Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

if you obey the Lord your God and keep his commands and decrees that are written in this Book of the Law and turn to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
你若聽從耶和華你神的話，謹守這律法書上所寫的誡命律例，又盡心盡性歸向耶和華你的神，他必使你手裡所辦的一切事，並你身所生的，牲畜所下的，地土所產的都綽綽有餘；因為耶和華必再喜悅你，降福與你，像從前喜悅你列祖一樣。

- 16
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
我的肺腑是你所造的；我在母腹中，你已覆庇我。
我要稱謝你，因我受造，奇妙可畏；你的作為奇妙，這是我心深知道的。
我在暗中受造，在地的深處被聯絡；那時，我的形體並不向你隱藏。
我未成形的體質，你的眼早已看見了；你所定的日子，我尚未度一日（或作：我被造的肢體尚未有其一），你都寫在你的冊上了。
箴言 16:19
Better to be lowly in spirit along with the oppressed than to share plunder with the proud.

耶利米書 1:5
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."

In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.
到那日，你們什麼也就不問我了。我實實在在的告訴你們，你們若向父求什麼，他必因我的名賜給你們。

他必照各人的行為報應各人。

惟有結黨、不順從真理、反順從不義的，就以忿怒、惱恨報應他們。

民數記 9:15
- 23
On the day the tabernacle, the tent of the covenant law, was set up, the cloud covered it. From evening till morning the cloud above the tabernacle looked like fire.
That is how it continued to be; the cloud covered it, and at night it looked like fire.
Whenever the cloud lifted from above the tent, the Israelites set out; wherever the cloud settled, the Israelites encamped.
At the Lord's command the Israelites set out, and at his command they encamped. As long as the cloud stayed over the tabernacle, they remained in camp.
When the cloud remained over the tabernacle a long time, the Israelites obeyed the Lord's order and did not set out.
Sometimes the cloud was over the tabernacle only a few days; at the Lord's command they would encamp, and then at his command they would set out.
Sometimes the cloud stayed only from evening till morning, and when it lifted in the morning, they set out. Whether by day or by night, whenever the cloud lifted, they set out.
Whether the cloud stayed over the tabernacle for two days or a month or a year, the Israelites would remain in camp and not set out; but when it lifted, they would set out.
At the Lord's command they encamped, and at the Lord's command they set out. They obeyed the Lord's order, in accordance with his command through Moses.
立起帳幕的那日，有雲彩遮蓋帳幕，就是法櫃的帳幕；從晚上到早晨，雲彩在其上，形狀如火。
常是這樣，雲彩遮蓋帳幕，夜間形狀如火。
雲彩幾時從帳幕收上去，以色列人就幾時起行；雲彩在那裡停住，以色列人就在那裡安營。
以色列人遵耶和華的吩咐起行，也遵耶和華的吩咐安營。雲彩在帳幕上停住幾時，他們就住營幾時。
雲彩在帳幕上停留許多日子，以色列人就守耶和華所吩咐的不起行。
有時雲彩在帳幕上幾天，他們就照耶和華的吩咐住營，也照耶和華的吩咐起行。
有時從晚上到早晨，有這雲彩在帳幕上；早晨雲彩收上去，他們就起行。有時晝夜雲彩停在帳幕上，收上去的時候，他們就起行。
雲彩停留在帳幕上，無論是兩天，是一月，是一年，以色列人就住營不起行；但雲彩收上去，他們就起行。
他們遵耶和華的吩咐安營，也遵耶和華的吩咐起行。他們守耶和華所吩咐的，都是憑耶和華吩咐摩西的。
詩篇 127:3
- 5
Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him.
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one's youth.
Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court.
兒女是耶和華所賜的產業；所懷的胎是他所給的賞賜。
少年時所生的兒女好像勇士手中的箭。
箭袋充滿的人便為有福；他們在城門口和仇敵說話的時候，必不至於羞愧。
傳道書 12:13
- 14
Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind.
For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.
這些事都已聽見了，總意就是：敬畏神，謹守他的誡命，這是人所當盡的本分（或作：這是眾人的本分）。
因為人所做的事，連一切隱藏的事，無論是善是惡，神都必審問。
以西結書 18:20
The one who sins is the one who will die. The child will not share the guilt of the parent, nor will the parent share the guilt of the child. The righteousness of the righteous will be credited to them, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against them.
惟有犯罪的，他必死亡。兒子必不擔當父親的罪孽，父親也不擔當兒子的罪孽。義人的善果必歸自己，惡人的惡報也必歸自己。
但以理書 1:8
But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way.
但以理卻立志不以王的膳和王所飲的酒玷污自己，所以求太監長容他不玷污自己。
馬太福音 5:21
- 26
"You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 'You shall not murder, ote style="f" caller="+"> 5:21 Exodus 20:13 and anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.'
But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister 5:22Some manuscripts brother or sister without cause will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, 'Raca,'5:22An Aramaic term of contempt is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, 'You fool!' will be in danger of the fire of hell.
"Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has something against you,
leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to them; then come and offer your gift.
"Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still together on the way, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison.
Truly I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.
「你們聽見有吩咐古人的話，說：『不可殺人』；又說：『凡殺人的難免受審判。』
只是我告訴你們：凡（有古卷在凡字下加：無緣無故地）向弟兄動怒的，難免受審判；凡罵弟兄是拉加的，難免公會的審斷；凡罵弟兄是魔利的，難免地獄的火。
所以，你在祭壇上獻禮物的時候，若想起弟兄向你懷怨，
就把禮物留在壇前，先去同弟兄和好，然後來獻禮物。
你同告你的對頭還在路上，就趕緊與他和息，恐怕他把你送給審判官，審判官交付衙役，你就下在監裡了。
我實在告訴你，若有一文錢沒有還清，你斷不能從那裡出來。」
馬太福音 7:3
- 5
"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?
How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?
You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
為什麼看見你弟兄眼中有刺，卻不想自己眼中有梁木呢？
你自己眼中有梁木，怎能對你弟兄說：『容我去掉你眼中的刺』呢？
你這假冒為善的人！先去掉自己眼中的梁木，然後才能看得清楚，去掉你弟兄眼中的刺。
羅馬書 3:23
- 25
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood-to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished-
因為世人都犯了罪，虧缺了神的榮耀；
如今卻蒙神的恩典，因基督耶穌的救贖，就白白的稱義。
神設立耶穌作挽回祭，是憑著耶穌的血，藉著人的信，要顯明神的義；因為他用忍耐的心寬容人先時所犯的罪，
以弗所書 2:10
For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
我們原是他的工作，在基督耶穌裡造成的，為要叫我們行善，就是神所預備叫我們行的。
撒母耳記下 24:12
"Go and tell David, 'This is what the Lord says: I am giving you three options. Choose one of them for me to carry out against you.' "
「你去告訴大衛，說耶和華如此說：『我有三樣災，隨你選擇一樣，我好降與你。』」
列王記上 3:25
- 28
He then gave an order: "Cut the living child in two and give half to one and half to the other."
The woman whose son was alive was deeply moved out of love for her son and said to the king, "Please, my lord, give her the living baby! Don't kill him!" But the other said, "Neither I nor you shall have him. Cut him in two!"
Then the king gave his ruling: "Give the living baby to the first woman. Do not kill him; she is his mother."
When all Israel heard the verdict the king had given, they held the king in awe, because they saw that he had wisdom from God to administer justice.
王說：「將活孩子劈成兩半，一半給那婦人，一半給這婦人。」
活孩子的母親為自己的孩子心裡急痛，就說：「求我主將活孩子給那婦人吧，萬不可殺他！」那婦人說：「這孩子也不歸我，也不歸你，把他劈了吧！」
王說：「將活孩子給這婦人，萬不可殺他；這婦人實在是他的母親。」
以色列眾人聽見王這樣判斷，就都敬畏他；因為見他心裡有神的智慧，能以斷案。
箴言 4:5
- 9
Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or turn away from them.
Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you.
The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.
Cherish her, and she will exalt you; embrace her, and she will honor you.
She will give you a garland to grace your head and present you with a glorious crown."
要得智慧，要得聰明，不可忘記，也不可偏離我口中的言語。
不可離棄智慧，智慧就護衛你；要愛他，他就保守你。
智慧為首；所以，要得智慧。在你一切所得之內必得聰明（或作：用你一切所得的去換聰明）。
高舉智慧，他就使你高陞；懷抱智慧，他就使你尊榮。
他必將華冠加在你頭上，把榮冕交給你。
箴言 6:6
- 8
Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander, no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest.
懶惰人哪，你去察看螞蟻的動作就可得智慧。
螞蟻沒有元帥，沒有官長，沒有君王，
尚且在夏天預備食物，在收割時聚斂糧食。
約珥書 3:14
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
許多許多的人在斷定谷，因為耶和華的日子臨近斷定谷。

