Chinese (traditional)And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. Search me, O God, and know my heart!
Try me and know my thoughts!
And see if there be any grievous way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting! From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. Whoever covers an offense seeks love,
but he who repeats a matter separates close friends. Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed. For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise. The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me;
your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands. But he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
and with his wounds we are healed. Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. A dishonest man spreads strife,
and a whisperer separates close friends. He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it. You keep him in perfect peace
whose mind is stayed on you,
because he trusts in you. Save us, we pray, O Lord!
O Lord, we pray, give us success!
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
We bless you from the house of the Lord. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. That according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love. Whoever walks in integrity walks securely,
but he who makes his ways crooked will be found out. For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Lord God; so turn, and live. For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. May he grant you your heart's desire
and fulfill all your plans! Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and give no opportunity to the devil. Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience. The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous
and his ears toward their cry. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you. But I will sing of your strength;
I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.
For you have been to me a fortress
and a refuge in the day of my distress. Jesus said to him, “If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.” I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love,
for in you I trust.
Make me know the way I should go,
for to you I lift up my soul.Next verse!With image
