Chinese (traditional)For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. Surely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
smitten by God, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
and with his wounds we are healed. Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. Whoever covers an offense seeks love,
but he who repeats a matter separates close friends. We love because he first loved us. For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control. Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness
will find life, righteousness, and honor. But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. The Lord is on my side; I will not fear.
What can man do to me? Seek good, and not evil,
that you may live;
and so the Lord, the God of hosts, will be with you,
as you have said. Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. He has told you, O man, what is good;
and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God? For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” Or can one walk on hot coals
and his feet not be scorched? Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For on him God the Father has set his seal. So that by God's will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth. For I will satisfy the weary soul, and every languishing soul I will replenish. Who builds his upper chambers in the heavens
and founds his vault upon the earth;
who calls for the waters of the sea
and pours them out upon the surface of the earth—
the Lord is his name. Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the law, I would not have known sin. For I would not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, “You shall not covet.” Without counsel plans fail,
but with many advisers they succeed. And Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him on the way. For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving,
abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you. Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word.Next verse!With image
