约伯记第33章

《圣经》约伯记-第33章

伯33:1 约伯啊，请听我的话，留心听我一切的言语。

†[吕]“然而约伯阿，请听我的话语；请侧耳听我一切的话。

†[思]约伯，请你且听我的话，侧耳静听我说的一切。

†[当代]“约伯啊！请听我说。

†[新译]“可是，约伯啊，请听我的言语，留心听我的一切话。

†[Wlb]约伯乎、请听我言、悉聆我语、

†[Xdv]乔布啊，现在请听我的话；留心听我所说的一切。

†[Kjv]Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words.

†[Nkjv]"But please, Job, hear my speech, And listen to all my words.

†[BBE]And now, O Job, give ear to my words, and take note of all I say.

†[GNT] And now, Job, listen carefully to all that I have to say.

†[NIV]But now, Job, listen to my words; pay attention to everything I say.

本会注释　　本章是对约伯讲的。主要是为了让约伯认识到他对受苦的看法是错误的。约伯的朋友们认为苦难是惩罚。约伯不同意。他似乎认为苦难只是显示了上帝的主权。以利户觉得约伯和他朋友们的看法都是不正确的。他相信苦难的真正宗旨是为了洁净，加强，改进，启发和培养信心，达到拯救的目的。

伯33:2 我现在开口，用舌发言。 (串)伯3:1诗78:2

†[吕]看哪，我现在开口，我舌头在我口中发言呢。

†[思]请看，我已开口，舌头已在口腔内发言。

†[当代]我已经开了口，就让我说下去吧！

†[新译]我现在开口，用舌头发言；

†[Wlb]我今启口、鼓舌而谈、

†[Xdv]我要把心里想说的话一一倾吐出来。

†[Kjv]Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth.

†[Nkjv]Now, I open my mouth; My tongue speaks in my mouth.

†[BBE]See, now my mouth is open, my tongue gives out words.

†[GNT] I am ready to say what's on my mind.

†[NIV]I am about to open my mouth; my words are on the tip of my tongue.

伯33:3 我的言语要发明心中所存的正直；我所知道的，我嘴唇要诚实地说出。

†[吕]我说的话流露出我心中之正直；我咀唇所知道的、它就清洁无伪地说出。

†[思]我的话是出于正直的心，我的唇舌要清楚说明真理。

†[当代]我要按照自己所知道的清心直说，

†[新译]我的话表明我心中的正直，我所知道的，我的嘴唇就诚诚实实地说出来。

†[Wlb]我言必显中心之正、我唇实陈所知、

†[Xdv]我的话出于至诚；我说的是诚实话。

†[Kjv]My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.

†[Nkjv]My words come from my upright heart; My lips utter pure knowledge.

†[BBE]My heart is overflowing with knowledge, my lips say what is true.

†[GNT] All my words are sincere, and I am speaking the truth.

†[NIV]My words come from an upright heart; my lips sincerely speak what I know.

伯33:4 上帝的灵造我；全能者的气使我得生。 (串)伯32:8|创2:7伯27:3结37:9徒17:25

†[吕]上帝的灵造了我，全能者的气使我活着。

†[思]天主的神造了我，全能者的气息使我生活。

†[当代]因为上帝的灵创造了我，全能者的气息赋予我生命。

†[新译]　神的灵创造了我，全能者的气使我存活。

†[Wlb]上帝之神造我、全能者之气生我、

†[Xdv]上帝的灵造了我；全能者赐给我生命。

†[Kjv]The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.

†[Nkjv]The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

†[BBE]The spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Ruler of all gives me life.

†[GNT] God's spirit made me and gave me life.

†[NIV]The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

本会注释　　上帝的能力创造了他，赐给他生命（见创2:7）。

伯33:5 你若回答我，就站起来，在我面前陈明。 (串)本章32|伯13:18;23:4诗5:3

†[吕]你若能够，请答覆我；在我面前摆列；请站出来。

†[思]你如果能够，就回答我，请准备好，来对抗我。

†[当代]如果你能反驳我，就不用犹疑。

†[新译]你若能够办得到，就回答我，用话语攻击我，表明立场，当面攻击我。

†[Wlb]如能之、则答我、起而陈尔言于我前、

†[Xdv]如果你有话，就答复我；请准备你的答辩。

†[Kjv]If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up.

†[Nkjv]If you can answer me, Set your words in order before me; Take your stand.

†[BBE]If you are able, give me an answer; put your cause in order, and come forward.

†[GNT] Answer me if you can. Prepare your arguments.

