箴言 24:17
- 18
Do not gloat when your enemy falls; when they stumble, do not let your heart rejoice,
or the Lord will see and disapprove and turn his wrath away from them. Saying 29
你仇敵跌倒,你不要歡喜;他傾倒,你心不要快樂;
恐怕耶和華看見就不喜悅,將怒氣從仇敵身上轉過來。
哥林多前書 9:24
Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.
豈不知在場上賽跑的都跑,但得獎賞的只有一人?你們也當這樣跑,好叫你們得著獎賞。
哥林多前書 9:25
Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.
凡較力爭勝的,諸事都有節制,他們不過是要得能壞的冠冕;我們卻是要得不能壞的冠冕。
提摩太後書 2:5
Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor's crown except by competing according to the rules.
人若在場上比武,非按規矩,就不能得冠冕。
羅馬書 12:8
- 10
if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.
或作勸化的,就當專一勸化;施捨的,就當誠實;治理的,就當殷勤;憐憫人的,就當甘心。
愛人不可虛假;惡要厭惡,善要親近。
愛弟兄,要彼此親熱;恭敬人,要彼此推讓。
提摩太前書 4:7
- 8
Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives' tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.
For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.
只是要棄絕那世俗的言語和老婦荒渺的話,在敬虔上操練自己。
「操練身體,益處還少;惟獨敬虔,凡事都有益處,因有今生和來生的應許。」
