1. 以利户又接着说， And Elihu added this and said,
2. 你再容我片时，我就指示你；因我还有话为神说。 Bear with me a little, and I will show you; For there is more to say for God.
3. 我要将所知道的从远处引来，将公义归给造我的主。 I will bring my knowledge from afar And will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
4. 我的言语真不虚谎；有一位知识全备的与你同在。 For truly my words are not false; One perfect in knowledge is with you.
5. 看哪，神有大能，并不藐视人；祂大有智慧的能力。 Indeed, God is mighty and does not despise; He is mighty in strength of understanding.
6. 祂不容恶人存活，却为困苦人伸冤。 He does not preserve the wicked man alive, But gives justice to the afflicted.
7. 祂的眼目时常看顾义人，祂使他们永远和君王同坐宝座，他们就得着高举。 He does not withdraw His eyes from the righteous; And with kings on the throne, He sets them forever, and they are exalted.
8. 他们若被锁炼捆住，被苦难的绳索缠住， And if they are bound in fetters, If they are caught in the cords of affliction,
9. 祂就把他们的作为和过犯指示他们，叫他们知道自己行动骄傲。 He shows them their work And their transgressions, that they have acted arrogantly.
10. 祂也开通他们的耳朵得受教训，吩咐他们离开罪孽转回。 He also opens their ear to instruction And commands that they return from iniquity.
11. 他们若听从事奉祂，就必度日亨通，历年福乐。 If they hear and serve Him, They will spend their days in prosperity And their years in pleasantness.
12. 若不听从，就要被刀杀灭，无知无识而死。 But if they do not hear, they will pass away by the sword And die without knowledge.
13. 但那心中不虔敬的人，积蓄怒气；神捆绑他们时，他们竟不呼救。 But those who are profane in heart lay up anger; They do not cry for help when He binds them.
14. 他们必在青年时死亡，与极污秽的人一样丧命。 They die in youth, And their life ends among the most defiled.
15. 神借着困苦人所受的困苦救拔他们，借着他们所受的欺压开通他们的耳朵。 He rescues the afflicted by their affliction And opens their ear through oppression.
16. 神也必引你出离患难的虎口，进入宽阔不狭窄之地；摆在你席上的，必满有肥甘。 Indeed He allures you from the jaws of distress Into a spacious place, where there is no constraint; And what is upon your table is full of fatness.
17. 但你满有恶人所当受的审判；判断和刑罚抓住了你。 But you are filled with the judgment of the wicked; Judgment and litigation have taken hold of you.
18. 不可容忿怒触动你侮慢神，也不可因赎价大就偏行。 Beware lest wrath allures you into scoffing, And do not let the greatness of the ransom turn you aside.
19. 你的呼救，或是你一切的势力，能叫你不受患难么？ Will your cry keep you from being in distress, Or all the forces of your strength?
20. 不要切慕黑夜，就是众民在本处被除灭的时候。 Do not long for the night, When people are taken from their place.
21. 你要谨慎，不可转向罪孽；因你选择罪孽，过于选择苦难。 Take heed; do not turn toward iniquity; For you have chosen this rather than affliction.
22. 看哪，神因自己的能力被高举：教训人的，有谁像祂？ Indeed, God is exalted in His power: Who is a teacher like Him?
23. 谁派定祂的道路？谁说，你所行的不义？ Who has appointed His way for Him? And who says, You have done wrong?
24. 你要记得称赞祂所行的为大，就是人所歌颂的。 Remember to magnify His work, Of which men sing.
25. 祂所行的，万人都看见；世人都从远处观看。 All mankind has gazed on it; Man beholds it from afar.
26. 看哪，神为大，我们不能知晓；祂的年数不能测度。 Indeed, God is great, and we do not know Him; The number of His years we also cannot search out.
27. 祂吸取水点，这水点从祂的云雾中滴下成雨； For He draws up the drops of water Which distill into rain from His mist,
28. 云霓将雨落下，沛然降与世人。 Which the skies pour down And drop upon man abundantly.
29. 人真能明白云彩如何铺张，神的帷幕如何发出雷声么？ Can they indeed understand the spreading of the clouds, The thunderings of His pavilion?
30. 祂将闪电布散在自己四围，又遮覆海底。 Indeed, He scatters His lightning around Him And covers the roots of the sea.
31. 祂用这些审判众民，且赐丰富的粮食。 For by these He judges the peoples; He gives food in abundance.
32. 祂以闪电遮手，命闪电击中目标。 He fills His hands with lightning And commands it to strike the mark.
33. 所发的雷声将祂指明；牲畜也指明祂要来了。 Its noise tells of Him; The cattle as well tell concerning Him who is coming.
