Chinese (traditional)- When you pray do not go on babbling endlessly as the pagans do, for they believe that they are more likely to be heard because of their many words.
- Pleasing words are like a honeycomb,
sweet to the soul and affording health to the body. - Give thanks to the Lord, invoke his name;
proclaim his deeds among the peoples. - So shall my word be
that issues forth from my mouth.
It will not return to me unfulfilled,
but it will accomplish my purpose
and achieve what I sent it forth to do. - A fool takes no pleasure in understanding
but only delights in expressing his own opinions. - Deliver me, O Lord, from lying lips
and from deceitful tongues. - With his mouth the godless man seeks to ruin his neighbor,
but knowledge enables the righteous to be delivered. - Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart
find favor in your sight,
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. - The lips of a fool cause strife,
and his mouth provokes a flogging. - Diligent labor always yields profit,
but idle conversation only leads to poverty. - If in speaking I use human tongues
and angelic as well,
but do not have love,
I am nothing more than a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. - Anxiety in the human heart weighs it down,
but a kind word makes it glad. - The lips of the righteous utter words of kindness,
but the mouth of the wicked knows only how to pervert. - Then keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from telling lies. - And whatever you do in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
- Turn away from the mouth that deceives
and keep your distance from lips that mislead. - It is honorable to avoid strife,
but every fool is quarrelsome. - Take no part in the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather seek to expose them.
For it is shameful even to speak of what deeds people do in secret. - A word is not even on my tongue
and you, O Lord, are completely aware of it. - The tongue of the just man is like pure silver;
the heart of the wicked is without worth. - As long as I remained silent,
my body wasted away
as the result of my groaning throughout the day. - Lying lips conceal hatred,
and anyone who slanders another is a fool. - If anyone thinks that he is religious but does not restrain his tongue, he is deceiving himself, and his religion is worthless.
- Speak out and pronounce righteous judgments;
defend the rights of the wretched and the poor. - For one believes in the heart and so is justified, and one confesses with the mouth and so is saved.
Jesus answered them, “Amen, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what has been done to this fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ it will be accomplished.”Surely God is my helper;
the Lord is the one who sustains me. For the Lord himself is the one who bestows wisdom;
from his mouth come forth knowledge and understanding.Next verse!With image
