Chinese (traditional)But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving.
I will pay that which I have vowed.
Salvation belongs to Yahweh. Unless Yahweh builds the house,
they who build it labor in vain.
Unless Yahweh watches over the city,
the watchman guards it in vain. Rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer. I have no greater joy than this: to hear about my children walking in truth. 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. He answered, “Haven’t you read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, ‘For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh’? So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, don’t let man tear apart.” For Yahweh says to the house of Israel:
“Seek me, and you will live.” This is the end of the matter. All has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man. No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us. Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance. May he grant you your heart’s desire,
and fulfill all your counsel. Now I beg you, brothers, through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment. ‘Return, you backsliding Israel,’ says Yahweh; ‘I will not look in anger on you, for I am merciful,’ says Yahweh. ‘I will not keep anger forever.’ Behold, Yahweh’s eye is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his loving kindness. Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. Watch yourselves, that we don’t lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward. The integrity of the upright shall guide them,
but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them. 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. Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting. Turn us again, Yahweh God of Armies.
Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved. But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you. Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all. Train up a child in the way he should go,
and when he is old he will not depart from it. 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. Therefore produce fruit worthy of repentance! Wicked people earn deceitful wages,
but one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward. Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Therefore be merciful,
even as your Father is also merciful. Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
