愿人可与上帝理论，如同人与朋友一样；

愿人得与神辩白，如同人与朋友辩白一样；

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。

但願人可以為人與神分辯，正如世人為朋友辯白一樣。

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!

“那与造他的主争论的人有祸了！他不过是地上瓦块中的一片。泥土岂可对塑造它的说：‘你做的是什么？你所做的物怎么没有把手呢？’

愿他使他的杖离开我，不使他的威严恐吓我，我就说话，不惧怕他；但对我来说，我却不是这样。”

然而我要对全能者说话，我愿与上帝理论。

耶和华继续对约伯说：“强辩的岂可与全能者争论？与上帝辩驳的可以回答吧！”于是，约伯回答耶和华说：“看哪，我是卑贱的！我用什么回答你呢？我只好用手捂住我的口。我说了一次，就不回答；说了两次，不再说了。”

惟愿有一位肯听我！看哪，我的记号，愿全能者回答我！愿那与我争讼的写下状词！

你这个人哪，你是谁，竟敢向上帝顶嘴呢？受造之物岂会对造他的说：“你为什么把我造成这样呢？”

惟愿我知道哪里可以寻见上帝，能到他的台前，我就在他面前陈明我的案件，满口辩诉。我必知道他回答我的言语，明白他向我所要说的。他岂用大能与我争辩呢？不！他必理会我。在那里正直人可以与他辩论，我就必永远脱离那审判我的。

这样，你呼叫，我就回答；或是让我说话，你回答我。

先前所有的，早已起了名，人早知道人是如何的，不能与比自己强壮的相争。
