Chinese (traditional)- Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
- Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.
- Very truly I tell you, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.
- I ate no choice food; no meat or wine touched my lips; and I used no lotions at all until the three weeks were over.
- I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
- If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
- I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
- But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.
- I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.
- I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong— that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.
- But I trust in your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in your salvation.
I will sing the Lord’s praise,
for he has been good to me. - And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.
- “Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?” declares the Lord.
“Do not I fill heaven and earth?” declares the Lord. - For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
- Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me. - When I said, “My foot is slipping,”
your unfailing love, Lord, supported me. - You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I am.
- I rejoice in following your statutes
as one rejoices in great riches. - You are to be holy to me because I, the Lord, am holy, and I have set you apart from the nations to be my own.
- My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
- Keep my commands and follow them. I am the Lord.
- I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
- I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.
- Since you are precious and honored in my sight,
and because I love you,
I will give people in exchange for you,
nations in exchange for your life. - You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.Next verse!With image
