1：14有报信的来见约伯，说，牛正耕地，驴在旁边吃草。
And there came a messenger unto Job； and said； The oxen were plowing； and the asses feeding beside them：
1：15示巴人忽然闯来，把牲畜掳去，并用刀杀了仆人。惟有我一人逃脱，来报信给你。
And the Sabeans fell upon them； and took them away； yea； they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword； and I only am escaped alone to tell thee。
1：16他还说话的时候，又有人来说，神从天上降下火来，将群羊和仆人都烧灭了。惟有我一人逃脱，来报信给你。
While he was yet speaking； there came also another； and said； The fire of God is fallen from heaven； and hath burned up the sheep； and the servants； and consumed them； and I only am escaped alone to tell thee。
1：17他还说话的时候，又有人来说，迦勒底人分作三队忽然闯来，把骆驼掳去，并用刀杀了仆人。惟有我一人逃脱，来报信给你。
While he was yet speaking； there came also another； and said； The Chaldeans made out three bands； and fell upon the camels； and have carried them away； yea； and slain the servants with the edge of the sword； and I only am escaped alone to tell thee。
1：18他还说话的时候，又有人来说，你的儿女正在他们长兄的家里吃饭喝酒。
While he was yet speaking； there came also another； and said； Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house：
1：19不料，有狂风从旷野刮来，击打房屋的四角，房屋倒塌在少年人身上，他们就都死了。惟有我一人逃脱，来报信给你。
And； behold； there came a great wind from the wilderness； and smote the four corners of the house； and it fell upon the young men； and they are dead； and I only am escaped alone to tell thee。
1：20约伯便起来，撕裂外袍，剃了头，伏在地上下拜。
Then Job arose； and rent his mantle； and shaved his head； and fell down upon the ground； and worshipped；
1：21说，我赤身出于母胎，也必赤身归回。赏赐的是耶和华，收取的也是耶和华。耶和华的名是应当称颂的。
And said； Naked came I out of my mother's womb； and naked shall I return thither： the LORD gave； and the LORD hath taken away； blessed be the name of the LORD。
1：22在这一切的事上约伯并不犯罪，也不以神为愚妄（或作也不妄评神）。
In all this Job sinned not； nor charged God foolishly。

2：1又有一天，神的众子来侍立在耶和华面前，撒但也来在其中。
Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD； and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD。
2：2耶和华问撒但说，你从那里来。撒但回答说，我从地上走来走去，往返而来。
And the LORD said unto Satan； From whence est thou？ And Satan answered the LORD； and said； From going to and fro in the earth； and from walking up and down in it。
2：3耶和华问撒但说，你曾用心察看我的仆人约伯没有。地上再没有人像他完全正直，敬畏神，远离恶事。你虽激动我攻击他，无故地毁灭他，他仍然持守他的纯正。
And the LORD said unto Satan； Hast thou considered my servant Job； that there is none like him in the earth； a perfect and an upright man； one that feareth God； and escheweth evil？ and still he holdeth fast his integrity； although thou movedst me against him； to destroy him without cause。
2：4撒但回答耶和华说，人以皮代皮，情愿舍去一切所有的，保全性命。
And Satan answered the LORD； and said； Skin for skin； yea； all that a man hath will he give for his life。
2：5你且伸手伤他的骨头和他的肉，他必当面弃掉你。
But put forth thine hand now； and touch his bone and his flesh； and he will curse thee to thy face。
2：6耶和华对撒但说，他在你手中，只要存留他的性命。
And the LORD said unto Satan； Behold； he is in thine hand； but save his life。
2：7于是撒但从耶和华面前退去，击打约伯，使他从脚掌到头顶长毒疮。
So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD； and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown。
2：8约伯就坐在炉灰中，拿瓦片刮身体。
And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself withal； and he sat down among the ashes。
2：9他的妻子对他说，你仍然持守你的纯正吗。你弃掉神，死了吧。
Then said his wife unto him； Dost thou still retain thine integrity？ curse God； and die。
2：10约伯却对她说，你说话像愚顽的妇人一样。嗳，难道我们从神手里得福，不也受祸吗。在这一切的事上约伯并不以口犯罪。
But he said unto her； Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh。 What？ shall we receive good at the hand of God； and shall we not receive evil？ In all this did not Job sin with his lips。
2：11约伯的三个朋友毯螅人以利法，书亚人比勒达，拿玛人琐法，听说有这一切的灾祸临到他身上，各人就从本处约会同来，为他悲伤，安慰他。
Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was e upon him； they came every one from his own place； Eliphaz the Temanite； and Bildad the Shuhite； and Zophar the Naamathite： for they had made an appointment together to e to mourn with him and to fort him。
2：12他们远远地举目观看，认不出他来，就放声大哭。各人撕裂外袍，把尘土向天扬起来，落在自己的头上。
And when they lifted up their eyes afar off； and knew him not； they lifted up their voice； and wept； and they rent every one his mantle； and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven。
2：13他们就同他七天七夜坐在地上，一个人也不向他说句话，因为他极其痛苦。
So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights； and none spake a word unto him： for they saw that his grief was very great。

