Ephesians 5:16以弗所書 5:16
redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
要愛惜光陰,因為現今的世代邪惡。
Galatians 2:21加拉太書 2:21
I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.
我不廢掉神的恩;義若是藉著律法得的,基督就是徒然死了。
Galatians 6:17加拉太書 6:17
“From now on let no one cause trouble for me, for I bear on my body the brand marks of Jesus.”
「從今以後,人都不要攪擾我,因為我身上帶著耶穌的印記。」
Ephesians 6:10–20以弗所書 6:10–20
10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
18praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints — 19and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
10我還有末了的話:你們要靠著主,倚賴他的大能大力作剛強的人。11要穿戴神所賜的全副軍裝,就能抵擋魔鬼的詭計。12因我們並不是與屬血氣的爭戰,乃是與那些執政的、掌權的、管轄這幽暗世界的,以及天空屬靈氣的惡魔爭戰。13所以,要拿起神所賜的全副軍裝,好在磨難的日子抵擋仇敵,並且成就了一切,還能站立得住。
14所以要站穩了,用真理當作帶子束腰,用公義當作護心鏡遮胸,15又用平安的福音當作預備走路的鞋穿在腳上。16此外,又拿著信德當作藤牌,可以滅盡那惡者一切的火箭;17並戴上救恩的頭盔,拿著聖靈的寶劍,就是神的道;
18靠著聖靈,隨時多方禱告祈求,並要在此警醒不倦,為眾聖徒祈求,19也為我祈求,使我得著口才,能以放膽開口講明福音的奧祕,20我為這福音的奧祕作了帶鎖鍊的使者,並使我照著當盡的本分放膽講論。
Ephesians 5:8–14以弗所書 5:8–14
8For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light 9(for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), 10finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. 11And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. 12For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. 13But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.
14Therefore He says: “Awake, you who sleep, arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light.”
8從前你們是暗昧的,但如今在主裡面是光明的,行事為人就當像光明的子女。9光明所結的果子就是一切良善、公義、誠實。10總要察驗何為主所喜悅的事。11那暗昧無益的事,不要與人同行,倒要責備行這事的人;12因為他們暗中所行的,就是提起來也是可恥的。13凡事受了責備,就被光顯明出來,因為一切能顯明的就是光。
14所以主說:「你這睡著的人當醒過來,從死裡復活!基督就要光照你了。」
1 Thessalonians 5:16–24帖撒羅尼迦前書 5:16–24
16Rejoice always, 17pray without ceasing, 18in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 19Do not quench the Spirit. 20Do not despise prophecies. 21Test all things; hold fast what is good. 22Abstain from every form of evil.
23Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.
16要常常喜樂,17不住地禱告,18凡事謝恩;因為這是神在基督耶穌裡向你們所定的旨意。19不要消滅聖靈的感動;20不要藐視先知的講論。21但要凡事察驗,善美的要持守,22各樣的惡事要禁戒不做。
23願賜平安的神親自使你們全然成聖!又願你們的靈與魂與身子得蒙保守,在我主耶穌基督降臨的時候完全無可指摘!24那召你們的本是信實的,他必成就這事。
Hebrews 12:2希伯來書 12:2
looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
仰望為我們信心創始成終的耶穌。他因那擺在前面的喜樂,就輕看羞辱,忍受了十字架的苦難,便坐在神寶座的右邊。
1 Corinthians 15:51–52哥林多前書 15:51–52
51Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed — 52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
51我如今把一件奧祕的事告訴你們:我們不是都要睡覺,乃是都要改變,52就在一時,眨眼之間,號筒末次吹響的時候。因號筒要響,死人要復活成為不朽壞的,我們也要改變。
