以賽亞書 51:7
"Hear me, you who know what is right, you people who have taken my instruction to heart: Do not fear the reproach of mere mortals or be terrified by their insults.
知道公義、將我訓誨存在心中的民,要聽我言!不要怕人的辱罵,也不要因人的毀謗驚惶。
詩篇 56:3
- 4
When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise- in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?
我懼怕的時候要倚靠你。
我倚靠神,我要讚美他的話;我倚靠神,必不懼怕。血氣之輩能把我怎麼樣呢?
馬太福音 10:28
Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
那殺身體,不能殺靈魂的,不要怕他們;惟有能把身體和靈魂都滅在地獄裡的,正要怕他。
以賽亞書 8:12
- 13
"Do not call conspiracy everything this people calls a conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it.
The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread.
「這百姓說同謀背叛,你們不要說同謀背叛。他們所怕的,你們不要怕,也不要畏懼。
但要尊萬軍之耶和華為聖,以他為你們所當怕的,所當畏懼的。
以賽亞書 51:12
- 13
"I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you that you fear mere mortals, human beings who are but grass,
that you forget the Lord your Maker, who stretches out the heavens and who lays the foundations of the earth, that you live in constant terror every day because of the wrath of the oppressor, who is bent on destruction? For where is the wrath of the oppressor?
惟有我,是安慰你們的。你是誰,竟怕那必死的人?怕那要變如草的世人?
卻忘記鋪張諸天、立定地基、創造你的耶和華?又因欺壓者圖謀毀滅要發的暴怒,整天害怕,其實那欺壓者的暴怒在那裡呢?
詩篇 76:10
Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise, and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.
人的忿怒要成全你的榮美;人的餘怒,你要禁止。
