend.

He makes his appeal to God to help me as a person pleads for a friend.

that he would argue the case of a man with God, as a son of man does with his neighbor.

I need someone to mediate between God and me, as a person mediates between friends.

I wish that someone might argue for a man with God just as anyone would for a friend.

That one might plead for a man with God As a son of man with his neighbor!

Oh, that one might plead for a man with God, As a man pleads for his neighbor!

That he would maintain the right of a man with God, And of a son of man with his neighbor!

I wish that someone might arbitrate between a man and God just as a man pleads for his friend.

O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man[ pleadeth] for his neighbour!

and he contends with God on behalf of man as a man pleads for his friend.

that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbor!

那與他的創造主爭論的，有禍了！他不過是地上瓦片中的一片瓦片，泥土能對陶匠說：‘你在作甚麼？’或你所作成的說：‘他沒有手’嗎？

願他使他的刑杖離開我，願他可畏的威嚴不驚嚇我，我就說話，也不怕他，因為我本身並不是這種人。”

但我要對全能者說話，我願與神辯論。

耶和華又對約伯說：“挑剔是非的，怎能與全能者爭辯呢？責備神的，回答這個問題吧。”於是約伯回答耶和華說：“我是微小的，可以回答你甚麼呢？我只好用手掩口。這說了一次，不再回答；說了二次就不再說。”

但願有一位肯聽我的，看哪！這是我所劃的押，願全能者回答我，願那與我爭訟的寫好狀詞。

你這個人哪，你是誰，竟敢跟神頂嘴呢？被造的怎麼可以對造他的說：“你為甚麼把我做成這個樣子呢？”

但願我知道怎樣能尋見神，能到他的臺前來。好讓我在他面前呈上我的案件，滿口辯論向他申訴；知道他要回答我的話，明白他對我說甚麼。他會以大能與我相爭嗎？必不會這樣，他必關懷我。在他那裡正直人可以與他彼此辯論，這樣，我就必永遠擺脫那審判我的。

這樣，你一呼叫，我就回答，或是讓我說話，你回答我。

已經存在的，早已有了名稱；大家都知道人是怎樣的；人絕對無法與比自己強的抗辯。
