爾於天主前、自稱為義、或作爾言我義於天主又言我不犯罪亦何所裨、較犯罪有何所益、爾以為此言合乎理乎、

“你以为有理，或以为你的公义胜于神的公义，

“你以为这话有理，说：‘我在上帝面前是公义的。’

“你以为这话有理，说：‘我在神面前是公义的。’

“你在上帝面前自以为义，你认为这合理吗？

“你说：‘我在神面前更显为义’，你自以为这话有理吗？

你以為有理，或以為你的公義勝於神的公義，

「你以為這話有理，說：『我在上帝面前是公義的。』

「你以為這話有理，說：『我在神面前是公義的。』

「你在上帝面前自以為義，你認為這合理嗎？

“你說：‘我在神面前更顯為義’，你自以為這話有理嗎？

『你以為這樣說有理，你才說：「我的正義勝於上帝」；

爾以為有理、自謂我之義、愈於上帝之義乎、

爾於上帝前、自稱為義、爾又言、雖不犯罪、亦無所裨、斯言也、豈合乎理。

“ Do you think this is just? You say,‘ I am in the right, not God.’

“ Job, do you think it’s fair for you to say,‘ I am the one who is right, not God’?

“ Do you think this to be just? Do you say,‘ It is my right before God,’

“ Do you think it is right for you to claim,‘ I am righteous before God’?

Do you think it is just when you say,“ I am righteous before God”?

“ Do you think this is in accordance with justice? Do you say,‘ My righteousness is more than God’s’?

“ Do you think this is right? Do you say,‘ My righteousness is more than God’s’?

Thinkest thou this to be thy right, Or sayest thou, My righteousness is more than God’s,

Do you think it is just when you say,“ I am righteous before God”?

Thinkest thou this to be right,[ that] thou saidst, My righteousness[ is] more than God’s?

我告爾、凡人所出之虛言、審判日必被究詰、蓋據爾之言而稱爾以義、亦據爾之言而擬爾以罪、○

蓋擊我如暴風、無故降多災於我、

當知天主使我受苦、圍我以網羅、我因被屈哀告、不蒙對答、我雖呼號、不得伸冤、

爾豈可廢棄我命、爾因欲以己為是、而以我為非乎、爾因欲以己為是而以我為非乎或作爾以己為義以不義歸我乎

然我之手無不義、我之祈禱無不誠、誠原文作清潔

主人曰、惡哉僕也、我即以爾言判爾、爾既知我乃嚴人、未置者取之、未播者穫之、

我無辜、為主所知、乃無能援於主手者、

天主冤我、或作天主不為我伸冤全能之主苦我心、我指其永生而誓、生氣尚在我身、天主所賜之呼吸、尚在我鼻、我口不出惡言、舌不道虛詐、斷不以爾為是、至死不以己為不善、我固持我義、不敢捨棄、我在世之日、我心永不責我、我在世之日我心永不責我或作我畢生所為問心無愧

約百嘗言我乃義、天主不以公平待我、
