Chinese (traditional)
Do not say, “Why were the old days better than these?”
For it is not wise to ask such questions. Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this. Say not, “Why were the former days better than these?”
For it is not from wisdom that you ask this. Do not say,
“Why were the former days better than these?”
For you do not inquire wisely concerning this. Don’t long for “the good old days.”
This is not wise. Do not say, “Why were the former days better than these?”
For it is not from wisdom that you ask this. Don’t say, “Why were the former days better than these?” For you do not ask wisely about this. Do not say, “Why is it that the former days were better than these?”
For it is not from wisdom that you ask about this. Do not assert that the past was better than the present,
for such a statement is not a sign of wisdom. You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.Next verse!With image