†[NIV]Answer me then, if you can; prepare yourself and confront me.

本会注释　　以利户承诺，他与约伯之间的讨论将会公正地进行。他不想指责和压服约伯。他承认约伯有权利回答他或反对他。

伯33:6 我在上帝面前与你一样，也是用土造成。 (串)伯10:8诗119:73

†[吕]你看我，我在上帝面前、也同你一样；我也是由抟泥被捏成的。

†[思]看，我与你在天主前都是一样，我也是用泥土造成的。

†[当代]在上帝面前，我和你都是用泥土造成的，

†[新译]在　神面前我与你一样，也是用土捏造的。

†[Wlb]我于上帝前、与尔相同、亦由土而成、

†[Xdv]我们在上帝面前都一样；你我都是用尘土造成。

†[Kjv]Behold, I am according to thy wish in God's stead: I also am formed out of the clay.

†[Nkjv]Truly I am as your spokesman before God; I also have been formed out of clay.

†[BBE]See, I am the same as you are in the eyes of God; I was cut off from the same bit of wet earth.

†[GNT] You and I are the same in God's sight, both of us were formed from clay.

†[NIV]I am just like you before God; I too have been taken from clay.

本会注释　　以利户强调自己没有什么优越感。他在确立自己信息的基础时，先把自己隐藏起来。

伯33:7 我不用威严惊吓你，也不用势力重压你。 (串)伯31:23|伯13:11

†[吕]阿，别让惧怕我的心使你惊惶呀！我必不将压力重加于你。

†[思]所以我的威吓不会使你恐怖，我的手也不会重压在你身上。

†[当代]所以你不用怕我，我不会用威严来恐吓你，也不会用势力来压迫你。

†[新译]我的威严必不惊吓你，我的压力也不加重在你身上。

†[Wlb]我不以威惊吓尔、亦不以势重压尔、

†[Xdv]所以你用不着怕我；我不会向你施压力。

†[Kjv]Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee.

†[Nkjv]Surely no fear of me will terrify you, Nor will my hand be heavy on you.

†[BBE]Fear of me will not overcome you, and my hand will not be hard on you.

†[GNT] So you have no reason to fear me; I will not overpower you.

†[NIV]No fear of me should alarm you, nor should my hand be heavy upon you.

本会注释　　威严。以利户叫约伯不要怕他。
　　用势力重压。以利户不想把自己的观点强加于人。

伯33:8 你所说的，我听见了，也听见你的言语，说：

†[吕]“阿，你真地说给我听了；你的话语的声音我听见了：你说：

†[思]你所说的，我已耳闻，听到了你所说的话：“

†[当代]你不断地重复申诉，我也听见你整天在说：

†[新译]你所说的，我已经听见了，也听到你言语的声音，说：

†[Wlb]我耳曾闻尔声、听尔言云、

†[Xdv]你说的这些话，我都亲耳听见了。

†[Kjv]Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying,

†[Nkjv]"Surely you have spoken in my hearing, And I have heard the sound of your words, saying,

†[BBE]But you said in my hearing, and your voice came to my ears:

†[GNT] Now this is what I heard you say:

†[NIV]But you have said in my hearing- I heard the very words-

本会注释　　以利户提醒约伯自己所说过的话。他似乎想用约伯的话来说服他。

伯33:9 我是清洁无过的，我是无辜的；在我里面也没有罪孽。 (串)伯11:4;16:17|伯34:6

†[吕]‘我，我纯洁、无罪过；我清白，我心里无罪愆。

†[思]我本纯洁无罪，清白无瑕。

†[当代]‘我是清白无辜的，我没有犯罪！’

†[新译]‘我是洁净的，毫无过犯；我是清白的，没有罪孽。

†[Wlb]我清洁无过、无辜无愆、

†[Xdv]你说：我无辜，没有犯什么过错；我清白，没有犯什么罪。

†[Kjv]I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.

†[Nkjv]"I am pure, without transgression; I am innocent, and there is no iniquity in me.

†[BBE]I am clean, without sin; I am washed, and there is no evil in me:

†[GNT] "I am not guilty; I have done nothing wrong. I am innocent and free from sin.

†[NIV]I am pure and without sin; I am clean and free from guilt.

