1Í-lī-hō͘ koh應講，Í-lī-hō͘ koh ìn kóng,

2Lín有智慧ê人，tio̍h聽我ê話，有知識ê人tio̍h àⁿ耳孔聽我。Lín ū tì-hūi ê lâng, tio̍h thiaⁿ góa ê ōe, Ū tì-sek-ê lâng tio̍h àⁿ hī-khang thiaⁿ góa.

3因為耳á試驗話，親像上kiuⁿ分別滋味。In-ūi hī-á chhì-giām ōe, Chhin-chhiūⁿ chiūⁿ-kiuⁿ hun-piat chu-bī.

4咱tio̍h為家己揀hit-ê合宜ê，也tio̍h相kap知甚麼是好。Lán tio̍h ūi ka-kī kéng hit ê ha̍p-gî--ê, Iā tio̍h saⁿ-kap chai sím-mi̍h sī hó.

5因為約伯有講，我是公義，上帝奪我ê正理；In-ūi Iok-pek ū kóng, Góa sī kong-gī, Siōng-tè toa̍t góa ê chèng-lí;

6我雖然有你，iáu算做講白賊ê；我雖然無過失，所受ê傷bōe醫得。Góa sui-jiân ū lí, iáu sǹg chòe kóng pe̍h-chha̍t--ê; Góa sui-jiân bô kè-sit, só͘ siū ê siong bōe-i--tit.

7Chī-chūi親像約伯滿嘴侮慢，親像lim水ah？Chī-chūi chhin-chhiūⁿ Iok-pek móa-chhùi bú-bān, Chhin-chhiūⁿ lim chúi ah?

8伊kap作孽ê做伴來往，kap pháiⁿ人相kap行。I kap chok-gia̍t--ê chòe-phōaⁿ lâi-óng, Kap pháiⁿ-lâng saⁿ-kap kiâⁿ.

9因為伊bat講，人歡喜上帝，lóng是無利益。In-ūi i bat kóng, Lâng hoaⁿ-hí Siōng-tè, Lóng sī bô lī-ek.

10所以lín明理ê人，tio̍h聽我ê話。上帝斷斷bōe行pháiⁿ，全能ê斷斷bōe行不義。Só͘-í lín bêng-lí ê lâng, tio̍h thiaⁿ góa ê ōe. Siōng-tè toàn-toàn bōe kiâⁿ pháiⁿ, Choân-lêng--ê toàn-toàn bōe kiâⁿ put-gī.

11因為伊beh照人所做ê來報應伊，照人所行ê來hō͘伊tú-tio̍h。In-ūi I beh chiàu lâng só͘-chòe-ê lâi pò-èng i, Chiàu lâng só͘-kiâⁿ--ê lâi hō͘ i tú-tio̍h.

12上帝實在bōe做pháiⁿ；全能ê也無偏私來審判。Siōng-tè si̍t-chāi bōe chòe pháiⁿ; Choân-lêng--ê iā bô phian-su lâi sím-phòaⁿ.

13Chī-chūi用地託重伊ah？Chī-chūi安定全世界ah？Chī-chūi ēng tōe thok-tiōng I ah? Chī-chūi an-tiāⁿ choân sè-kài ah?

14伊若專心顧家己，將伊ê神kap氣收回歸家己，I nā choan-sim kò͘ ka-kī, Chiong I ê sîn kap khì siu-hôe kui ka-kī,

15見若有肉體ê beh做一下死，人猶原beh歸土。Kìⁿ-nā ū jio̍k-thé--ê beh chòe chi̍t-ē sí, Lâng iû-goân beh kui thó͘.

16你若明理，就tio̍h聽chit-ê，àⁿ耳孔聽我講話ê聲。Lí nā bêng-lí, chiū tio̍h thiaⁿ chit-ê, Àⁿ hī-khang thiaⁿ góa kóng-ōe ê siaⁿ.

17怨恨公平ê kiám會掌權mah？Hit-ê有公義ê，有權能ê，你kiám會定伊有罪mah？Oàn-hūn kong-pêng--ê kiám ōe chiáng-koân mah? Hit-ê ū kong-gī--ê, ū koân-lêng--ê, lí kiám ōe tēng I ū-chōe mah?

18伊對君王講，你是無hē落-ê；對貴族講，你是邪惡-ê。I tùi kun-ông kóng, Lí sī bô hē-lo̍h--ê; Tùi kùi-cho̍k kóng, Lí sī siâ-ok--ê.

