哥林多前書 4:7
For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?
使你與人不同的是誰呢?你有什麼不是領受的呢;若是領受的,為何自誇,彷彿不是領受的呢?
哥林多前書 13:1
- 13
If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
For we know in part and we prophesy in part,
but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears.
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.
For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
我若能說萬人的方言,並天使的話語,卻沒有愛,我就成了鳴的鑼,響的鈸一般。
我若有先知講道之能,也明白各樣的奧秘,各樣的知識,而且有全備的信,叫我能夠移山,卻沒有愛,我就算不得什麼。
我若將所有的賙濟窮人,又捨己身叫人焚燒,卻沒有愛,仍然與我無益。
愛是恆久忍耐,又有恩慈;愛是不嫉妒;愛是不自誇,不張狂,
不做害羞的事,不求自己的益處,不輕易發怒,不計算人的惡,
不喜歡不義,只喜歡真理;
凡事包容,凡事相信,凡事盼望,凡事忍耐。
愛是永不止息。先知講道之能終必歸於無有;說方言之能終必停止;知識也終必歸於無有。
我們現在所知道的有限,先知所講的也有限,
等那完全的來到,這有限的必歸於無有了。
我作孩子的時候,話語像孩子,心思像孩子,意念像孩子,既成了人,就把孩子的事丟棄了。
我們如今彷彿對著鏡子觀看,模糊不清(原文作如同猜謎);到那時就要面對面了。我如今所知道的有限,到那時就全知道,如同主知道我一樣。
如今常存的有信,有望,有愛這三樣,其中最大的是愛。
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。」
詩篇 25:15
My eyes are ever on the Lord, for only he will release my feet from the snare.
我的眼目時常仰望耶和華,因為他必將我的腳從網裡拉出來。
詩篇 56:2
My adversaries pursue me all day long; in their pride many are attacking me.
我的仇敵終日要把我吞了,因逞驕傲攻擊我的人甚多。
箴言 27:17
As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.
鐵磨鐵,磨出刃來;朋友相感(原文作磨朋友的臉)也是如此。
耶利米書 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
耶和華說:我知道我向你們所懷的意念是賜平安的意念,不是降災禍的意念,要叫你們末後有指望。
腓立比書 2:1
- 5
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion,
then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,
not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
所以,在基督裡若有什麼勸勉,愛心有什麼安慰,聖靈有什麼交通,心中有什麼慈悲憐憫,
你們就要意念相同,愛心相同,有一樣的心思,有一樣的意念,使我的喜樂可以滿足。
凡事不可結黨,不可貪圖虛浮的榮耀;只要存心謙卑,各人看別人比自己強。
各人不要單顧自己的事,也要顧別人的事。
你們當以基督耶穌的心為心:
帖撒羅尼迦前書 5:16
- 18
Rejoice always,
pray continually,
give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
要常常喜樂,
不住的禱告,
凡事謝恩;因為這是神在基督耶穌裡向你們所定的旨意。
詩篇 23:1
- 6
The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,
he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
(大衛的詩。)耶和華是我的牧者,我必不至缺乏。
他使我躺臥在青草地上,領我在可安歇的水邊。
他使我的靈魂甦醒,為自己的名引導我走義路。
我雖然行過死蔭的幽谷,也不怕遭害,因為你與我同在;你的杖,你的竿,都安慰我。
在我敵人面前,你為我擺設筵席;你用油膏了我的頭,使我的福杯滿溢。
我一生一世必有恩惠慈愛隨著我;我且要住在耶和華的殿中,直到永遠。
箴言 11:2
When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.
驕傲來,羞恥也來;謙遜人卻有智慧。
箴言 21:24
The proud and arrogant person-"Mocker" is his name- behaves with insolent fury.
心驕氣傲的人名叫褻慢;他行事狂妄,都出於驕傲。
傳道書 7:9
Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools.
你不要心裡急躁惱怒,因為惱怒存在愚昧人的懷中。
以弗所書 3:18
- 19
may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,
and to know this love that surpasses knowledge-that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
能以和眾聖徒一同明白基督的愛是何等長闊高深,
並知道這愛是過於人所能測度的,便叫神一切所充滿的,充滿了你們。
約翰一書 3:17
If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be that person?
凡有世上財物的,看見弟兄窮乏,卻塞住憐恤的心,愛神的心怎能存在他裡面呢?
