18:1

ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Βαλδαδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει

Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said:

掃希人巴勒達回答說：

18:2

μέχρι τίνος οὐ παύσῃ ἐπίσχες ἵνα καὶ αὐτοὶ λαλήσωμεν

How long will you not cease? Hold back, that we too may speak.

你到幾時才住口呢？停一停，好讓我們也說話。

18:3

διὰ τί ὥσπερ τετράποδα σεσιωπήκαμεν ἐναντίον σου

Why have we kept silent before you like four-footed beasts?

我們為何像四足的牲畜一樣，在你面前緘默無言呢？

18:4

κέχρηταί σοι ὀργή τί γάρ ἐὰν σὺ ἀποθάνῃς ἀοίκητος ἡ ὑπ’ οὐρανόν ἢ καταστραφήσεται ὄρη ἐκ θεμελίων

Anger has taken hold of you. What then—if you die, will the world under heaven be uninhabited, or will mountains be overturned from their foundations?

怒氣抓住了你。你若死了，天下就要無人居住嗎？群山就要從根基被傾覆嗎？

18:5

καὶ φῶς ἀσεβῶν σβεσθήσεται καὶ οὐκ ἀποβήσεται αὐτῶν ἡ φλόξ

The light of the ungodly will be quenched, and their flame will not go forth.

不敬虔之人的光必熄滅，他們的火焰也必不發出。

18:6

τὸ φῶς αὐτοῦ σκότος ἐν διαίτῃ ὁ δὲ λύχνος ἐπ’ αὐτῷ σβεσθήσεται

His light in his dwelling is darkness, and the lamp over him will be put out.

他住處的光必變為黑暗，他頭上的燈也必熄滅。

18:7

θηρεύσαισαν ἐλάχιστοι τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ σφάλαι δὲ αὐτοῦ ἡ βουλή

May the least of men hunt down his possessions, and may his own counsel trip him up.

願最卑微的人獵取他的財物，願他自己的計謀使他跌倒。

18:8

ἐμβέβληται δὲ ὁ ποὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν παγίδι ἐν δικτύῳ ἑλιχθείη

His foot has been cast into a snare; may he be entangled in a net.

他的腳已陷在網羅中，願他被纏在網裡。

18:9

ἔλθοισαν δὲ ἐπ’ αὐτὸν παγίδες κατισχύσει ἐπ’ αὐτὸν διψῶντας

May snares come upon him; he will make those who thirst prevail against him.

願網羅臨到他身上；他必使乾渴的人勝過他。