19伊無偏私款待有爵位ê，也無欺貧重富，因為lóng是伊ê手所造ê。I bô phian-su khoán-thāi ū chiok-ūi-ê, Iā bô khi-pîn tiōng-hù, In-ūi lóng sī I ê chhiú só͘ chō ê.

20Tiap-á久ê中間，半暝ê時，in就死無；百姓受搖choah，teh過去；勇猛ê受除滅m̄免用手。Tiap-á-kú ê tiong-kan, pòaⁿ-mî ê sî, in chiū sí-bô; Peh-sìⁿ siū iô-choah, teh kè--khì; Ióng-béng--ê siū tû-bia̍t m̄-bián ēng chhiú.

21因為伊ê目睭鑑察ta̍k人ê路，看明伊ê腳步。In-ūi I ê ba̍k-chiu kàm-chhat ta̍k lâng ê lō͘, Khòaⁿ-bêng i ê kha-pō͘.

22無有烏暗，無有死蔭，thang hō͘行pháiⁿ ê人去bih。Bô ū o͘-àm, bô ū sí-ìm, Thang hō͘ kiâⁿ-pháiⁿ ê lâng khì bih.

23因為伊無kā人定tio̍h時期，hō͘人thang到伊ê面前受審判。In-ūi I bô kā lâng tiāⁿ-tio̍h sî-kî, Hō͘ lâng thang kàu I ê bīn-chêng siū sím-phòaⁿ.

24伊phah碎強猛ê人，m̄免查問，設立別人來替in。I phah-chhùi kiông-béng ê lâng, m̄-bián chhâ-mn̄g, Siat-li̍p pa̍t-lâng lâi thòe in.

25因為伊鑑察in ê所做；tī暝時chhia倒in，in就滅無。In-ūi I kàm-chhat in ê só͘-chòe; Tī mî--sî chhia-tó in, in chiū bia̍t-bô.

26Tī眾人teh看ê所在，伊phah in，親像phah做pháiⁿ ê人一樣。Tī chèng-lâng teh khòaⁿ ê só͘-chāi I phah in, Chhin-chhiūⁿ phah chòe-pháiⁿ ê lâng chi̍t-iūⁿ.

27因為in行偏斜(chhoa̍h)無tè伊，也lóng無致意伊ê路。In-ūi in kiâⁿ phian-chhoa̍h bô tè I, Iā lóng bô tì-ì I ê lō͘.

28致到hō͘ sòng-hiong人喉叫ê聲透到伊面前，伊也聽見困苦ê人ê喉叫。Tì-kàu hō͘ sòng-hiong lâng âu-kiò ê siaⁿ thàu-kàu I bīn-chêng, I iā thiaⁿ-kìⁿ khùn-khó͘ ê lâng ê âu-kiò.

29伊hō͘人安靜，是誰會嫌伊m̄-tio̍h ah？伊掩面，是誰看伊能tio̍h ah？伊款待一國á是一人lóng是án-ni；I hō͘ lâng an-chēng, chī-chūi ōe hiâm I m̄-tio̍h ah? I ng-bīn, chī-chūi khòaⁿ I ōe tio̍h ah? I khoán-thāi chi̍t-kok á-sī chi̍t-lâng lóng sī án-ni;

30免得無敬虔ê人做王，免得有人籠絡百姓。Bián-tit bô kèng-khiân ê lâng chòe ông, Bián-tit ū lâng lóng-lo̍k peh-sìⁿ.

31Kiám有人bat對上帝講，我已經受責罰，無koh犯罪ah？Kiám ū lâng bat tùi Siōng-tè kóng, Góa í-keng siū chek-hoa̍t, bô koh hoān-chōe ah?

32我所無看見ê，求你指示我，我若bat做pháiⁿ，我無beh koh做伊。Góa só͘ bô khòaⁿ-kìⁿ--ê, kiû Lí chí-sī góa, Góa nā bat chòe pháiⁿ, góa bô beh koh chòe i.

33Kiám是伊所報應，無照你ê意思，你chiah推辭m̄受mah？Taⁿ tio̍h揀ê，是你，m̄是我；你所知ê做你講。Kiám sī I só͘ pò-èng, bô chiàu lí ê ì-sù, lí chiah the-sî m̄-siū mah? Taⁿ tio̍h kéng--ê, sī lí, m̄-sī góa; lí só͘ chai-ê chòe lí kóng.