本会注释　　这是夸大其辞。约伯从未说过自己是绝对清白的（见伯7:20,21；9:28；13:26；14:4,17）。他的确说自己没有犯朋友们所指控的大罪。但他没有说自己一点儿罪也没有。

伯33:10 上帝找机会攻击我，以我为仇敌， (串)伯13:24

†[吕]但你看，上帝找衅隙来攻击我，拿我当为他的仇敌，

†[思]但天主却在我身上找错，视我为他的对头；

†[当代]你埋怨上帝吹毛求疵，与你作对。

†[新译]　神找机会攻击我，把我当作仇敌；

†[Wlb]上帝寻隙攻我、视我为敌、

†[Xdv]然而，上帝找机会打击我，把我当仇敌看待。

†[Kjv]Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,

†[Nkjv]Yet He finds occasions against me, He counts me as His enemy;

†[BBE]See, he is looking for something against me; in his eyes I am as one of his haters;

†[GNT] But God finds excuses for attacking me and treats me like an enemy.

†[NIV]Yet God has found fault with me; he considers me his enemy.

本会注释　　见伯16:9；19:11。

伯33:11 把我的脚上了木狗，窥察我一切的道路。 (串)伯13:27徒16:24|伯14:16;31:4

†[吕]他把我的脚上了木狗，窥察我一切的行径。’

†[思]他把我的脚缚在木桩上，窥察我的一切行动。”

†[当代]你说：‘祂把我的脚铐住，然后监视我的一举一动。’

†[新译]他把我的两脚上了木狗，又鉴察我一切所行的。’

†[Wlb]桎我足、察我径、

†[Xdv]他用铁链锁住我的脚；他窥伺我的每一个行动。

†[Kjv]He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths.

†[Nkjv]He puts my feet in the stocks, He watches all my paths.'

†[BBE]He puts chains on my feet; he is watching all my ways.

†[GNT] He binds chains on my feet; he watches every move I make."

†[NIV]He fastens my feet in shackles; he keeps close watch on all my paths.'

本会注释　　见伯13:27。

伯33:12 我要回答你说：你这话无理，因上帝比世人更大。

†[吕]“阿，你这话不对，我要回答你：上帝比世人大。

†[思]我答覆你说：你这话说的不对，因为天主远超世人。

†[当代]好吧！让我来答覆你：就这件事来说，你这样埋怨上帝，已经是犯罪了，因为上帝比世人更伟大。

†[新译]我要告诉你，你这话错了，因为　神比世人大。

†[Wlb]我则应之曰、尔言此、不义矣、盖上帝卓越于人、

†[Xdv]但乔布啊，我告诉你，你错了；上帝比任何人都伟大。

†[Kjv]Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.

†[Nkjv]"Look, in this you are not righteous. I will answer you, For God is greater than man.

†[BBE]Truly, in saying this you are wrong; for God is greater than man.

†[GNT] But I tell you, Job, you are wrong. God is greater than any human being.

†[NIV]But I tell you, in this you are not right, for God is greater than man.

本会注释　　在8-11节中，以利户归纳了约伯的观点。现在他对约伯的立场提出质疑。他的第一个论点是：“上帝比世人更大”。力量不等于正义。用力量来为上帝辩护，说祂可以任意而行，这种做法并不高明。

伯33:13 你为何与他争论呢？因他的事都不对人解说？

†[吕]你为什么和他争论、说：‘他总不回答人的话’呢？

†[思]他既不答覆你说的一切话，你为何还同他争辩？

†[当代]你怎可以因为祂不向你解释祂自己的作为，就与祂争论呢？

†[新译]你为什么对　神争辩，说：‘无论世人的什么话，他都不回答’呢？

†[Wlb]胡为与之争、其所行者、不自陈述、

†[Xdv]你为什么指责上帝，说他总不答复人的申诉呢？

†[Kjv]Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.

†[Nkjv]Why do you contend with Him? For He does not give an accounting of any of His words.

†[BBE]Why do you put forward your cause against him, saying, He gives no answer to any of my words?

†[GNT] Why do you accuse God of never answering our complaints?

†[NIV]Why do you complain to him that he answers none of man's words ?

本会注释　　以利户强调与上帝争论是徒然的。上帝按自己认为最好的方式去做，不需要解释理由。上帝就像一位父亲，做事有祂的理由，但不一定告诉祂的儿女。

伯33:14 上帝说一次、两次，世人却不理会。 (串)伯40:5诗62:11

†[吕]其实上帝用一种方法、说话，人却不留意呢。

†[思]原来天主用一种方法向人讲话，人若不理会，他再用另一种方法：

†[当代]上帝向世人重复地说话，他们却不理会祂，

†[新译]原来　神用这个方法或那个方法说了，只是，世人没有留意。

†[Wlb]上帝言之、而人弗顾、又复言之、

†[Xdv]上帝一再开口，但是没有人留心听他的话。

†[Kjv]For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.

