希伯來書 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
你們存心不可貪愛錢財,要以自己所有的為足;因為主曾說:『我總不撇下你,也不丟棄你。』
馬太福音 6:19
- 21
"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
「不要為自己積儹財寶在地上;地上有蟲子咬,能(金秀)壞,也有賊挖窟窿來偷。
只要積儹財寶在天上;天上沒有蟲子咬,不能(金秀)壞,也沒有賊挖窟窿來偷。
因為你的財寶在那裡,你的心也在那裡。」

- 4
And now, brothers and sisters, we want you to know about the grace that God has given the Macedonian churches.
In the midst of a very severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity.
For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and even beyond their ability. Entirely on their own,
they urgently pleaded with us for the privilege of sharing in this service to the Lord's people.
弟兄們,我把神賜給馬其頓眾教會的恩告訴你們,
就是他們在患難中受大試煉的時候,仍有滿足的快樂,在極窮之間還格外顯出他們樂捐的厚恩。
我可以證明,他們是按著力量,而且也過了力量,自己甘心樂意的捐助,
再三的求我們,准他們在這供給聖徒的恩情上有分;
