Chinese (traditional)You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. The Lord makes firm the steps
of the one who delights in him. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? You make known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand. And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors. May the Lord our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may he never leave us nor forsake us. The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me? Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you. An honest witness does not deceive,
but a false witness pours out lies. Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. The grass withers and the flowers fall,
but the word of our God endures forever. A cheerful heart is good medicine,
but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you. You make your saving help my shield,
and your right hand sustains me;
your help has made me great.
You provide a broad path for my feet,
so that my ankles do not give way. May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had. However, as it is written:
“What no eye has seen,
what no ear has heard,
and what no human mind has conceived”—
the things God has prepared for those who love him. Though one may be overpowered,
two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken. “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord. No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. Better a little with righteousness
than much gain with injustice. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord. Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!” That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. Those who know your name trust in you,
for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you. Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. Who is he, this King of glory?
The Lord Almighty—
he is the King of glory. Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise.Next verse!With image
