Chinese (traditional)The blessing of the Lord is what brings wealth,
and our toil adds nothing to it. You are the light of the world. A city built upon a mountain cannot be hidden. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who are peacemakers. A house and wealth are inherited from parents,
but a prudent wife is a gift from the Lord. And if then my people who bear my name humble themselves and pray to me and seek my presence as they turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear them from heaven and forgive their sins and restore their land. Now this Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stand in the way of sinners,
nor sit in the company of scoffers. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the world. This is the commandment
we have received from him:
whoever loves God
must also love his brother. Diligent labor always yields profit,
but idle conversation only leads to poverty. The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you all. If your brother wrongs you, go and take up the matter with him when the two of you are alone. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. Protect me, O God,
for in you I take refuge. Therefore, observe the commandments of the Lord, your God. Walk in his ways and fear him. The end of all things is near. Therefore, lead disciplined lives and be watchful in prayer. Set me as a seal on your heart,
as a seal upon your arm.
For love is as strong as death,
and ardor is as relentless as the netherworld.
Its flames are flashes of fire,
an unending blaze. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and then you will be my witnesses not only in Jerusalem, but throughout Judea and Samaria, and indeed to the farthest ends of the earth. But I say to you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. Do not wear yourself out in the pursuit of wealth,
and cease even to think about it. And as we gaze upon the glory of the Lord with unveiled faces, all of us are being transformed into that same image from glory to glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything impossible for me to accomplish? I lifted up my voice in prayer to him;
his praise was on my tongue. Yet even if you should suffer for doing what is right, you are thereby blessed. Have no fear of others, and refuse to be intimidated by them. For nothing will be impossible for God. A man’s pride will bring him low,
but lowly souls will rise to honor. But even so the Lord is waiting to be gracious to you,
and he will rise up to grant you his compassion.
For the Lord is a God of justice;
blessed are all those who wait for him. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the Church and gave himself up for her in order to sanctify her by cleansing her with water and the word. For the word of the Lord is true,
and he is faithful in everything he does. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified of them, for the Lord, your God, is going forth with you. He will never leave you or abandon you. As far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us. And let the peace of Christ reign in your hearts, because it was for this that you were called together in one body. Always be thankful.Next verse!With image