†[Nkjv]For God may speak in one way, or in another, Yet man does not perceive it.

†[BBE]For God gives his word in one way, even in two, and man is not conscious of it:

†[GNT] Although God speaks again and again, no one pays attention to what he says.

†[NIV]For God does speak-now one way, now another-though man may not perceive it.

本会注释　　上帝对人说话有许多途径，但人不一定能识别上帝的声音。约伯曾要求上帝回答（伯10:2；13:22；23:5）。以利户认为上帝正用不同的方式对约伯说话。在下面几节里他做了解释。

伯33:15 人躺在床上沉睡的时候，上帝就用梦和夜间的异象， (串)伯4:13撒上3:2-9|民12:6

†[吕]当世人睡在床上眯眯沉睡时，在梦中或夜间的异象中、

†[思]天主有时藉梦和夜间的异像，当人躺在床上沉睡的时候，

†[当代]于是当人躺在床上沉睡的时候，祂就用梦境和夜间的异象开启他们的耳朵，赐给他们智慧和教训，

†[新译]世人都在床上打盹，沉睡临到他们的时候，　神用异梦与夜间的异象，

†[Wlb]乃于人酣寝、偃卧在床时、以梦与夜间之异象示之、

†[Xdv]夜间人沉睡的时候，上帝在梦中，在异象中说话。

†[Kjv]In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;

†[Nkjv]In a dream, in a vision of the night, When deep sleep falls upon men, While slumbering on their beds,

†[BBE]In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep comes on men, while they take their rest on their beds;

†[GNT] At night when people are asleep, God speaks in dreams and visions.

†[NIV]In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men as they slumber in their beds,

本会注释　　见创20:3-7；31:11,24；41:1-7,25；民12:6；王上3:5；但2:1,29；但4:5-18；太1:20；2:13,19节。

伯33:16 开通他们的耳朵，将当受的教训印在他们心上， (串)伯36:10,15诗40:6赛50:4-5

†[吕]上帝开启世人的耳朵，用警告惊吓他，

†[思]开启人的听觉，用异像惊吓他，

†[当代]－

†[新译]告诉他们，他坚定他们所得的训诲，

†[Wlb]启人之耳、以坚厥训、

†[Xdv]他使他们听见他的话，用警告惊吓他们。

†[Kjv]Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,

†[Nkjv]Then He opens the ears of men, And seals their instruction.

†[BBE]Then he makes his secrets clear to men, so that they are full of fear at what they see;

†[GNT] He makes them listen to what he says, and they are frightened at his warnings.

†[NIV]he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings,

本会注释　　有人根据七十士译本“祂用可怕的异象恐吓他们”，改变了希伯来语的原意（见本书卷一34页）。

伯33:17 好叫人不从自己的谋算，不行骄傲的事（原文作将骄傲向人隐藏）， (串)伯36:9

†[吕]好叫人转离恶行，又好割掉（传统：遮掩）人的骄傲；

†[思]使人脱离恶念，使人铲除骄傲，

†[当代]使他们洗心革面，不再骄傲，以免堕入陷阱之中。”

†[新译]好叫人离开自己的恶行，又叫人与骄傲隔绝，

†[Wlb]使人改其意志、遏其骄矜、

†[Xdv]上帝发言，要人离弃罪行，使他们不至于自高自大。

†[Kjv]That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.

†[Nkjv]In order to turn man from his deed, And conceal pride from man,

†[BBE]In order that man may be turned from his evil works, and that pride may be taken away from him;

†[GNT] God speaks to make them stop their sinning and to save them from becoming proud.

†[NIV]to turn man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride,

本会注释　　本节显示上一节教训的宗旨。上帝尽力使人转离错行，并医好他骄傲的心。

伯33:18 拦阻人不陷于坑里，不死在刀下。 (串)伯36:12

†[吕]拦阻人的性命不陷于冥坑，使他的生命不过去到阴间（传统：兵器）。

†[思]阻拦他陷于阴府，救他的性命脱离沟壑。

†[当代]－

†[新译]拦阻人的性命不下在坑里，又阻止他的生命不死在刀下。

†[Wlb]以救其魂不陷于坑坎、其命不亡于锋刃、

†[Xdv]他不愿见他们下阴间；他要拯救他们脱离死亡。

†[Kjv]He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

†[Nkjv]He keeps back his soul from the Pit, And his life from perishing by the sword.

