Chinese (traditional)Wake up righteously and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame. A fool vents all of his anger,
but a wise man brings himself under control. Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth. By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised. In my distress I called on Yahweh,
and cried to my God.
He heard my voice out of his temple.
My cry before him came into his ears. But these things don’t count; nor do I hold my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to fully testify to the Good News of the grace of God. Do the things which you learned, received, heard, and saw in me, and the God of peace will be with you. That which makes a man to be desired is his kindness.
A poor man is better than a liar. What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity,
and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage?
He doesn’t retain his anger forever,
because he delights in loving kindness. A man’s gift makes room for him,
and brings him before great men. Don’t be deceived! “Evil companionships corrupt good morals.” Beloved, don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. How can a young man keep his way pure?
By living according to your word. Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong! How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty;
one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love. Don’t you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you? For there is not a word on my tongue,
but behold, Yahweh, you know it altogether. But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.” It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to Yahweh your God’s voice, to observe to do all his commandments which I command you today, that Yahweh your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. Let your loving kindness be on us, Yahweh,
since we have hoped in you. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be filled. That their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love, and gaining all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ. Behold, that which I have seen to be good and proper is for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy good in all his labor, in which he labors under the sun, all the days of his life which God has given him; for this is his portion. Whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory, receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls. Yahweh God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him.” Sing to God! Sing praises to his name!
Extol him who rides on the clouds:
to Yah, his name!
Rejoice before him!
A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows,
is God in his holy habitation. In praying, don’t use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking. Every day, in the temple and at home, they never stopped teaching and preaching Jesus, the Christ. As far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