3：1此后，约伯开口咒诅自己的生日，说，
After this opened Job his mouth； and cursed his day。
3：2愿我生的那日，
And Job spake； and said；
3：3*和说怀了男胎的那夜都灭没。
Let the day perish wherein I was born； and the night in which it was said； There is a man child conceived。
3：4愿那日变为黑暗。愿神不从上面寻梢它。愿亮光不照于其上。
Let that day be darkness； let not God regard it from above； neither let the light shine upon it。
3：5愿黑暗和死荫索取那日。愿密云停在其上。愿日蚀恐吓它。
Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it； let a cloud dwell upon it； let the blackness of the day terrify it。
3：6愿那夜被幽暗夺取，不在年中的日子同乐，也不入月中的数目。
As for that night； let darkness seize upon it； let it not be joined unto the days of the year； let it not e into the number of the months。
3：7愿那夜没有生育，其间也没有欢乐的声音。
Lo； let that night be solitary； let no joyful voice e therein。
3：8愿那咒诅日子且能惹动鳄鱼的，咒诅那夜。
Let them curse it that curse the day； who are ready to raise up their mourning。
3：9愿那夜黎明的星宿变为黑暗，盼亮却不亮，也不见早晨的光线（光线原文作眼皮）。
Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark； let it look for light； but have none； neither let it see the dawning of the day：
3：10因没有把怀我胎的门关闭，也没有将患难对我的眼隐藏。
Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb； nor hid sorrow from mine eyes。
3：11我为何不出母胎而死。为何不出母腹绝气。
Why died I not from the womb？ why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly？
3：12为何有膝接收我。为何有奶哺养我。
Why did the knees prevent me？ or why the breasts that I should suck？
3：13不然，我就早已躺卧安睡。
For now should I have lain still and been quiet； I should have slept： then had I been at rest；
3：14和地上为自己重造荒邱的君王，谋士。
With kings and counsellors of the earth； which built desolate places for themselves；
3：15或与有金子，将银子装满了房屋的王子一同安息。
Or with princes that had gold； who filled their houses with silver：
3：16或像隐而未现，不到期而落的胎，归于无有，如同未见光的婴孩。
Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been； as infants which never saw light。
3：17在那里恶人止息搅扰，困乏人得享安息。
There the wicked cease from troubling； and there the weary be at rest。
3：18被囚的人同得安逸，不听见督工的声音。
There the prisoners rest together； they hear not the voice of the oppressor。
3：19大小都在那里。奴仆脱离主人的辖制。
The small and great are there； and the servant is free from his master。
3：20受患难的人，为何有光赐给他呢。心中愁苦的人，为何有生命赐给他呢。
Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery； and life unto the bitter in soul；
3：21他们切望死，却不得死。求死，胜于求隐藏的珍宝。
Which long for death； but it eth not； and dig for it more than for hid treasures；
3：22他们寻见坟墓就快乐，极其欢喜。
Which rejoice exceedingly； and are glad； when they can find the grave？
3：23人的道路既然遮隐，神又把他四面围困，为何有光赐给他呢。
Why is light given to a man whose way is hid； and whom God hath hedged in？
3：24我未曾吃饭就发出叹息。我唉哼的声音涌出如水。
For my sighing eth before I eat； and my roarings are poured out like the waters。
3：25因我所恐惧的临到我身，我所惧怕的迎我而来。
For the thing which I greatly feared is e upon me； and that which I was afraid of is e unto me。
3：26我不得安逸，不得平静，也不得安息，却有患难来到。
I was not in safety； neither had I rest； neither was I quiet； yet trouble came。

4：1毯螅人以利法回答说，
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said；
4：2人若想与你说话，你就厌烦吗。但谁能忍住不说呢。
If we assay to mune with thee； wilt thou be grieved？ but who can withhold himself from speaking？
4：3你素来教导许多的人，又坚固软弱的手。
Behold； thou hast instructed many； and thou hast strengthened the weak hands。
4：4你的言语曾扶助那将要跌倒的人。你又使软弱的膝稳固。
Thy words have upholden him that was falling； and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees。
