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

“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。

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、

But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.

Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but[ there is] no judgment.

Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?

Not for[ any] injustice in mine hands: also my prayer[ is] pure.

And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee,[ thou] wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:

Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and[ there is] none that can deliver out of thine hand.

[ As] God liveth,[ who] hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty,[ who] hath vexed my soul;All the while my breath[ is] in me, and the spirit of God[ is] in my nostrils;My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach[ me] so long as I live.

For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment.