34明理ê人，kap聽我ê話ê智慧人，beh對我講；Bêng-lí ê lâng, kap thiaⁿ góa ê ōe ê tì-hūi lâng, Beh tùi góa kóng;

35約伯所講ê無知識，伊ê話無智慧。Iok-pek só͘ kóng-ê bô tì-sek, I ê ōe bô tì-hūi.

36願約伯受試驗到透底，因為伊ê應答親像pháiⁿ人。Goān Iok-pek siū chhì-giām kàu thàu-tóe, In-ūi i ê ìn-tap chhin-chhiūⁿ pháiⁿ lâng.

37因為伊tī伊ê罪koh加添悖逆；伊tī咱中間phah手；koh用chōe-chōe話反對上帝。In-ūi i tī i ê chōe koh ke-thiⁿ pōe-ge̍k; I tī lán tiong-kan phah-chhiú; Koh ēng chōe-chōe ōe hoán-tùi Siōng-tè.

1Í-lī-hō͘ koh應講，Í-lī-hō͘ koh ìn kóng,

2你掠chit-ê做有合理，你講，我ê義贏過上帝ê義ah，Lí lia̍h chit-ê chòe ū ha̍p-lí, Lí kóng, Góa ê gī iâⁿ-kè Siōng-tè ê gī ah,

3你竟然講，這有甚麼利益你？又koh，我有甚麼利益khah贏我bat去犯罪？Lí kéng-jiân kóng, Che ū sím-mi̍h lī-ek lí? Iū-koh, Góa ū sím-mi̍h lī-ek khah-iâⁿ góa bat khì hoān-chōe?

4我beh應你，以及óa你ê同伴。Góa beh ìn lí, Í-ki̍p óa-lí ê tâng-phōaⁿ.

5你tio̍h kia̍h目看天，看hit-ê穹蒼，是比你khah高。Lí tio̍h kia̍h-ba̍k khòaⁿ thiⁿ, Khòaⁿ hit ê kiong-chhong, sī pí lí khah-koâiⁿ.

6你若犯罪，會害tio̍h伊甚麼？你ê過失若加添，會礙tio̍h伊甚麼ah？Lí nā hoān-chōe, ōe hāi-tio̍h I sím-mi̍h? Lí ê kè-sit nā ke-thiⁿ, ōe gāi-tio̍h I sím-mi̍h ah?

7你若行義，有甚麼hō͘伊ah？á是伊對你ê手有得tio̍h甚麼ah？Lí nā kiâⁿ-gī, ū sím-mi̍h hō͘ I ah? Á-sī I tùi lí ê chhiú ū tit-tio̍h sím-mi̍h ah?

8你ê pháiⁿ關係你同類ê人，你ê義也關係世間人。Lí ê pháiⁿ koan-hē lí tâng-lūi ê lâng, Lí ê gī iā koan-hē sè-kan lâng.

9人因為受chōe-chōe暴虐就喉叫，因為受強ê人ê壓制，就哮救。Lâng in-ūi siū chōe-chōe pō-gio̍k chiū âu-kiò, In-ūi siū kiông ê lâng ê ap-chè, chiū háu-kiù.

10總是無人講，創造我ê上帝tī toh落？伊是hō͘人暝時唱歌ê。Chóng-sī bô lâng kóng, Chhòng-chō góa ê Siōng-tè tī toh-lo̍h? I sī hō͘ lâng mî--sî chhiùⁿ-koa--ê.

11伊是教示咱贏過地上ê走獸，hō͘咱有智慧，贏過tī空中ê飛鳥ê。I sī kà-sī lán iâⁿ-kè tōe-chiūⁿ ê cháu-siù, Hō͘ lán ū tì-hūi, iâⁿ-kè tī khong-tiong ê pe-chiáu ê.

12In tī-hia喉叫，總是無有應答ê，因為pháiⁿ人驕傲ê緣故。In tī-hia âu-kiò, chóng-sī bô ū ìn-tap ê, In-ūi pháiⁿ-lâng kiau-ngō͘ ê iân-kò͘.

13虛假ê，上帝無beh聽，全能ê也m̄看顧伊。Hu-kè-ê, Siōng-tè bô beh thiaⁿ, Choân-lêng--ê iā m̄ khòaⁿ-kò͘ i.

14何況你講，你無看見伊；chit-ê案件tī伊ê面前，你tio̍h請thèng候伊 ah！Hô-hòng lí kóng, lí bô khòaⁿ-kìⁿ I; Chit ê àn-kiāⁿ tī I ê bīn-chêng, lí tio̍h chhiáⁿ thèng-hāu I ah!

