以弗所書 2:21
- 22
In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord.
And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.
各(或作:全)房靠他聯絡得合式,漸漸成為主的聖殿。
你們也靠他同被建造,成為神藉著聖靈居住的所在。
撒母耳記下 7:5
- 7
"Go and tell my servant David, 'This is what the Lord says: Are you the one to build me a house to dwell in?
I have not dwelt in a house from the day I brought the Israelites up out of Egypt to this day. I have been moving from place to place with a tent as my dwelling.
Wherever I have moved with all the Israelites, did I ever say to any of their rulers whom I commanded to shepherd my people Israel, "Why have you not built me a house of cedar?" '
「你去告訴我僕人大衛,說耶和華如此說:『你豈可建造殿宇給我居住呢?
自從我領以色列人出埃及直到今日,我未曾住過殿宇,常在會幕和帳幕中行走。
凡我同以色列人所走的地方,我何曾向以色列一支派的士師,就是我吩咐牧養我民以色列的說:你們為何不給我建造香柏木的殿宇呢?』
歷代志下 7:14
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
這稱為我名下的子民,若是自卑、禱告,尋求我的面,轉離他們的惡行,我必從天上垂聽,赦免他們的罪,醫治他們的地。
彼得前書 2:5
you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
你們來到主面前,也就像活石,被建造成為靈宮,作聖潔的祭司,藉著耶穌基督奉獻神所悅納的靈祭。
以賽亞書 66:1
- 2
This is what the Lord says: "Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. Where is the house you will build for me? Where will my resting place be?
Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?" declares the Lord. "These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit, and who tremble at my word.
耶和華如此說:天是我的座位;地是我的腳凳。你們要為我造何等的殿宇?那裡是我安息的地方呢?
耶和華說:這一切都是我手所造的,所以就都有了。但我所看顧的,就是虛心(原文作貧窮)痛悔、因我話而戰兢的人。
哥林多前書 3:16
- 17
Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in your midst?
If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy that person; for God's temple is sacred, and you together are that temple.
豈不知你們是神的殿,神的靈住在你們裡頭嗎?
若有人毀壞神的殿,神必要毀壞那人;因為神的殿是聖的,這殿就是你們。
尼希米記 2:20
I answered them by saying, "The God of heaven will give us success. We his servants will start rebuilding, but as for you, you have no share in Jerusalem or any claim or historic right to it."
我回答他們說:「天上的神必使我們亨通。我們作他僕人的,要起來建造;你們卻在耶路撒冷無分、無權、無紀念。」
約翰福音 4:24
God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth."
神是個靈(或無個字),所以拜他的必須用心靈和誠實拜他。
