5我已經講一pái，taⁿ無beh應；講兩pái，也無koh講。Góa í-keng kóng chi̍t-pái, taⁿ bô beh ìn; Kóng nn̄g-pái, iā bô koh kóng.

6耶和華就tùi大風ê中間應約伯講，Iâ-hô-hoa chiū tùi tōa-hong ê tiong-kan ìn Iok-pek kóng,

7你tio̍h hâ腰親像大丈夫，我問你，你tio̍h應我。Lí tio̍h hâ-io chhin-chhiūⁿ tāi-tiōng-hu, Góa mn̄g lí, lí tio̍h ìn Góa.

11Tio̍h piàⁿ出你滿滿ê受氣；看一切驕傲ê人，hō͘伊降低。Tio̍h piàⁿ-chhut lí móa-móa ê siū-khì; Khòaⁿ it-chhè kiau-ngō͘ ê lâng, hō͘ i kàng-kē.

12看一切驕傲ê人，押chhi̍h hō͘伊低，踏pháiⁿ人tī in所khiā ê地。Khòaⁿ it-chhè kiau-ngō͘ ê lâng, ah-chhi̍h hō͘ i kē, Ta̍h pháiⁿ-lâng tī in só͘ khiā ê tōe.

13Kā in做一下khǹg tī土粉；包密in ê面tī烏暗密ê所在。Kā in chòe chi̍t-ē khǹg tī thô͘-hún; Pau-ba̍t in ê bīn tī o͘-àm ba̍t ê só͘-chāi.

14Án-ni我就承認你；真正你ê chiàⁿ手能救你。Án-ni Góa chiū sêng-jīn lí; Chin-chiàⁿ lí ê chiàⁿ-chhiú ōe kiù lí.

15Taⁿ你看河馬，我造你，也造伊；伊食草親像牛。Taⁿ lí khòaⁿ hô-bé, Góa chō lí, iā chō i; I chia̍h-chháu chhin-chhiūⁿ gû.

17伊搖尾親像柏香樹；伊大腿ê筋相連絡；I iô-bé chhin-chhiūⁿ pek-hiuⁿ-chhiū; I tōa-thúi ê kun saⁿ liân-lo̍k;

18伊ê骨頭親像銅管，伊ê肢體親像鐵條。I ê kut-thâu chhin-chhiūⁿ tâng-kńg, I ê chi-thé chhin-chhiūⁿ thih-tiâu.

19伊是上帝chiah-ê工ê第一；創造伊ê會用刀親近伊。I sī Siōng-tè chiah ê kang ê tē-it; Chhòng-chō i--ê ōe ēng to chhin-kūn i.

20Chiah-ê山實在kā伊出食物，田野ê百獸也thit-thô tī-hia。Chiah ê soaⁿ si̍t-chāi kā i chhut chia̍h-mi̍h, Chhân-iá ê pah-siù iā thit-thô tī-hia.

21伊倒tī連花葉腳，睏tī kui苞蘆竹ê蔭影下，kap水窟內。I tó tī liân-hoe-hio̍h kha, Khùn tī kui-phō lô͘-tek ê ìm-ńg-ē, kap chúi-khut-lāi.

22連花葉ê蔭影遮蓋伊；溪邊ê柳樹圍se̍h伊。Liân-hoe-hio̍h ê ìm-ńg jia-khàm i; Khoe-piⁿ ê liú-chhiū ûi-se̍h i.

23看ah，就若河水氾濫，伊也無驚；約旦河漲到伊ê嘴，伊也安然。Khòaⁿ ah, chiū nā hô-chúi hoàn-lām, i iā bô kiaⁿ; Iok-tàn hô tiòng kàu i ê chhùi, i iā an-jiân.

24Chī-chūi能tī伊目睭金金ê時掠tio̍h伊，á是用活釦kǹg伊ê鼻ah？Chī-chūi ōe tī i ba̍k-chiu kim-kim ê sî lia̍h-tio̍h i, Á-sī ēng oa̍h-khàu kǹg i ê phīⁿ ah?

10無一人hiah好膽敢惹tio̍h伊；án-ni，是誰能khiā tī我ê面前ah？Bô chi̍t-lâng hiah hó-táⁿ káⁿ jiá-tio̍h i; Án-ni, chī-chūi ōe khiā tī Góa ê bīn-chêng ah?

11Chī-chūi事先hō͘我，hō͘我tio̍h報答伊？Thong天下lóng是我ê。Chī-chūi tāi-seng hō͘ Góa, hō͘ Góa tio̍h pò-tap i? Thong thiⁿ-ē lóng sī Góa-ê.

12論到鱷魚ê肢體，kap伊ê大力，以及伊súi ê骨格，我bōe會無講。Lūn-kàu go̍k-hî ê chi-thé, kap i ê tōa-la̍t, Í-ki̍p i súi ê kut-keh, Góa bōe-ōe bô kóng.