15總是taⁿ因為伊無受氣來責罰，也無不止注意侮慢；Chóng-sī taⁿ in-ūi I bô siū-khì lâi chek-hoa̍t, Iā bô put-chí chù-ì bú-bān;

16所以約伯開嘴lóng虛假，講chōe-chōe無知ê話。Só͘-í Iok-pek khui-chhùi lóng hu-ké, Kóng chōe-chōe bû-ti ê ōe.

1Í-lī-hō͘ koh續接講，Í-lī-hō͘ koh sòa-chiap kóng,

2你koh容允我tiap-á久，我就beh指示你，因為iáu有話beh為tio̍h上帝來講。Lí koh iông-ún góa tiap-á-kú, góa chiū beh chí-sī lí, In-ūi iáu ū ōe beh ūi-tio̍h Siōng-tè lâi kóng.

3我beh tùi遠遠取我ê知識，用義歸hō͘創造我ê。Góa beh tùi hn̄g-hn̄g chhú góa ê tì-sek, Ēng gī kui hō͘ chhòng-chō góa--ê.

4因為我ê話實在無白賊，有知識齊備ê kap你tī-teh。In-ūi góa ê ōe si̍t-chāi bô pe̍h-chha̍t, Ū tì-sek chiâu-pī--ê kap lí tī-teh.

5看ah，上帝大權能lóng無藐視人；伊ê心思能力真大。Khòaⁿ ah, Siōng-tè tōa koân-lêng lóng bô biáu-sī lâng; I ê sim-su lêng-le̍k chin-tōa.

6伊無保護pháiⁿ人ê性命，是hō͘苦難ê得tio̍h公平。I bô pó-hō͘ pháiⁿ-lâng ê sìⁿ-miā, Sī hō͘ khó͘-lān--ê tit-tio̍h kong-pêng.

7伊ê目睭無離開義人；hō͘ in kap君王相kap坐位到永遠；in就得tio̍h升高。I ê ba̍k-chiu bô lī-khui gī-lâng; Hō͘ in kap kun-ông saⁿ-kap chē-ūi kàu éng-oán; In chiū tit-tio̍h seng-koâiⁿ.

8In若hō͘鎖鏈縛teh，hō͘苦難ê索liù-tio̍h；In nā hō͘ só-liān pa̍k-teh, Hō͘ khó͘-lān ê soh liù-tio̍h;

9伊就指示in知in ê所做，以及in所犯ê重罪。I chiū chí-sī in chai in ê só͘-chòe, Í-ki̍p in só͘ hoān ê tāng-chōe.

10伊也開in ê耳孔來受教示，吩咐in oa̍t-tńg來，離開罪惡。I iā khui in ê hī-khang lâi siū kà-sī, Hoan-hù in oa̍t-tńg-lâi, lī-khui chōe-ok.

11In若聽thàn來服事，就beh興通過日，歷年安樂。In nā thiaⁿ-thàn lâi ho̍k-sāi, Chiū beh heng-thong kè-ji̍t, Le̍k-nî an-lo̍k.

12若m̄聽thàn，就beh hō͘刀劍thâi，戇戇來死。Nā m̄ thiaⁿ-thàn, chiū beh hō͘ to-kiàm thâi, Gōng-gōng lâi sí.

13Hiah-ê心無敬虔ê人積聚受氣，伊綑縛in ê時，in也無哮救。Hiah-ê sim bô kèng-khiân ê lâng chek-chū siū-khì, I khún-pa̍k in ê sî, in iā bô háu-kiù.

14伊beh tī少年ê時死，in ê性命喪失親像pháiⁿ gín-ná一樣。I beh tī siàu-liân ê sî sí, In ê sìⁿ-miā sòng-sit chhin-chhiūⁿ pháiⁿ gín-ná chi̍t-iūⁿ.

15伊用困苦來救困苦ê人，用暴虐來開in ê耳孔。I ēng khùn-khó͘ lâi kiù khùn-khó͘ ê lâng, Ēng pō-gio̍k lâi khui in ê hī-khang.

16伊引chhōa你出危急，入tī寬闊無狹toe̍h ê地；排tī你ê桌頂ê是有油膩(jī)滿滿ê。I ín-chhōa lí chhut gûi-kip, Ji̍p tī khoan-khoah bô oe̍h-toe̍h ê tōe; Pâi tī lí ê toh-téng--ê sī ū iû-jī móa-móa ê.

