Chinese (traditional)Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased! Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,
and establish the work of our hands upon us;
yes, establish the work of our hands! Pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed, revenue to whom revenue is owed, respect to whom respect is owed, honor to whom honor is owed. But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. God, the Lord, is my strength;
he makes my feet like the deer's;
he makes me tread on my high places. For nothing will be impossible with God. But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. I love you, O Lord, my strength.
The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,
my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are open to their prayer.
But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil. You shall diligently keep the commandments of the Lord your God, and his testimonies and his statutes, which he has commanded you. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it. Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his steadfast love. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. Having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints. It is a snare to say rashly, “It is holy,”
and to reflect only after making vows. For it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me,
and every tongue shall confess to God.” So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable in your sight,
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. Only fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart. For consider what great things he has done for you. Righteousness exalts a nation,
but sin is a reproach to any people. Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin.” The steps of a man are established by the Lord,
when he delights in his way. So that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence. And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors. Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,
but those who plan peace have joy. Fear not, for I am with you;
be not dismayed, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you, I will help you,
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.Next verse!With image