13Chī-chūi能剝伊ê外衫？Chī-chūi能入伊頂下ham ê中間？Chī-chūi ōe pak i ê gōa-saⁿ? Chī-chūi ōe ji̍p i téng-ē ham ê tiong-kan?

14Chī-chūi能開伊ê嘴？伊ê嘴齒四圍lóng是thang驚ê。Chī-chūi ōe khui i ê chhùi? I ê chhùi-khí sì-ûi lóng sī thang kiaⁿ ê.

15伊所誇口ê是伊勇ê鱗，合óa就親像封密密，I só͘ khoa-kháu--ê sī i ióng ê lân. Ha̍p-óa chiū chhin-chhiūⁿ hong ba̍t-ba̍t,

16一個一個相連，到氣bōe能透入hit中間。Chi̍t-ê chi̍t-ê saⁿ-liân, Kàu khì bōe-ōe thàu-ji̍p hí(**hit) tiong-kan.

17Lóng相連絡，連做一個，bōe相分開。Lóng saⁿ liân-lo̍k, Liâm chòe chi̍t-ê, bōe saⁿ pun-khui.

18伊phah-ka-chhiùⁿ，就發出光；伊ê目睭親像早起時ê目睭皮。I phah-ka-chhiùⁿ, chiū hoat-chhut kng; I ê ba̍k-chiu chhin-chhiūⁿ chá-khí-sî ê ba̍k-chiu-phê.

19對伊ê嘴發出to̍h ê火把，kap飛出來ê火星。Tùi i ê chhùi hoat-chhut to̍h ê hé-pé, Kap pe--chhut-lâi ê hé-chhiⁿ.

20對伊ê鼻出煙，親像hiâⁿ蘆葦ê鼎teh滾。Tùi i ê phīⁿ chhut-ian, Chhin-chhiūⁿ hiâⁿ lô͘-úi ê tiáⁿ teh kún.

21伊ê氣hō͘火炭to̍h，有火燄對伊ê嘴出。I ê khì hō͘ hé-thòaⁿ to̍h, Ū hé-iām tùi i ê chhùi chhut.

22伊ê頷頸有氣力常常tī-hia，驚惶tī伊ê面前tiô跳。I ê ām-kún ū khùi-la̍t siông-siông tī-hia, Kiaⁿ-hiâⁿ tī i ê bīn-chêng tiô-thiàu.

23伊頷kui ê肉相連絡，kha̍h-tiâu伊ê身軀，bōe會搖動。I ām-kui ê bah saⁿ liân-lo̍k, Kha̍h-tiâu i ê seng-khu, bōe-ōe iô-tāng.

24伊ê心tēng親像石頭，親像下tún ê磨石hiah-tēng。I ê sim tēng chhin-chhiūⁿ chio̍h-thâu, Chhin-chhiūⁿ ē-tún ê bō-chio̍h hiah-tēng.

25伊一下起來，勇士lóng驚惶，驚到失神。I chi̍t-ē khí-lâi, ióng-sū lóng kiaⁿ-hiâⁿ, Kiaⁿ kàu sit-sîn.

26人若用劍，用khau鐮，用鏢，用尖鎗，鑿伊lóng bōe入。Lâng nā ēng kiàm, ēng khau-liâm, ēng pio, ēng chiam-chhiuⁿ, Chha̍k i lóng bōe ji̍p.

27伊看鐵做乾草，看銅做po͘ ê柴。I khòaⁿ thih chòe ta-chháu, Khòaⁿ tâng chòe po͘ ê chhâ.

28弓箭bōe會hō͘伊逃走；用索hìⁿ石，伊準做稻草。Keng-chìⁿ bōe-ōe hō͘ i tô-cháu; Ēng soh hìⁿ chio̍h, i chún-chòe tiū-chháu.

29槌á伊算做稻草；人舞弄鎗，伊就恥笑。Thûi-á i sǹg chòe tiū-chháu; Lâng bú-lāng chhiuⁿ, i chiū thí-chhiò.

30伊ê腹肚下親像利ê厝瓦phè；伊親像鐵耙拖過土。I ê pak-tó͘-ē chhin-chhiūⁿ lāi ê chhù-hiā-phè; I chhin-chhiūⁿ thih-pē thoa-kè thô͘.

31伊hō͘深淵滾親像鼎；hō͘海親像調和油ê缽(poah)。I hō͘ chhim-ian kún chhin-chhiūⁿ tiáⁿ; Hō͘ hái chhin-chhiūⁿ tiau-hô iû ê poah.

32伊hō͘伊後面ê路發光；hō͘人phah算深淵是白頭毛。I hō͘ i āu-bīn ê lō͘ hoat-kng; Hō͘ lâng phah-sǹg chhim-ian sī pe̍h-thâu-mn̂g.

33全地無一個能比得伊；伊受造做無驚惶ê。Choân-tōe bô chi̍t-ê ōe pí-tit i; I siū-chō chòe bô kiaⁿ-hiâⁿ-ê.

