Chinese (traditional)- But if you seek the Lord, your God, and you strive with all your heart and your soul, you will find him there.
- The future bodes well for him
who is generous in helping those in need
and who conducts his affairs with justice. - When you search for me, you will find me. When you seek me with all your heart.
- For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall also be united with him in his resurrection. We know that our old self was crucified with him, so that our sinful body might be destroyed and we might no longer be enslaved to sin.
- I will offer praise to you, O Lord,
with my whole heart;
I will recount all your wondrous deeds. - To the loyal, you show yourself to be loyal;
to the blameless, you show yourself to be blameless. - I baptize you with water for repentance, but the one who is coming after me is more powerful than I am. I am not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
- But if we hope for what we do not yet see, then we wait for it with patience.
- Seek peace with everyone, as well as the holiness without which no one will ever see the Lord.
- Therefore, since Christ suffered in the flesh, you should arm yourselves also with the same intention. For anyone who has suffered in the flesh has finished with sin.
- I myself did not know him,
but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me,
‘The one on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest
is the one who is to baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ - Jesus looked at them and said, “For men this is impossible, but for God all things are possible.”
- Jesus then said,
“I will remain with you
only for a short time longer,
and then I shall return
to him who sent me.” - When they had finished their prayer, the place where they were gathered together shook, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and proclaimed the word of God fearlessly.
- Behold, I am coming soon, and I will bring with me my reward to repay everyone as his deeds deserve.
- Do not repay evil with evil or abuse with abuse. On the contrary, repay with a blessing. This is what you were called to do, so that you might inherit a blessing.
- Therefore, now that we have been justified by faith, we are at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
- Turn away from youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, together with those who call on the Lord with a pure heart.
- Guard your heart with all possible vigilance,
for from it flow the wellsprings of life. - And I will ask the Father,
and he will give you another Advocate
to be with you forever. - When pride is nurtured, disgrace soon follows,
but wisdom is the hallmark of the humble. - Love one another with genuine affection. Esteem others more highly than yourself.
- An ignorant man causes strife by his insolence,
but wisdom is found with those who take advice. - With his mouth the godless man seeks to ruin his neighbor,
but knowledge enables the righteous to be delivered. - Then the God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
You are a place of refuge for me;
you preserve me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance. SelahBear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. I have told you this
so that in me you may be in peace.
In the world
you will endure suffering.
But take courage!
I have overcome the world.Next verse!With image
