Chinese (traditional)- It is honorable to avoid strife,
but every fool is quarrelsome. - There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free man, there is no longer male or female. For all of you are one in Christ Jesus.
- For the wages of sin is death, but the gift freely given by God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
- The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. - Do not withhold kindness from anyone to whom it is due
when it is in your power to grant it. - How much more valuable a man is than a sheep! Therefore, it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.
- Great is the Lord and worthy of the highest praise;
no one can even begin to comprehend his greatness. - Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
- To do your will, O God, is my delight;
your law is in my heart. - O Lord, all my longing is known to you,
and my sighs are not hidden from you. - Stay awake and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit is indeed willing, but the flesh is weak.
- To do what is right and just
is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. - In it the righteousness of God is revealed, beginning in faith and established in faith. As it is written: “The one who is righteous will live through faith.”
- The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.
- But what I tell you is this: Do not swear at all, either by heaven, since it is God’s throne, or by earth, since that is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, since that is the city of the great King.
- “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “the one who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
- He is the head of the body,
that is, the Church.
He is the beginning,
the firstborn from the dead,
so that in every way
he should be supreme. - Who indeed conquers the world
except the one who believes
that Jesus is the Son of God? - There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save or to destroy. Who then are you to pass judgment on a neighbor?
- There is no salvation in anyone else, nor is there any other name under heaven given to men by which we can be saved.
- Our God is in heaven;
he does whatever he pleases. - A man is joyful when he utters apt answers,
and even more satisfying is a word in season. - For our eyes are fixed not on what is seen but rather on that which cannot be seen. What is visible is transitory; what is invisible is eternal.
- He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress, so that I stand unshaken. - Wives, be subject to your husbands as you are to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, just as Christ is the head of the Church, the body of which he is the Savior.
All this took place in order to fulfill what the Lord had announced through the prophet:
“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and give birth to a son,
and they shall name him Emmanuel,”
a name that means “God is with us.” Rather, be kind to one another and compassionate, and forgive one another as God has forgiven you in Christ.Next verse!With image
