Chinese (traditional)Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. Humility is the fear of the Lord;
its wages are riches and honor and life. My mouth is filled with your praise,
declaring your splendor all day long. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him. Better a patient person than a warrior,
one with self-control than one who takes a city. Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. And I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. Sin is not ended by multiplying words,
but the prudent hold their tongues. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check. But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul. Do not judge, or you too will be judged. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. How beautiful on the mountains
are the feet of those who bring good news,
who proclaim peace,
who bring good tidings,
who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
“Your God reigns!” Since you are my rock and my fortress,
for the sake of your name lead and guide me. Very truly I tell you, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me. When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze. For, “Whoever would love life
and see good days
must keep their tongue from evil
and their lips from deceitful speech.
They must turn from evil and do good;
they must seek peace and pursue it.” You make your saving help my shield,
and your right hand sustains me;
your help has made me great.
You provide a broad path for my feet,
so that my ankles do not give way. I seek you with all my heart;
do not let me stray from your commands. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You, Lord, reign forever;
your throne endures from generation to generation. Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.
Yours, Lord, is the kingdom;
you are exalted as head over all.Next verse!With image