†[BBE]To keep back his soul from the underworld, and his life from destruction.

†[GNT] He will not let them be destroyed; he saves them from death itself.

†[NIV]to preserve his soul from the pit, his life from perishing by the sword.

本会注释　　进一步说明上帝警告的目的。上帝用这些警告救人脱离毁灭。

伯33:19 人在床上被惩治，骨头中不住地疼痛， (串)伯30:17

†[吕]“人在床上被管教于苦痛中，他骨头的挣扎常年不断；

†[思]天主也有时惩罚人在床上受痛苦，使他的骨头不断的刺痛，

†[当代]“另一方面，人在床上受到疾病和痛苦的惩治，

†[新译]人在床上被痛苦惩治，他的骨头不住地痛苦挣扎，

†[Wlb]人卧于床、被惩以苦、骨中疼痛、历久不已、

†[Xdv]上帝用疾病纠正人的过失，用身体的痛苦管教他。

†[Kjv]He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:

†[Nkjv]"Man is also chastened with pain on his bed, And with strong pain in many of his bones,

†[BBE]Pain is sent on him as a punishment, while he is on his bed; there is no end to the trouble in his bones;

†[GNT] God corrects us by sending sickness and filling our bodies with pain.

†[NIV]Or a man may be chastened on a bed of pain with constant distress in his bones,

本会注释　　以利户越来越接近约伯问题的实质。他表达了自己对痛苦的看法。他认为上帝让人受苦是有着慈爱的宗旨。痛苦不是惩罚，而是试炼。以利户的讲话是步步深入的。他先说梦，然后说警告，再说痛苦。把痛苦视为试炼并不是一种全新的观点。以利法在伯5:17中曾经提到过。但以利户进一步阐述了这个观点，这是以利法所没有做到的。至于痛苦的试炼，见诗119:67,71,75。

伯33:20 以致他的口厌弃食物，心厌恶美味。 (串)诗107:18|箴23:6

†[吕]以致他生活中厌弃食物，他的胃口厌恶美味。

†[思]以致他讨厌食物，他的心厌恶美味。

†[当代]以致完全没有食欲，佳肴美点也提不起他的兴趣；

†[新译]以致他的生命厌恶食物，他的胃口也厌恶美食，

†[Wlb]灵厌食物、心恶珍馐、

†[Xdv]患病的人失掉胃口，连最好的食物也觉得厌恶。

†[Kjv]So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.

†[Nkjv]So that his life abhors bread, And his soul succulent food.

†[BBE]He has no desire for food, and his soul is turned away from delicate meat;

†[GNT] Those who are sick lose their appetites, and even the finest food looks revolting.

†[NIV]so that his very being finds food repulsive and his soul loathes the choicest meal.

本会注释　　指痛苦的严重性。约伯的痛苦使他对原来给他带来享受的东西，如美味佳肴，失去了一切兴趣。

伯33:21 他的肉消瘦，不得再见；先前不见的骨头都凸出来。 (串)诗22:17

†[吕]他皮肉消瘦，很是难看；素常不见的骨头都凸出来。

†[思]他身上的肉已消逝不见，他枯瘦的骨头，已开始外露。

†[当代]他日渐瘦弱，只剩下皮和骨，已经接近死亡了。”

†[新译]他的肌肉消瘦以致看不见，以前看不见的骨头，现在都凸出来。

†[Wlb]肉消不见、素未显露之骨、亦皆凸出、

†[Xdv]他的皮肉消瘦，骨头都凸出来。

†[Kjv]His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.

†[Nkjv]His flesh wastes away from sight, And his bones stick out which once were not seen.

†[BBE]His flesh is so wasted away, that it may not be seen, and his bones. ...

†[GNT] Their bodies waste away to nothing; you can see all their bones;

†[NIV]His flesh wastes away to nothing, and his bones, once hidden, now stick out.

本会注释　　本节继续描述约伯所理解的痛苦。

伯33:22 他的灵魂临近深坑；他的生命近于灭命的。 (串)本章24,28,30

†[吕]他的牲命临近冥坑，他的生命近于灭命者。

†[思]他的灵魂已临近墓穴，他的生命已接近死亡之所。

†[当代]－

†[新译]他的性命接近深坑，他的生命靠近灭命的天使。

†[Wlb]其魂临乎坑坎、其命近于殄灭、

†[Xdv]他的灵魂接近冥府；他的生命临近死亡的边缘。

†[Kjv]Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.

†[Nkjv]Yes, his soul draws near the Pit, And his life to the executioners.