34見若高大ê伊看輕伊；伊tī一切驕傲ê族類做王。Kìⁿ-nā koâiⁿ-tōa--ê i khòaⁿ-khin i; I tī it-chhè kiau-ngō͘ ê cho̍k-lūi chòe-ông.

1約伯應耶和華講，Iok-pek ìn Iâ-hô-hoa kóng,

3Chit-ê無知來蓋密所議論ê，是是誰 ah？所以我有講出我所無明ê，就是我所想bōe出ê奇妙，我所m̄知。Chit-ê bû-ti lâi khàm-ba̍t só͘ gī-lūn ê, sī chī-chūi ah? Só͘-í góa ū kóng-chhut góa só͘ bô bêng--ê, Chiū-sī góa só͘ siūⁿ-bōe-chhut ê kî-biāu, góa só͘ m̄-chai.

4求你聽，我beh講，我問你，你應我。Kiû Lí thiaⁿ, góa beh kóng, Góa mn̄g Lí, Lí ìn góa.

5我前耳孔聽見你，taⁿ我ê目睭看見你；Góa chêng hī-khang thiaⁿ-kìⁿ Lí, Taⁿ góa ê ba̍k-chiu khòaⁿ-kìⁿ Lí;

6所以我家己厭惡，tī塵埃kap火灰ê中間反悔。Só͘-í góa ka-kī iàm-ò͘ⁿ, Tī tîn-ai kap hé-hu ê tiong-kan hoán-hóe.

7耶和華對約伯講chiah-ê話以後，耶和華就對Thê-bān人Í-lī-hoat講，我ê受氣對你kap你兩個朋友發起來，因為lín議論我，無講合理ê話，親像我ê奴僕約伯所講ê。Iâ-hô-hoa tùi Iok-pek kóng chiah ê ōe í-āu, Iâ-hô-hoa chiū tùi Thê-bān lâng Í-lī-hoat kóng, Góa ê siū-khì tùi lí kap lí nn̄g ê pêng-iú hoat--khí-lâi, in-ūi lín gī-lūn Góa, bô kóng ha̍p-lí ê ōe, chhin-chhiūⁿ Góa ê lô͘-po̍k Iok-pek só͘ kóng ê.

8Taⁿ lín tio̍h為本身取七隻牛káng，七隻羊káng，到我ê奴僕約伯hia，為本身獻燒祭；我ê奴僕約伯beh替lín祈禱；因為我beh接納伊，免得我照lín ê愚戇來款待lín；因為lín議論我，無講合理ê話，親像我ê奴僕約伯所講ê。Taⁿ lín tio̍h ūi pún-sin chhú chhit chiah gû-káng, chhit chiah iûⁿ-káng, kàu Góa ê lô͘-po̍k Iok-pek hia, ūi pún-sin hiàn sio-chè; Góa ê lô͘-po̍k Iok-pek beh thòe lín kî-tó; in-ūi Góa beh chiap-la̍p i, bián-tit Góa chiàu lín ê gû-gōng lâi khoán-thāi lín; in-ūi lín gī-lūn Góa, bô kóng ha̍p-lí ê ōe, chhin-chhiūⁿ Góa ê lô͘-po̍k Iok-pek só͘ kóng ê.

9Tùi án-ni， Thê-bān人Í-lī-hoat，Su-a人Pí-le̍k-ta̍t，Ná-má人Só-hoat，照耶和華所命令in-ê去行；耶和華也接納約伯。Tùi án-ni Thê-bān lâng Í-lī-hoat, Su-a lâng Pí-le̍k-ta̍t, Ná-má lâng Só-hoat, chiàu Iâ-hô-hoa só͘ bēng-lēng in ê khì-kiâⁿ; Iâ-hô-hoa iā chiap-la̍p Iok-pek.

10約伯替伊ê朋友祈禱ê時，耶和華就hō͘伊ê景況復原；koh耶和華賞賜約伯比以前所有ê加倍。Iok-pek thòe i ê pêng-iú kî-tó ê sî, Iâ-hô-hoa chiū hō͘ i ê kéng-hóng ho̍k-goân; koh Iâ-hô-hoa siúⁿ-sù Iok-pek pí í-chêng só͘-ū-ê ka-pē.

12Án-ni耶和華賜福約伯ê尾景贏過伊ê起頭；伊有羊一萬四千，駱駝六千，牛一千對，驢母一千。Án-ni Iâ-hô-hoa sù-hok Iok-pek ê bé-kéng iâⁿ-kè i ê khí-thâu; i ū iûⁿ chi̍t-bān sì-chheng, lo̍k-tô la̍k chheng, gû chi̍t-chheng tùi, lû-bú chi̍t-chheng.

17Án-ni約伯年歲老，日子滿，就死。Án-ni Iok-pek nî-hè lāu, ji̍t-chí móa, chiū sí.
