I will stand at my watch and station myself on the ramparts; I will look to see what he will say to me, and what answer I am to give to this complaint.
Then the Lord replied: "Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it.
For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.
我要站在守望所，立在望樓上觀看，看耶和華對我說什麼話，我可用什麼話向他訴冤（向他訴冤：或作回答所疑問的）。
他對我說：將這默示明明的寫在版上，使讀的人容易讀（或作：隨跑隨讀）。
因為這默示有一定的日期，快要應驗，並不虛謊。雖然遲延，還要等候；因為必然臨到，不再遲延。

Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart.
For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
For, "All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall,
but the word of the Lord endures forever." And this is the word that was preached to you.
你們既因順從真理，潔淨了自己的心，以致愛弟兄沒有虛假，就當從心裡（從心裡：有古卷是從清潔的心）彼此切實相愛。
你們蒙了重生，不是由於能壞的種子，乃是由於不能壞的種子，是藉著神活潑常存的道。
因為凡有血氣的，盡都如草；他的美榮都像草上的花。草必枯乾，花必凋謝；
惟有主的道是永存的。所傳給你們的福音就是這道。
約翰福音 5:6

- 13
"At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
Five of them were foolish and five were wise.
The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them.
The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps.
The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
"At midnight the cry rang out: 'Here's the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!'
"Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.
The foolish ones said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.'
" 'No,' they replied, 'there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.'
"But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.
"Later the others also came. 'Lord, Lord,' they said, 'open the door for us!'
"But he replied, 'Truly I tell you, I don't know you.'
"Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
「那時，天國好比十個童女拿著燈出去迎接新郎。
其中有五個是愚拙的，五個是聰明的。
愚拙的拿著燈，卻不預備油；
聰明的拿著燈，又預備油在器皿裡。
新郎遲延的時候，他們都打盹，睡著了。
半夜有人喊著說：『新郎來了，你們出來迎接他！』
那些童女就都起來收拾燈。
愚拙的對聰明的說：『請分點油給我們，因為我們的燈要滅了。』
聰明的回答說：『恐怕不夠你我用的；不如你們自己到賣油的那裡去買吧。』
他們去買的時候，新郎到了。那預備好了的，同他進去坐席，門就關了。
其餘的童女隨後也來了，說：『主啊，主啊，給我們開門！』
他卻回答說：『我實在告訴你們，我不認識你們。』
所以，你們要警醒；因為那日子，那時辰，你們不知道。」
歌羅西書 1:11
being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience,
照他榮耀的權能，得以在各樣的力上加力，好叫你們凡事歡歡喜喜的忍耐寬容；
加拉太書 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
我已經與基督同釘十字架，現在活著的不再是我，乃是基督在我裡面活著；並且我如今在肉身活著，是因信神的兒子而活；他是愛我，為我捨己。
約翰一書 3:2

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。
羅馬書 8:18
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
我想，現在的苦楚若比起將來要顯於我們的榮耀就不足介意了。
希伯來書 12:1
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,
我們既有這許多的見證人，如同雲彩圍著我們，就當放下各樣的重擔，脫去容易纏累我們的罪，存心忍耐，奔那擺在我們前頭的路程，
詩篇 25:5
- 9
Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.
Remember, Lord, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.
Do not remember the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you, Lord, are good.
Good and upright is the Lord; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.
求你以你的真理引導我，教訓我，因為你是救我的神。我終日等候你。
耶和華啊，求你記念你的憐憫和慈愛，因為這是亙古以來所常有的。
求你不要記念我幼年的罪愆和我的過犯；耶和華啊，求你因你的恩惠，按你的慈愛記念我。
耶和華是良善正直的，所以他必指示罪人走正路。
他必按公平引領謙卑人，將他的道教訓他們。
羅馬書 8:19
For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.
受造之物切望等候神的眾子顯出來。
