Chinese (traditional)Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger. But they who wait for the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint. Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. For it is you who light my lamp;
the Lord my God lightens my darkness. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. O Lord, you are my God;
I will exalt you; I will praise your name,
for you have done wonderful things,
plans formed of old, faithful and sure. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. You are a hiding place for me;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. I appeal to you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment. For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven. Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation. When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober. A rich man's wealth is his strong city,
and like a high wall in his imagination. For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace. Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. For a thousand years in your sight
are but as yesterday when it is past,
or as a watch in the night. You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. Commit your work to the Lord,
and your plans will be established. So we can confidently say,
“The Lord is my helper;
I will not fear;
what can man do to me?” Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. I will praise you with an upright heart,
when I learn your righteous rules. But sexual immorality and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints. To him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.Next verse!With image
