馬太福音 25:29
For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.
因為凡有的,還要加給他,叫他有餘;沒有的,連他所有的也要奪過來。
傳道書 11:4
- 6
Whoever watches the wind will not plant; whoever looks at the clouds will not reap.
As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.
Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well.
看風的,必不撒種;望雲的,必不收割。
風從何道來,骨頭在懷孕婦人的胎中如何長成,你尚且不得知道;這樣,行萬事之神的作為,你更不得知道。
早晨要撒你的種,晚上也不要歇你的手,因為你不知道哪一樣發旺;或是早撒的,或是晚撒的,或是兩樣都好。
傳道書 11:1
- 3
Ship your grain across the sea; after many days you may receive a return.
Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.
If clouds are full of water, they pour rain on the earth. Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where it falls, there it will lie.
當將你的糧食撒在水面,因為日久必能得著。
你要分給七人,或分給八人,因為你不知道將來有什麼災禍臨到地上。
雲若滿了雨,就必傾倒在地上。樹若向南倒,或向北倒,樹倒在何處,就存在何處。
申命記 10:11
- 12
"Go," the Lord said to me, "and lead the people on their way, so that they may enter and possess the land I swore to their ancestors to give them."
And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
耶和華吩咐我說:『你起來引導這百姓,使他們進去得我向他們列祖起誓應許所賜之地。』」
「以色列啊,現在耶和華你神向你所要的是什麼呢?只要你敬畏耶和華你的神,遵行他的道,愛他,盡心盡性事奉他,
撒母耳記上 14:6
- 7
Jonathan said to his young armor-bearer, "Come, let's go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised men. Perhaps the Lord will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the Lord from saving, whether by many or by few."
"Do all that you have in mind," his armor-bearer said. "Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul."
約拿單對拿兵器的少年人說:「我們不如過到未受割禮人的防營那裡去,或者耶和華為我們施展能力;因為耶和華使人得勝,不在乎人多人少。」
拿兵器的對他說:「隨你的心意行吧。你可以上去,我必跟隨你,與你同心。」
列王記下 7:4
If we say, 'We'll go into the city'-the famine is there, and we will die. And if we stay here, we will die. So let's go over to the camp of the Arameans and surrender. If they spare us, we live; if they kill us, then we die."
我們若說,進城去吧!城裡有饑荒,必死在那裡;若在這裡坐著不動,也必是死。來吧,我們去投降亞蘭人的軍隊,他們若留我們的活命,就活著;若殺我們,就死了吧!」
提摩太前書 6:9
- 10
Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
但那些想要發財的人,就陷在迷惑、落在網羅和許多無知有害的私慾裡,叫人沉在敗壞和滅亡中。
貪財是萬惡之根。有人貪戀錢財,就被引誘離了真道,用許多愁苦把自己刺透了。
申命記 31:6
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."
你們當剛強壯膽,不要害怕,也不要畏懼他們,因為耶和華你的神和你同去。他必不撇下你,也不丟棄你。」
約書亞記 1:9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."
我豈沒有吩咐你嗎?你當剛強壯膽!不要懼怕,也不要驚惶;因為你無論往那裡去,耶和華你的神必與你同在。」
哥林多前書 15:30
And as for us, why do we endanger ourselves every hour?
我們又因何時刻冒險呢?
