Chinese (traditional)Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. Yet I have been the Lord your God
ever since the land of Egypt;
you know no God but me,
and besides me there is no savior. But the steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting
on those who fear him,
and his righteousness to children's children,
to those who keep his covenant
and remember to do his commandments. Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. See, I am coming soon; my reward is with me, to repay according to everyone's work. The unfolding of your words gives light;
it imparts understanding to the simple. While he was going and they were gazing up toward heaven, suddenly two men in white robes stood by them. They said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up toward heaven? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.” The Lord, your God, is in your midst,
a warrior who gives victory;
he will rejoice over you with gladness,
he will renew you in his love;
he will exult over you with loud singing. Those who say, “I love God,” and hate their brothers or sisters, are liars; for those who do not love a brother or sister whom they have seen, cannot love God whom they have not seen. When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul. Because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. When Jesus heard this, he replied, “Do not fear. Only believe, and she will be saved.” All deeds are right in the sight of the doer,
but the Lord weighs the heart. Love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honor. I have come to call not the righteous but sinners to repentance. Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him;
do not fret over those who prosper in their way,
over those who carry out evil devices. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, so that he may exalt you in due time. Cure the sick who are there, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ Happy are those whose way is blameless,
who walk in the law of the Lord. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are open to their prayer.
But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil. O come, let us worship and bow down,
let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.” Repent and turn from all your transgressions; otherwise iniquity will be your ruin. This poor soul cried, and was heard by the Lord,
and was saved from every trouble. For one believes with the heart and so is justified, and one confesses with the mouth and so is saved. There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among mortals by which we must be saved. God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble. Then when you call upon me and come and pray to me, I will hear you. Finally, brothers and sisters, farewell. Put things in order, listen to my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. When I thought, “My foot is slipping,”
your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up. And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation.” Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?Next verse!With image
