■ 욥기 27장
1. 욥이 또 비사를 들어 가로되
Moreover Job continued his parable , and said ,
2. 나의 의를 빼앗으신 하나님 나의 영혼을 괴롭게 하신 전능자의 사심을 가리켜 맹세하노니
As God liveth , who hath taken away my judgment ; and the Almighty , who hath vexed my soul ;
3. (나의 생명이 아직 내 속에 완전히 있고 하나님의 기운이 오히려 내 코에 있느니라)
All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils ;
4. 결코 내 입술이 불의를 말하지 아니하며 내 혀가 궤휼을 발하지 아니하리라
My lips shall not speak wickedness , nor my tongue utter deceit .
5. 나는 단정코 너희를 옳다 하지 아니하겠고 죽기 전에는 나의 순전함을 버리지 않을 것이라
God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.
6. 내가 내 의를 굳게 잡고 놓지 아니하리니 일평생 내 마음이 나를 책망치 아니하리라
My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go : my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live .
7. 나의 대적은 악인 같이 되고 일어나 나를 치는 자는 불의한 자 같이 되기를 원하노라
Let mine enemy be as the wicked , and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous .
8. 사곡한 자가 이익을 얻었으나 하나님이 그 영혼을 취하실 때에는 무슨 소망이 있으랴
For what is the hope of the hypocrite , though he hath gained , when God taketh away his soul ?
9. 환난이 그에게 임할 때에 하나님이 어찌 그 부르짖음을 들으시랴
Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?
10. 그가 어찌 전능자를 기뻐하겠느냐 항상 하나님께 불러 아뢰겠느냐
Will he delight himself in the Almighty ? will he always call upon God ?
11. 하나님의 하시는 일을 내가 너희에게 가르칠 것이요 전능자의 뜻을 내가 숨기지 아니하리라
I will teach you by the hand of God : that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal .
12. 너희가 다 이것을 보았거늘 어찌하여 아주 허탄한 사람이 되었는고
Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain ?
13. 악인이 하나님께 얻을 분깃, 강포자가 전능자에게 받을 산업은 이것이라
This is the portion of a wicked man with God , and the heritage of oppressors , which they shall receive of the Almighty .
14. 그 자손이 번성하여도 칼을 위함이요 그 후예는 식물에 배부르지 못할 것이며
If his children be multiplied , it is for the sword : and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread .
15. 그 남은 자는 염병으로 묻히리니 그의 과부들이 울지 못할 것이며
Those that remain of him shall be buried in death : and his widows shall not weep .
16. 그가 비록 은을 티끌 같이 쌓고 의복을 진흙 같이 예비할지라도
Though he heap up silver as the dust , and prepare raiment as the clay ;
17. 그 예비한 것을 의인이 입을 것이요 그 은은 무죄자가 나눌 것이며
He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on , and the innocent shall divide the silver .
18. 그 지은 집은 좀의 집 같고 상직군의 초막 같을 것이며
He buildeth his house as a moth , and as a booth that the keeper maketh .
19. 부자로 누우나 그 조상에게로 돌아가지 못할 것이요 눈을 뜬즉 없어졌으리라
The rich man shall lie down , but he shall not be gathered : he openeth his eyes , and he is not.
20. 두려움이 물 같이 그를 따라 미칠 것이요 폭풍이 밤에 그를 빼앗아갈 것이며
Terrors take hold on him as waters , a tempest stealeth him away in the night .
21. 동풍이 그를 날려 보내며 그 처소에서 몰아 내리라
The east wind carrieth him away , and he departeth : and as a storm hurleth him out of his place .
22. 하나님이 그를 아끼지 아니하시고 쏘시나니 그가 그 손에서 피하려 하여도 못할 것이라
For God shall cast upon him, and not spare : he would fain flee out of his hand .
23. 사람들이 박장하며 비소하고 그 처소에서 몰아내리라
Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place .

【욥27:1 JFB】욥27:1-23.
It was now Zophar's turn to speak. But as he and the other two were silent, virtually admitting defeat, after a pause Job proceeds.
1. parable—applied in the East to a figurative sententious embodiment of wisdom in poetic form, a gnome (시49:4).
continued—proceeded to put forth; implying elevation of discourse.
【욥27:1 CWC】[THIRD SERIES OF THE DEBATE]
(1) With Eliphaz, 22-24.
(a) Speech of Eliphaz, 22.
(b) Reply of Job, 23, 24.
(2) With Bildad, 25, 26.
(a) Speech of Bildad, 2$.
(b) Reply of Job, 26.
