I don’t have the power to help myself. All hope of success has been taken away from me.

在我岂不是毫无帮助吗？智慧岂不是从我心中赶出净尽吗？

在我里面岂不是无助吗？智慧岂不是从我心中被赶逐吗？

在我里面岂不是无助吗？智慧岂不是从我心中被赶逐吗？

我毫无自救之力，已到穷途末路。

我里面不是无能自助吗？见识不是离我而去吗？

在我豈不是毫無幫助嗎？智慧豈不是從我心中趕出淨盡嗎？

在我裏面豈不是無助嗎？智慧豈不是從我心中被趕逐嗎？

在我裏面豈不是無助嗎？智慧豈不是從我心中被趕逐嗎？

我毫無自救之力，已到窮途末路。

我裡面不是無能自助嗎？見識不是離我而去嗎？

唉，我自己裏面真是毫無助力呀；謀略的成功都從我身上被趕走了。

我中非無輔助乎、我智非盡屏除乎、

既竭我力、不能自救。

拯己不能、救護我者遠離、或作因我不能自救則視為無知乎

Do I have any power to help myself, now that success has been driven from me?

Have I any help in me, when resource is driven from me?

No, I am utterly helpless, without any chance of success.

Since I cannot help myself, the hope for success has been banished from me.

Is it that my help is not within me, And that a good outcome is driven away from me?

Is my help not within me? And is success driven from me?

Is it not that I have no help in me, And that wisdom is driven quite from me?

“ Bildad, you haven’t helped people who aren’t strong! You haven’t saved people who are weak!

Here is what we take pride in. Our sense of what is right and wrong tells us how we have acted. We have lived with honor and godly honesty. We have depended on God’s grace and not on the world’s wisdom. We lived that way most of all when we were dealing with you.

What you know, I also know. I’m as clever as you are.

“ You might say,‘ Let’s keep bothering Job. After all, he’s the cause of all his suffering.’

“ You people think you are the only ones who matter! You are sure that wisdom will die with you!But I have a brain, just like you. I’m as clever as you are. In fact, everyone knows as much as you do.

Each person should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves. They won’t be comparing themselves to someone else.