†[BBE]And his soul comes near to the underworld, and his life to the angels of death.

†[GNT] they are about to go to the world of the dead.

†[NIV]His soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the messengers of death.

本会注释　　深坑。希伯来语是shachath，在18节中译为“坑”。约伯一再表示他快要死了。
　　灭命的。可能指实施惩罚的天使（见撒下24:16,17）。或者指结束生命的痛苦。

伯33:23 一千天使中，若有一个作传话的与上帝同在，指示人所当行的事， (串)传7:28|创16:7-12;22:11诗34:7玛3:1|创42:23|结18:21-22

†[吕]若有一位使者伺候着他，若千位中有一位传话者，将人该行的正当事指示他，

†[思]一千天使中，若有一个在他身傍，作他的代言人，提醒他应行的义务，

†[当代]“可是，假如有一位天使能像朋友一样为他求情，指出他当做的，上帝就会怜悯他，说：‘释放他吧！不要使他堕入死亡的深坑里，我已得到他犯罪的赎价了。’

†[新译]在一千位天使之中，若有一位作人的中保，指示人当行的事，

†[Wlb]设有天使千中之一、与之同在、为之解释、示人所当为者、

†[Xdv]上帝的千万天使中，或者有一位来帮助他，指示人所该尽的本份。

†[Kjv]If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:

†[Nkjv]"If there is a messenger for him, A mediator, one among a thousand, To show man His uprightness,

†[BBE]If now there may be an angel sent to him, one of the thousands which there are to be between him and God, and to make clear to man what is right for him;

†[GNT] Perhaps an angel may come to their aid - one of God's thousands of angels, who remind us of our duty.

†[NIV]Yet if there is an angel on his side as a mediator, one out of a thousand, to tell a man what is right for him,

本会注释　　传话的。希伯来语是mal'ak（“天使”或“使者”）。本处可视为描述弥赛亚的工作（见《教育论》115页；参《先祖与先知》366页）。
　　所当行的事。即所当走的路（见约16:8）。

伯33:24 上帝就给他开恩，说：救赎他免得下坑；我已经得了赎价。 (串)伯36:18诗49:7

†[吕]上帝若向他开恩，说：‘赎救他免下冥坑；我已为他的性命得了赎价；

†[思]且怜悯那人，为他转求说：“求你拯救他，以免陷于阴府，因为我已找到了赎金。”

†[当代]－

†[新译]恩待他，说：‘救赎他免下深坑；我已经得到了赎价。’

†[Wlb]则上帝悯之曰、可援之、免其陷于坑坎、我得一赎之者矣、

†[Xdv]由于怜悯，天使说：释放他吧，他不必往死亡的深坑去；我有赎金可买回他的自由。

†[Kjv]Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.

†[Nkjv]Then He is gracious to him, and says, "Deliver him from going down to the Pit; I have found a ransom';

†[BBE]And if he has mercy on him, and says, Let him not go down to the underworld, I have given the price for his life:

†[GNT] In mercy the angel will say, "Release them! They are not to go down to the world of the dead. Here is the ransom to set them free."

†[NIV]to be gracious to him and say, 'Spare him from going down to the pit ; I have found a ransom for him'-

本会注释　　赎价。希伯来语是kopher，派生出动词kaphar，通常译为“救赎”。

伯33:25 他的肉要比孩童的肉更嫩；他就返老还童。 (串)王下5:14

†[吕]让他的肉比孩童的肉更嫩；让他回到他青春之日。’

†[思]他的肉身比少年人的肉身必更健美，他的青春岁月又恢复了。

†[当代]那时，他的身体会比少年人更健康，那分青春的劲力又再出现了。

†[新译]他的肌肉就比孩童的更嫩，他更恢复满有青春活力的日子。

†[Wlb]其肤光润、胜于幼稚、转为少年、

†[Xdv]他的身体要返老还童；他青春的岁月又回来了。

†[Kjv]His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth:

†[Nkjv]His flesh shall be young like a child's, He shall return to the days of his youth.

†[BBE]Then his flesh becomes young again, and he comes back to the days of his early strength;

†[GNT] Their bodies will grow young and strong again;

†[NIV]then his flesh is renewed like a child's; it is restored as in the days of his youth.

