耶利米書 17:7 - 8 "But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit."
倚靠耶和華、以耶和華為可靠的，那人有福了！他必像樹栽於水旁，在河邊扎根，炎熱來到，並不懼怕，葉子仍必青翠，在乾旱之年毫無掛慮，而且結果不止。

歌羅西書 2:6 - 7 So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.
你們既然接受了主基督耶穌，就當遵他而行，在他裡面生根建造，信心堅固，正如你們所領的教訓，感謝的心也更增長了。

詩篇 1:3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither- whatever they do prospers.
他要像一棵樹栽在溪水旁，按時候結果子，葉子也不枯乾。凡他所做的盡都順利。

馬可福音 4:17 But since they have no root, they last only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.
但他心裡沒有根，不過是暫時的，及至為道遭了患難，或是受了逼迫，立刻就跌倒了。

以弗所書 3:16 - 19 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.
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。

希伯來書 12:15 See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.
又要謹慎，恐怕有人失了神的恩；恐怕有毒根生出來擾亂你們，因此叫眾人沾染污穢；

馬太福音 13:6 But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.
日頭出來一曬，因為沒有根，就枯乾了；
