詩篇 1:1
- 6
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,
but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.
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.
Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
不從惡人的計謀，不站罪人的道路，不坐褻慢人的座位，
惟喜愛耶和華的律法，晝夜思想，這人便為有福！
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。
惡人並不是這樣，乃像糠秕被風吹散。
因此，當審判的時候惡人必站立不住；罪人在義人的會中也是如此。
因為耶和華知道義人的道路；惡人的道路卻必滅亡。
箴言 13:17
A wicked messenger falls into trouble, but a trustworthy envoy brings healing.

箴言 18:20
- 21
From the fruit of their mouth a person's stomach is filled; with the harvest of their lips they are satisfied.
The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
人口中所結的果子，必充滿肚腹；他嘴所出的，必使他飽足。
生死在舌頭的權下，喜愛他的，必吃他所結的果子。

We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you.
We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us.
As a fair exchange-I speak as to my children-open wide your hearts also.
哥林多人哪，我們向你們，口是張開的，心是寬宏的。
你們狹窄，原不在乎我們，是在乎自己的心腸狹窄。
你們也要照樣用寬宏的心報答我。我這話正像對自己的孩子說的。
申命記 4:32
Ask now about the former days, long before your time, from the day God created human beings on the earth; ask from one end of the heavens to the other. Has anything so great as this ever happened, or has anything like it ever been heard of?
「你且考察在你以前的世代，自神造人在世以來，從天這邊到天那邊，曾有何民聽見神在火中說話的聲音，像你聽見還能存活呢？
