耶利米書 17:9
The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
人心比萬物都詭詐，壞到極處，誰能識透呢？
羅馬書 3:10
- 18
As it is written: "There is no one righteous, not even one;
there is no one who understands; there is no one who seeks God.
All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one."
"Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit." "The poison of vipers is on their lips."
"Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness."
"Their feet are swift to shed blood;
ruin and misery mark their ways,
and the way of peace they do not know."
"There is no fear of God before their eyes."
就如經上所記：沒有義人，連一個也沒有。
沒有明白的；沒有尋求神的；
都是偏離正路，一同變為無用。沒有行善的，連一個也沒有。
他們的喉嚨是敞開的墳墓；他們用舌頭弄詭詐，嘴唇裡有虺蛇的毒氣，
滿口是咒罵苦毒。
殺人流血，他們的腳飛跑，
所經過的路便行殘害暴虐的事。
平安的路，他們未曾知道；
他們眼中不怕神。
雅各書 1:22
- 25
Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror
and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.
But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it-not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it-they will be blessed in what they do.
只是你們要行道，不要單單聽道，自己欺哄自己。
因為聽道而不行道的，就像人對著鏡子看自己本來的面目，
看見，走後，隨即忘了他的相貌如何。
惟有詳細察看那全備，使人自由之律法的，並且時常如此，這人既不是聽了就忘，乃是實在行出來，就在他所行的事上必然得福。
詩篇 51:5
Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
我是在罪孽裡生的，在我母親懷胎的時候就有了罪。
馬可福音 7:21
For it is from within, out of a person's heart, that evil thoughts come-sexual immorality, theft, murder,
因為從裡面，就是從人心裡，發出惡念、苟合、
約翰一書 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
我們若認自己的罪，神是信實的，是公義的，必要赦免我們的罪，洗淨我們一切的不義。
詩篇 118:8
It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in humans.
投靠耶和華，強似倚賴人；
羅馬書 1:21
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.
因為，他們雖然知道神，卻不當作神榮耀他，也不感謝他。他們的思念變為虛妄，無知的心就昏暗了。
箴言 19:21
Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.
人心多有計謀；惟有耶和華的籌算才能立定。
馬太福音 7:13
- 14
"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
「你們要進窄門。因為引到滅亡，那門是寬的，路是大的，進去的人也多；
引到永生，那門是窄的，路是小的，找著的人也少。」
