Chinese (traditional)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. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. Because your steadfast love is better than life,
my lips will praise you.
So I will bless you as long as I live;
I will lift up my hands and call on your name. If you conquer, you will be clothed like them in white robes, and I will not blot your name out of the book of life; I will confess your name before my Father and before his angels. Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow into salvation. How much better to get wisdom than gold!
To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver. I reprove and discipline those whom I love. Be earnest, therefore, and repent. Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul. This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth; you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to act in accordance with all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall be successful. Love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honor. The integrity of the upright guides them,
but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them. Because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being. As a father has compassion for his children,
so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him. Know then in your heart that as a parent disciplines a child so the Lord your God disciplines you. Let your gentleness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise,
but the companion of fools suffers harm. 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. The reward for humility and fear of the Lord
is riches and honor and life. When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. 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.” When I thought, “My foot is slipping,”
your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us. He saved us, not because of any works of righteousness that we had done, but according to his mercy, through the water of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit. To do righteousness and justice
is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. Yours, O Lord, are the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty; for all that is in the heavens and on the earth is yours; yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all. God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble. I am the gate. Whoever enters by me will be saved, and will come in and go out and find pasture.
