¹述說　神的威榮和作為“我的心因此戰兢，跳離原處。

¹“Yes, at this my heart trembles, and is moved out of its place.

²你們當細聽他轟轟的聲音，他口中發出隆隆的雷聲。

²Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, the sound that goes out of his mouth.

³他發雷聲響遍天下，也發電光閃到地極。

³He sends it forth under the whole sky, and his lightning to the ends of the earth.

⁴接著雷聲霹靂，　神以自己威嚴之聲打雷，人聽到雷聲的時候，　神並沒有留住風霜雨雲。

⁴After it a voice roars. He thunders with the voice of his majesty. He doesn’t hold back anything when his voice is heard.

⁵　神以奇妙的方法打雷，他行大事，我們不能了解。

⁵God thunders marvelously with his voice. He does great things, which we can’t comprehend.

⁶他對雪說：‘降在地上’，對大雨暴雨也是這樣。

⁶For he says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth;’ likewise to the shower of rain, and to the showers of his mighty rain.

⁷他封住各人的手，叫萬人知道他的作為。

⁷He seals up the hand of every man, that all men whom he has made may know it.

⁸Then the animals take cover, and remain in their dens.

⁹風暴來自南宮，寒冷出於北方。

⁹Out of its room comes the storm, and cold out of the north.

¹⁰　神所呼的氣息結成冰，廣闊無邊的水也凝結；

¹⁰By the breath of God, ice is given, and the breadth of the waters is frozen.

¹¹他使密雲滿載水氣，雲彩布散他的電光。

¹¹Yes, he loads the thick cloud with moisture. He spreads abroad the cloud of his lightning.

¹²電光照著　神的指引來往旋轉，在地球上行他一切所吩咐的。

¹²It is turned around by his guidance, that they may do whatever he commands them on the surface of the habitable world,

¹³他使電光來臨，是為施行責罰，或為滋潤大地，或為賜予慈愛。

¹³Whether it is for correction, or for his land, or for loving kindness, that he causes it to come.

¹⁴約伯啊！你當留心聽這話，要站立思想　神奇妙的事。

¹⁴“Listen to this, Job. Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.

¹⁵　神怎樣吩咐這些，又怎樣使雲中的電光照耀，你知道嗎？

¹⁵Do you know how God controls them, and causes the lightning of his cloud to shine?

¹⁶密雲怎樣浮於空中，那知識全備者奇妙的作為，你知道嗎？

¹⁶Do you know the workings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?

¹⁷地因南風而寂靜的時候，你的衣服怎樣熱起來，你知道嗎？

¹⁷You whose clothing is warm, when the earth is still by reason of the south wind?

¹⁸你能與　神同鋪雲天嗎？這雲天堅硬如鑄成的鏡子。

¹⁸Can you, with him, spread out the sky, which is strong as a cast metal mirror?

¹⁹我們因愚昧無知的緣故，不能陳明我們的案件，請你告訴我們應該對他說甚麼話。

¹⁹Teach us what we shall tell him, for we can’t make our case by reason of darkness.

²⁰人怎能對他說：‘我要說話’？哪有人自願滅亡呢？

²⁰Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?

²¹人不能看見雲後的強光，唯有經風一吹，天才晴朗。

²¹Now men don’t see the light which is bright in the skies, but the wind passes, and clears them.

²²金光來自北方，在　神的周圍有可怕的威嚴。

²²Out of the north comes golden splendor. With God is awesome majesty.

²³論到全能者，我們無法把他查出；他大有能力與公平，又滿有公義，他必不苦待人。

²³We can’t reach the Almighty. He is exalted in power. In justice and great righteousness, he will not oppress.

²⁴因此人人都應該敬畏他；心中自以為有智慧的，他都不看顧。”

²⁴Therefore men revere him. He doesn’t regard any who are wise of heart.”