(3) With Zophar, 27-31.
(a) * * * * * *
(b) Continuation of the reply of Job, 27-31.
The last speech Eliphaz makes, chapter 22, is a grand effort to refute Job based upon the latter's appeal to facts. There is more severity in it than he has shown before. He charges Job with cruelty, oppression and injustice as a magistrate. Therefore, no wonder such calamities had come upon him. Using the deluge as an illustration, he shows how God must deal with the wicked according to their deserts. Job is exhorted to acquaint himself with God and be at peace with Him, and all might yet be well.
Job replies pathetically. He has no human help, but turns to God. O, that he might come before Him! He cannot seem to find Him, yet he has confidence in Him. His own integrity is once more asserted. It was not true that God always dealt with men on earth in accordance with their character. The wicked often have long prosperity, though he admits they will ultimately be cut off.
Bildad attempts a reply in chapter 25, and yet he seems to realize that the controversy is decided, for he contents himself simply with a description of the power, wisdom and majesty of God, closing with the sentiment expressed before concerning the comparative impurity and insignificance of man. Bildad has, in fact, yielded the argument and retires from the field.
Job speaks in chapter 26 in a strain of irony. His friends have not enlightened him very much. His own views of the greatness of God are superior to those of Bildad. Notice the sublime description of the divine majesty which follows.
Zophar should have replied, but his lips are closed, and Job himself proceeds more calmly in chapters 27 to 31. Once more he refers to the government of God, giving, as Barnes expresses it, "a most beautiful description of the search for wisdom, detailing the discoveries of science in his time, and saying that none of them could disclose it, and concluding that true wisdom can only be found in the fear of the Lord. Once more he maintains his integrity, and concludes that if God would come forth and pronounce a just judgment on him, he would take the decision and bind it on his head as a diadem, and march forth with it in triumph."
【욥27:1 MHCC】Job's friends now suffered him to speak, and he proceeded in a grave and useful manner. Job had confidence in the goodness both of his cause and of his God; and cheerfully committed his cause to him. But Job had not due reverence when he spake of God as taking away his judgment, and vexing his soul. To resolve that our hearts shall not reproach us, while we hold fast our integrity, baffles the designs of the evil spirit.
【욥27:2 JFB】2. (삼상20:3).
taken away … judgment—words unconsciously foreshadowing Jesus Christ (사53:8; 행8:33). God will not give Job his right, by declaring his innocence.
vexed—Hebrew, "made bitter" (룻1:20).
【욥27:3 JFB】3. Implying Job's knowledge of the fact that the living soul was breathed into man by God (창2:7). "All the while." But Maurer, "As yet all my breath is in me" (notwithstanding my trials): the reason why I can speak so boldly.
【욥27:4 JFB】4. (욥6:28, 30). The "deceit" would be if he were to admit guilt against the witness of his conscience.
【욥27:5 JFB】5. justify you—approve of your views.
mine integrity—which you deny, on account of my misfortunes.
【욥27:6 JFB】6. Rather, my "heart" (conscience) reproaches "not one of my days," that is, I do not repent of any of my days since I came into existence [Maurer].
【욥27:7 JFB】7. Let … be—Let mine enemy be accounted as wicked, that is, He who opposes my asseveration of innocence must be regarded as actuated by criminal hostility. Not a curse on his enemies.
【욥27:7 MHCC】Job looked upon the condition of a hypocrite and a wicked man, to be most miserable. If they gained through life by their profession, and kept up their presumptuous hope till death, what would that avail when God required their souls? The more comfort we find in our religion, the more closely we shall cleave to it. Those who have no delight in God, are easily drawn away by the pleasures, and easily overcome by the crosses of this life. (Job 27:11-23)
【욥27:8 JFB】8. "What hope hath the hypocrite, notwithstanding all his gains, when?" &c. "Gained" is antithetic to "taketh away." Umbreit's translation is an unmeaning tautology. "When God cuts off, when He taketh away his life."
taketh away—literally, "draws out" the soul from the body, which is, as it were, its scabbard (욥4:21; 시104:29; 단7:15). Job says that he admits what Bildad said (욥8:13) and Zophar (욥20:5). But he says the very fact of his still calling upon God (욥27:10) amid all his trials, which a hypocrite would not dare to do, shows he is no "hypocrite."
【욥27:9 JFB】9. (시66:18).
【욥27:10 JFB】10. Alluding to 욥22:26.
always call—He may do so in times of prosperity in order to be thought religious. But he will not, as I do, call on God in calamities verging on death. Therefore I cannot be a "hypocrite" (욥19:25; 20:5; 시62:8).
