Chinese (traditional)Happy are those whose transgression is forgiven,
whose sin is covered. Let marriage be held in honor by all, and let the marriage bed be kept undefiled; for God will judge fornicators and adulterers. Each of you must give as you have made up your mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. By day the Lord commands his steadfast love,
and at night his song is with me,
a prayer to the God of my life. And the world and its desire are passing away, but those who do the will of God live forever. And God, who searches the heart, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. With my whole heart I seek you;
do not let me stray from your commandments. Whatever your task, put yourselves into it, as done for the Lord and not for your masters, since you know that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward; you serve the Lord Christ. They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit. When they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God with boldness. You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,
will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.” Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good. For as in one body we have many members, and not all the members have the same function, so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually we are members one of another. Then I saw that all toil and all skill in work come from one person's envy of another. This also is vanity and a chasing after wind. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my help and my God. Do not repay evil for evil or abuse for abuse; but, on the contrary, repay with a blessing. It is for this that you were called—that you might inherit a blessing. Wealth hastily gotten will dwindle,
but those who gather little by little will increase it. Then he led them out as far as Bethany, and, lifting up his hands, he blessed them. While he was blessing them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven. And he said to them, “Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one's life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” I am coming soon; hold fast to what you have, so that no one may seize your crown. I sought the Lord, and he answered me,
and delivered me from all my fears. Go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners. For we have become partners of Christ, if only we hold our first confidence firm to the end. He heals the brokenhearted,
and binds up their wounds. Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete. Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with thanksgiving. Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. As far as the east is from the west,
so far he removes our transgressions from us. And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.Next verse!With image
