The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children.
你們若順從肉體活著，必要死；若靠著聖靈治死身體的惡行，必要活著。
因為凡被神的靈引導的，都是神的兒子。

我們所領受的，並不是世上的靈，乃是從神來的靈，叫我們能知道神開恩賜給我們的事。

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。

你要除掉邪僻的口，棄絕乖謬的嘴。

冒失人的心必明白知識；結吧人的舌必說話通快。