【욥27:11 JFB】11-23. These words are contrary to Job's previous sentiments (see on 욥21:22-33; 욥24:22-25). 욥21:22-33; 24:22-25). They therefore seem to be Job's statement, not so much of his own sentiments, as of what Zophar would have said had he spoken when his turn came (end of the twenty-sixth chapter). So Job stated the friends' opinion (욥21:17-21; 24:18-21). The objection is, why, if so, does not Job answer Zophar's opinion, as stated by himself? The fact is, it is probable that Job tacitly, by giving, in the twenty-eighth chapter, only a general answer, implies, that in spite of the wicked often dying, as he said, in prosperity, he does not mean to deny that the wicked are in the main dealt with according to right, and that God herein vindicates His moral government even here. Job therefore states Zophar's argument more strongly than Zophar would have done. But by comparing 욥27:13 with 욥20:29 ("portion," "heritage"), it will be seen, it is Zophar's argument, rather than his own, that Job states. Granting it to be true, implies Job, you ought not to use it as an argument to criminate me. For (욥28:1-28) the ways of divine wisdom in afflicting the godly are inscrutable: all that is sure to man is, the fear of the Lord is wisdom (욥28:28).
by the hand—rather, concerning the hand of God, namely, what God does in governing men.
with the Almighty—the counsel or principle which regulates God's dealings.
【욥27:11 MHCC】Job's friends, on the same subject, spoke of the misery of wicked men before death as proportioned to their crimes; Job considered that if it were not so, still the consequences of their death would be dreadful. Job undertook to set this matter in a true light. Death to a godly man, is like a fair gale of wind to convey him to the heavenly country; but, to a wicked man, it is like a storm, that hurries him away to destruction. While he lived, he had the benefit of sparing mercy; but now the day of God's patience is over, and he will pour out upon him his wrath. When God casts down a man, there is no flying from, nor bearing up under his anger. Those who will not now flee to the arms of Divine grace, which are stretched out to receive them, will not be able to flee from the arms of Divine wrath, which will shortly be stretched out to destroy them. And what is a man profited if he gain the whole world, and thus lose his own soul?
【욥27:12 JFB】12. "Ye yourselves see" that the wicked often are afflicted (though often the reverse, 욥21:33). But do you "vainly" make this an argument to prove from my afflictions that I am wicked?
【욥27:13 JFB】13. (See on 욥27:11).
【욥27:14 JFB】14. His family only increases to perish by sword or famine (렘18:21; 욥5:20, the converse).
【욥27:15 JFB】15. Those that escape war and famine (욥27:14) shall be buried by the deadly plague—"death" (욥18:13; 렘15:2; 계6:8). The plague of the Middle Ages was called "the black death." Buried by it implies that they would have none else but the death plague itself (poetically personified) to perform their funeral rites, that is, would have no one.
his—rather, "their widows." Transitions from singular to plural are frequent. Polygamy is not implied.
【욥27:16 JFB】16. dust … clay—images of multitudes (Z전9:3). Many changes of raiment are a chief constituent of wealth in the East.
【욥27:17 JFB】17. Introverted parallelism. (See Introduction). Of the four clauses in the two verses, one answers to four, two to three (so 마7:6).
【욥27:18 JFB】18. (욥8:14; 4:19). The transition is natural from "raiment" (욥27:16) to the "house" of the "moth" in it, and of it, when in its larva state. The moth worm's house is broken whenever the "raiment" is shaken out, so frail is it.
booth—a bough-formed hut which the guard of a vineyard raises for temporary shelter (사1:8).
【욥27:19 JFB】19. gathered—buried honorably (창25:8; 왕하22:20). But Umbreit, agreeably to 욥27:18, which describes the short continuance of the sinner's prosperity, "He layeth himself rich in his bed, and nothing is robbed from him, he openeth his eyes, and nothing more is there." If English Version be retained, the first clause probably means, rich though he be in dying, he shall not be honored with a funeral; the second, When he opens his eyes in the unseen world, it is only to see his destruction: the Septuagint reads for "not gathered," He does not proceed, that is, goes to his bed no more. So Maurer.
【욥27:20 JFB】20. (욥18:11; 22:11, 21). Like a sudden violent flood (사8:7, 8; 렘47:2): conversely (시32:6).
【욥27:21 JFB】21. (욥21:18; 15:2; 시58:9).
【욥27:22 JFB】22. cast—namely, thunderbolts (욥6:4; 7:20; 16:13; 시7:12, 13).