- 39
Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me.
Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.
不背著他的十字架跟從我的，也不配作我的門徒。
得著生命的，將要失喪生命；為我失喪生命的，將要得著生命。」
路加福音 14:26
- 27
"If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters-yes, even their own life-such a person cannot be my disciple.
And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.
「人到我這裡來，若不愛我勝過愛（愛我勝過愛：原文作恨）自己的父母、妻子、兒女、弟兄、姐妹，和自己的性命，就不能作我的門徒。
凡不背著自己十字架跟從我的，也不能作我的門徒。
約翰福音 3:16
- 17
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
「神愛世人，甚至將他的獨生子賜給他們，叫一切信他的，不至滅亡，反得永生。
因為神差他的兒子降世，不是要定世人的罪（或作：審判世人；下同），乃是要叫世人因他得救。
約翰福音 6:66
- 68
From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.
"You do not want to leave too, do you?" Jesus asked the Twelve.
Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.
從此，他門徒中多有退去的，不再和他同行。
耶穌就對那十二個門徒說：「你們也要去嗎？」
西門彼得回答說：「主啊，你有永生之道，我們還歸從誰呢？
約翰福音 10:10
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
盜賊來，無非要偷竊，殺害，毀壞；我來了，是要叫羊（或作：人）得生命，並且得的更豐盛。
