Chinese (traditional)The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom,
and whatever you get, get insight. Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. In peace I will both lie down and sleep;
for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Bear fruit in keeping with repentance. As in water face reflects face,
so the heart of man reflects the man. And now why do you wait? Rise and be baptized and wash away your sins, calling on his name. For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ. By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. Return, faithless Israel,
declares the Lord.
I will not look on you in anger,
for I am merciful,
declares the Lord;
I will not be angry forever. Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. Eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. For you bless the righteous, O Lord;
you cover him with favor as with a shield. Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator. But, as it is written,
“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has prepared for those who love him” There is none holy like the Lord:
for there is none besides you;
there is no rock like our God. He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world. Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God!
Let your good Spirit lead me
on level ground! For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. See that no one repays anyone evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to everyone. He reveals deep and hidden things;
he knows what is in the darkness,
and the light dwells with him. And when they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. For you are my rock and my fortress;
and for your name's sake you lead me and guide me. And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, that is, the Ten Commandments, and he wrote them on two tablets of stone. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,
but those who plan peace have joy. For so the Lord has commanded us, saying,
‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles,
that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’Next verse!With image
