但是，惟願上帝說話，願他張開嘴唇攻擊你。

惟愿神说话；愿他开口攻击你，

但是，惟愿上帝说话，愿他张开嘴唇攻击你。

但是，惟愿神说话，愿他张开嘴唇攻击你。

唯愿上帝发言，开口驳斥你，

但愿神说话，愿他开口跟你说话，

惟願神說話；願他開口攻擊你，

但是，惟願神說話，願他張開嘴唇攻擊你。

唯願上帝發言，開口駁斥你，

但願神說話，願他開口跟你說話，

但是哦，惟願上帝發表意見哦！願他開口同你辯駁。

願上帝發言、啟口以攻爾、

我願上帝與爾辯論、

惟願天主有言、向爾啟口、

Oh, how I wish that God would speak, that he would open his lips against you

I wish God would speak. I wish he’d answer you.

But oh, that God would speak and open his lips to you,

If only God would speak; if only he would tell you what he thinks!

But if only God would speak and open his lips against you!

But if only God would speak, And open His lips against you,

But oh, that God would speak, And open His lips against you,

But oh that God would speak, And open his lips against thee,

But if only God would speak and declare His case against you,

But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee;

But if only God would speak, if only he would open his lips against you,

But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against you,

那時，耶和華從旋風中回答約伯說：「誰用無知的言語使我的旨意暗昧不明？

耶和華對約伯說話以後，耶和華就對提幔人以利法說：「我的怒氣向你和你兩個朋友發作，因為你們議論我，不如我的僕人約伯說的正確。

耶和華繼續對約伯說：「強辯的豈可與全能者爭論？與上帝辯駁的可以回答吧！」於是，約伯回答耶和華說：「看哪，我是卑賤的！我用甚麼回答你呢？我只好用手摀住我的口。我說了一次，就不回答；說了兩次，不再說了。」

惟願有一位肯聽我！看哪，我的記號，願全能者回答我！願那與我爭訟的寫下狀詞！

看哪，我在上帝面前與你一樣，也是用泥土造成的。看哪，我不用威嚴恐嚇你，也不用勢力重壓你。「其實，你向我耳朵說話，我聽見你言語的聲音：『我是純潔無過的，我是無辜的，在我裏面沒有罪孽。看哪，上帝找機會攻擊我，以我為他的仇敵，把我的腳鎖上木枷，察看我一切的道路。』「看哪，你這話無理，我要回答你，因上帝比世人更大。你為何與他爭論：『他任何事都不向人解答』？上帝說一次、兩次，人卻不理會。世人在床上沉睡安眠時，在夢中和夜間的異象裏，上帝就開通世人的耳朵，把警告印在他們心上，好叫人轉離自己的行為，叫壯士遠離驕傲，攔阻人不陷入地府，不讓他命喪刀下。

惟願我知道哪裏可以尋見上帝，能到他的臺前，我就在他面前陳明我的案件，滿口辯訴。我必知道他回答我的言語，明白他向我所要說的。他豈用大能與我爭辯呢？不！他必理會我。在那裏正直人可以與他辯論，我就必永遠脫離那審判我的。

你豈可廢棄我的判斷？豈可定我有罪，好顯自己為義嗎？