17你充滿pháiⁿ人ê擬議，就擬議kap判斷beh掠你。Lí chhiong-móa pháiⁿ-lâng ê gí-gī, Chiū gí-gī kap phòaⁿ-toàn beh lia̍h lí.

18M̄-thang容允受氣激動你，致到你侮慢；也m̄-thang因為贖回ê價錢大，來行偏。M̄-thang iông-ún siū-khì kek-tōng lí, tì-kàu lí bú-bān; Iā m̄-thang in-ūi sio̍k-hôe ê kè-chîⁿ tōa, lâi kiâⁿ phian.

19你ê錢財，á是你一切ê勢力，kiám有效驗，hō͘你無tú-tio̍h患難mah？Lí ê chîⁿ-châi, á-sī lí it-chhè ê sè-le̍k, Kiám ū hāu-giām, hō͘ lí bô tú-tio̍h hoān-lān mah?

20莫得欣慕hit-ê暗暝，就是百姓tī in ê所在tú-tio̍h除滅ê時。Bo̍h-tit him-bō͘ hit ê àm-mî, Chiū-sī peh-sìⁿ tī in ê só͘-chāi tú-tio̍h tû-bia̍t ê sî.

21你tio̍h謹慎，m̄-thang意向罪惡；因為你揀chit-ê，贏過苦難。Lí tio̍h kín-sīn, m̄-thang ì-hiòng chōe-ok; In-ūi lí kéng chit-ê, iâⁿ-kè khó͘-lān.

22看ah，上帝用伊ê能力來行大事；是誰做教師親像伊ah？Khòaⁿ ah, Siōng-tè ēng I ê lêng-le̍k lâi kiâⁿ tōa-sū; Chī-chūi chòe kàu-su chhin-chhiūⁿ I ah?

23Chī-chūi能定tio̍h伊ê路？Chī-chūi會講，你有行不義？Chī-chūi ōe tiāⁿ-tio̍h I ê lō͘? Chī-chūi ōe kóng, Lí ū kiâⁿ put-gī?

24你tio̍h記得o-ló伊所行ê做大，就是人所唱歌ê。Lí tio̍h kì-tit o-ló I só͘ kiâⁿ--ê chòe-tōa, Chiū-sī lâng só͘ chhiùⁿ-koa ê.

25人lóng看見伊；人tùi遠遠看見伊。Lâng lóng khòaⁿ-kìⁿ i; Lâng tùi hn̄g-hn̄g khòaⁿ-kìⁿ i.

26看ah，上帝至大，咱m̄-bat伊；伊ê年ê額bōe算得。Khòaⁿ ah, Siōng-tè chì-tōa, lán m̄-bat I; I ê nî ê gia̍h bōe-sǹg-tit.

27因為伊吸引一滴一滴ê水，就對伊ê濕氣變成雨；In-ūi I khip-ín chi̍t-tih chi̍t-tih ê chúi, Chiū tùi i ê sip-khì piàn-chiâⁿ hō͘;

28就是天所落ê，來ak眾人。Chiū-sī thiⁿ só͘ lo̍h ê, Lâi ak chèng-lâng.

29Chī-chūi能明白雲怎樣thí開，kap伊行宮khū-khū哮ê聲？Chī-chūi ōe bêng-pe̍k hûn cháiⁿ-iūⁿ thí-khui, Kap I hêng-kiong khū-khū-háu ê siaⁿ?

30看ah，伊發出伊ê光tī hit頂面；伊koh遮蓋海ê底。Khòaⁿ ah, I hoat-chhut I ê kng tī hit téng-bīn; I koh jia-khàm hái ê tóe.

31因為伊用chiah-ê審判百姓；koh賞賜豐盛ê米糧。In-ūi I ēng chiah-ê sím-phòaⁿ peh-sìⁿ; Koh siúⁿ-sù hong-sēng ê bí-niû.

32伊用電光遮手，命令伊phah-tio̍h對敵。I ēng tiān-kng jia-chhiú, Bēng-lēng i phah-tio̍h tùi-te̍k.

33伊ê聲是表明伊；也用所beh起ê大風雨指示cheng-siⁿ。I ê siaⁿ sī piáu-bêng I; Iā ēng só͘ beh khí ê tōa hong-hō͘ chí-sī cheng-siⁿ.