本会注释　　本节继续从24节开始的对“使者”工作的讲述：使“他的肉要变得比孩童的肉更嫩”。惩罚已经完成了它的任务，接着要进行医治。新长的肉要比孩童更嫩，与约伯的病痛形成鲜明的对比（见王下5:14）。

伯33:26 他祷告上帝，上帝就喜悦他，使他欢呼朝见上帝的面；上帝又看他为义。 (串)伯22:27|诗11:7;17:15

†[吕]那么他要向上帝恳求，上帝就喜悦他，使他以欢呼朝见自己；又将自己的义气恢复与人。

†[思]他祈求天主，必获得悦纳。他必欢乐得见天主的仪容，天主也必恢复他的正义。

†[当代]他祷告，上帝就回答他，喜悦地接待他，又恢复他的职分。

†[新译]他向　神祈求，　神就喜悦他，他也欢呼着朝见　神的面，人又恢复自己的义。

†[Wlb]祈祷上帝、蒙其悦纳、使之欢然觐见、而复其人之义、

†[Xdv]他祷告，上帝要应答；他要以愉快的心敬拜上帝；上帝要再跟他恢复正常的关系。

†[Kjv]He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.

†[Nkjv]He shall pray to God, and He will delight in him, He shall see His face with joy, For He restores to man His righteousness.

†[BBE]He makes his prayer to God, and he has mercy on him; he sees God's face with cries of joy; he gives news of his righteousness to men;

†[GNT] when they pray, God will answer; they will worship God with joy; God will set things right for them again.

†[NIV]He prays to God and finds favor with him, he sees God's face and shouts for joy; he is restored by God to his righteous state.

本会注释　　以利户尽力描绘一幅令人鼓舞的画面，反映苦难的训练所带来的结果。在痛苦和悲伤的经历之后，将会有与上帝的沟通，喜乐和公义。

伯33:27 他在人前歌唱说：我犯了罪，颠倒是非，这竟与我无益。 (串)撒下12:13诗106:6路15:21约壹1:9

†[吕]这人在别人面前歌唱说：‘我犯了罪，屈狂了正直，却没有受该得的报。

†[思]那时，他将在人前重述所经历的事说：“我犯了罪，颠倒了是非，但他没有照我的罪罚我。

†[当代]于是他就会向朋友宣布：‘虽然我犯了罪，但上帝释放了我。

†[新译]他在人面前歌唱，说：‘我犯了罪，颠倒是非，但我没有受到应得的报应。

†[Wlb]彼则歌于人前曰、昔我干罪、颠覆正义、所为无益、

†[Xdv]他要公开地承认：我有罪了，我颠倒是非；但上帝没有照我的罪惩罚我。

†[Kjv]He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;

†[Nkjv]Then he looks at men and says, "I have sinned, and perverted what was right, And it did not profit me.'

†[BBE]He makes a song, saying, I did wrong, turning from the straight way, but he did not give me the reward of my sin.

†[GNT] Each one will say in public, "I have sinned. I have not done right, but God spared me.

†[NIV]Then he comes to men and says, 'I sinned, and perverted what was right, but I did not get what I deserved.

本会注释　　他……歌唱。希伯来语是yashor，有人认为它是yashir的诗体形式，译为“他将歌唱”。但也有人认为它来自shur（“看”）。描述的是得到复原和宽恕之心灵的喜乐。
　　说。译为“他将说”更好。

伯33:28 上帝救赎我的灵魂免入深坑；我的生命也必见光。 (串)本章22,24赛38:17-18|诗56:13

†[吕]上帝赎救了我的性命免过去到冥坑；我的生命见到亮光。’

†[思]他救了我生命免入阴府，使我重见光明。”

†[当代]祂没有让我堕入死亡的深坑里。我要在光明的领域中活下去。’

†[新译]他救赎我的性命免入深坑，我的生命必得见光明。’

†[Wlb]上帝救赎我魂、免入坑坎、我之生命、复睹光明、

†[Xdv]他使我不至于坠入死亡的深坑；我至今仍然活着。

†[Kjv]He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.

†[Nkjv]He will redeem his soul from going down to the Pit, And his life shall see the light.

†[BBE]He kept my soul from the underworld, and my life sees the light in full measure.

†[GNT] He kept me from going to the world of the dead, and I am still alive."

†[NIV]He redeemed my soul from going down to the pit, and I will live to enjoy the light.'

