羅馬書 5:8
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
惟有基督在我們還作罪人的時候為我們死，神的愛就在此向我們顯明了。
約翰一書 4:8
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
沒有愛心的，就不認識神，因為神就是愛。
約翰一書 4:18
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
愛裡沒有懼怕；愛既完全，就把懼怕除去。因為懼怕裡含著刑罰，懼怕的人在愛裡未得完全。
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。

馬太福音 5:43
- 48
"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor ote style="f" caller="+"> 5:43 Lev. 19:18 and hate your enemy.'
But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that?
And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?
Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
「你們聽見有話說：『當愛你的鄰舍，恨你的仇敵。』
只是我告訴你們，要愛你們的仇敵，為那逼迫你們的禱告。
這樣就可以作你們天父的兒子；因為他叫日頭照好人，也照歹人；降雨給義人，也給不義的人。
你們若單愛那愛你們的人，有什麼賞賜呢？就是稅吏不也是這樣行嗎？
你們若單請你弟兄的安，比人有什麼長處呢？就是外邦人不也是這樣行嗎？
所以，你們要完全，像你們的天父完全一樣。」
約翰一書 4:16
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.
神愛我們的心，我們也知道也信。神就是愛；住在愛裡面的，就是住在神裡面，神也住在他裡面。
路加福音 6:27
"But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
「只是我告訴你們這聽道的人，你們的仇敵，要愛他！恨你們的，要待他好！
羅馬書 8:35
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?
誰能使我們與基督的愛隔絕呢？難道是患難嗎？是困苦嗎？是逼迫嗎？是飢餓嗎？是赤身露體嗎？是危險嗎？是刀劍嗎？
彼得前書 4:8
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

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.

- 5
But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared,
he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,
但到了神我們救主的恩慈和他向人所施的慈愛顯明的時候，
他便救了我們，並不是因我們自己所行的義，乃是照他的憐憫，藉著重生的洗和聖靈的更新。
約翰一書 4:7
- 11
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
親愛的弟兄啊，我們應當彼此相愛，因為愛是從神來的。凡有愛心的，都是由神而生，並且認識神。
沒有愛心的，就不認識神，因為神就是愛。
神差他獨生子到世間來，使我們藉著他得生，神愛我們的心在此就顯明了。
不是我們愛神，乃是神愛我們，差他的兒子為我們的罪作了挽回祭，這就是愛了。
親愛的弟兄啊，神既是這樣愛我們，我們也當彼此相愛。
約翰一書 4:9

愛弟兄，要彼此親熱；恭敬人，要彼此推讓。

羅馬書 3:23
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
因為世人都犯了罪，虧缺了神的榮耀；

約翰一書 3:1
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
你看父賜給我們是何等的慈愛，使我們得稱為神的兒女；我們也真是他的兒女。世人所以不認識我們，是因未曾認識他。

Jesus replied, "Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.

申命記 7:7
- 8
The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples.
But it was because the Lord loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
「耶和華專愛你們，揀選你們，並非因你們的人數多於別民，原來你們的人數在萬民中是最少的。
只因耶和華愛你們，又因要守他向你們列祖所起的誓，就用大能的手領你們出來，從為奴之家救贖你們脫離埃及王法老的手。
馬太福音 10:29
- 31
Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father's care.
And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
兩個麻雀不是賣一分銀子嗎？若是你們的父不許，一個也不能掉在地上；
就是你們的頭髮也都被數過了。
所以，不要懼怕，你們比許多麻雀還貴重！」

- 19
from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name.
I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being,
so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,
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.
（天上地上的各﹝或作：全家﹞，都是從他得名）
求他按著他豐盛的榮耀，藉著他的靈，叫你們心裡的力量剛強起來，
使基督因你們的信，住在你們心裡，叫你們的愛心有根有基，
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。

- 18
This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.
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?
Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.
主為我們捨命，我們從此就知道何為愛；我們也當為弟兄捨命。
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？
小子們哪，我們相愛，不要只在言語和舌頭上，總要在行為和誠實上。
路得記 1:16

路得說：「不要催我回去不跟隨你。你往那裡去，我也往那裡去；你在那裡住宿，我也在那裡住宿；你的國就是我的國，你的神就是我的神。

父親卻吩咐僕人說：『把那上好的袍子快拿出來給他穿；把戒指戴在他指頭上；把鞋穿在他腳上；
