希伯來書 4:12
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
神的道是活潑的,是有功效的,比一切兩刃的劍更快,甚至魂與靈,骨節與骨髓,都能刺入、剖開,連心中的思念和主意都能辨明。
申命記 11:18
Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.
「你們要將我這話存在心內,留在意中,繫在手上為記號,戴在額上為經文;
羅馬書 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.
我不以福音為恥;這福音本是神的大能,要救一切相信的,先是猶太人,後是希利尼人。
雅各書 1:21
- 25
Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.
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.
所以你們要脫去一切的污穢和盈餘的邪惡,存溫柔的心領受那所栽種的道,就是能救你們靈魂的道。
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。
使徒行傳 20:32
"Now I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
如今我把你們交託神和他恩惠的道;這道能建立你們,叫你們和一切成聖的人同得基業。
詩篇 119:130
The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.
你的言語一解開就發出亮光,使愚人通達。
箴言 6:23
For this command is a lamp, this teaching is a light, and correction and instruction are the way to life,
因為誡命是燈,法則(或作:指教)是光,訓誨的責備是生命的道,
羅馬書 10:17
Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
可見信道是從聽道來的,聽道是從基督的話來的。
提摩太後書 3:15
- 16
and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
並且知道你是從小明白聖經,這聖經能使你因信基督耶穌,有得救的智慧。
聖經都是神所默示的(或作:凡神所默示的聖經),於教訓、督責、使人歸正、教導人學義都是有益的,
啟示錄 1:3
Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near.
念這書上預言的和那些聽見又遵守其中所記載的,都是有福的,因為日期近了。

這律法書不可離開你的口,總要晝夜思想,好使你謹守遵行這書上所寫的一切話。如此,你的道路就可以亨通,凡事順利。
詩篇 119:105
Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.
你的話是我腳前的燈,是我路上的光。
彼得前書 1:23
For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
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。
彼得前書 2:2
Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,
就要愛慕那純淨的靈奶,像才生的嬰孩愛慕奶一樣,叫你們因此漸長,以致得救。
約翰福音 5:39
You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me,
你們查考聖經(或作:應當查考聖經),因你們以為內中有永生;給我作見證的就是這經。
彼得後書 1:19
We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
我們並有先知更確的預言,如同燈照在暗處。你們在這預言上留意,直等到天發亮,晨星在你們心裡出現的時候,才是好的。
