Chinese (traditional)But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength.
They will mount up with wings like eagles.
They will run, and not be weary.
They will walk, and not faint. Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance. For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways,
and my thoughts than your thoughts. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? For whoever finds me finds life,
and will obtain favor from Yahweh. The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks. I love you, Yahweh, my strength.
Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer;
my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge;
my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower. We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you toward one another abounds. But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed. You shall serve Yahweh your God, and he will bless your bread and your water, and I will take sickness away from among you. Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. If I give away all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but don’t have love, it profits me nothing. But I will sing of your strength.
Yes, I will sing aloud of your loving kindness in the morning.
For you have been my high tower,
a refuge in the day of my distress. Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope in the power of the Holy Spirit. If I speak with the languages of men and of angels, but don’t have love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. You who love Yahweh, hate evil!
He preserves the souls of his saints.
He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked. Doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. He loves righteousness and justice.
The earth is full of the loving kindness of Yahweh. Love is patient and is kind. Love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud, doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil. Love doesn’t harm a neighbor. Love therefore is the fulfillment of the law. Learn to do well.
Seek justice.
Relieve the oppressed.
Defend the fatherless.
Plead for the widow. Do all things without complaining and arguing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world, holding up the word of life. Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal. Wash yourselves. Make yourself clean.
Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes.
Cease to do evil. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. We love him, because he first loved us. Yahweh, you are my God. I will exalt you! I will praise your name, for you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago, in complete faithfulness and truth. In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins. Yahweh himself is who goes before you. He will be with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged.Next verse!With image