本会注释　　本节是人赞美诗歌的继续。

伯33:29 上帝两次、三次向人行这一切的事，

†[吕]看哪、这一切事上帝向人行它，两次三次地行；

†[思]这就是天主接二连叁为人所做的事，

†[当代]是的，上帝常会为人做这些事──从深坑中挽回人的灵魂，使他能活在生命的亮光中。

†[新译]　神总是三番四次，向人行这一切事，

†[Wlb]凡此诸事、上帝行之于人者、至再至三矣、

†[Xdv]上帝做这一切，接二连三地为人做这些事，

†[Kjv]Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,

†[Nkjv]"Behold, God works all these things, Twice, in fact, three times with a man,

†[BBE]Truly, God does all these things to man, twice and three times,

†[GNT] God does all this again and again;

†[NIV]God does all these things to a man- twice, even three times-

本会注释　　以利户宣称上帝经常降下苦难，是为了能实施光荣的拯救。他认为约伯的痛苦是一种造就，能给约伯带来好处。

伯33:30 为要从深坑救回人的灵魂，使他被光照耀，与活人一样。

†[吕]好将人的性命从冥坑中救回，使他蒙‘生命之光’的照耀。

†[思]挽救他脱离阴府，重见生命之光。

†[当代]－

†[新译]要把人的性命从深坑里救回来，好使活人之光光照他。

†[Wlb]以援其魂于坑坎、俾得生人之光照、

†[Xdv]为要救人脱离死亡的深坑，使他享受生命的亮光。

†[Kjv]To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.

†[Nkjv]To bring back his soul from the Pit, That he may be enlightened with the light of life.

†[BBE]Keeping back his soul from the underworld, so that he may see the light of life.

†[GNT] each one saves a person's life, and gives him the joy of living.

†[NIV]to turn back his soul from the pit, that the light of life may shine on him.

伯33:31 约伯啊，你当侧耳听我的话，不要作声，等我讲说。

†[吕]约伯阿，你要留心听我；不要作声，我要说话。

†[思]约伯啊！请留神倾听，静静地听我说话！

†[当代]约伯，你要留心听我的话，让我再说下去。

†[新译]约伯啊，你当留心听我，当默不作声，我要说话。

†[Wlb]约伯乎、尔其谛听、静默俟我言之、

†[Xdv]现在，乔布啊，你要听我的话，你要安静，让我说话。

†[Kjv]Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak.

†[Nkjv]"Give ear, Job, listen to me; Hold your peace, and I will speak.

†[BBE]Take note O Job, give ear to me; keep quiet, while I say what is in my mind.

†[GNT] Now, Job, listen to what I am saying; be quiet and let me speak.

†[NIV]Pay attention, Job, and listen to me; be silent, and I will speak.

本会注释　　可能这时约伯想要打破静默，回答以利户。以利户不希望被打断，就阻止约伯说话。然后出于礼貌，并为了继续讲述自己的看法，就在下一节中作了让步。

伯33:32 你若有话说，就可以回答我；你只管说，因我愿以你为是。 (串)本章5|伯34:33;38:4

†[吕]你若有话说，请答覆我；你只管说，因为我愿看你理直。

†[思]你若有话说，请即回覆我，你尽管说，因为我愿听你的理。

†[当代]但如果你现在有话要说，就请你说出来吧。

†[新译]你若有话说，就请回答我；你只管说吧，因为我愿意以你为义。

†[Wlb]如有所言、尔其答我、我欲义尔、

†[Xdv]你如果有话要说，我愿意听；你只管说，我准备承认你理直。

†[Kjv]If thou hast anything to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee.

†[Nkjv]If you have anything to say, answer me; Speak, for I desire to justify you.

†[BBE]If you have anything to say, give me an answer; for it is my desire that you may be judged free from sin.

†[GNT] But if you have something to say, let me hear it; I would gladly admit you are in the right.

†[NIV]If you have anything to say, answer me; speak up, for I want you to be cleared.

本会注释　　以利户似乎真心希望约伯被称为义。

伯33:33 若不然，你就听我说；你不要作声，我便将智慧教训你。 (串)诗25:9;34:11

†[吕]不然，你就听我；不要作声，我便教授你智慧。”

†[思]若没有话，且听我说，静听我要教给你的智慧。

†[当代]我是非常愿意为你辩护的；你只管说，我会把智慧教给你。”

†[新译]你若没有话说，就要听我说，你当默不作声，我就把智慧教导你。”

†[Wlb]否则缄默以听、我则以智训尔、

†[Xdv]如果你不说，就安静听我的话；我要把智慧教授给你。

†[Kjv]If not, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom.

†[Nkjv]If not, listen to me; Hold your peace, and I will teach you wisdom."

†[BBE]If not, give attention to me, and keep quiet, and I will give you wisdom.

†[GNT] But if not, be quiet and listen to me, and I will teach you how to be wise.

†[NIV]But if not, then listen to me; be silent, and I will teach you wisdom."
