於是耶穌對門徒說:若有人要跟從我,就當捨己,背起他的十字架來跟從我。人若賺得全世界,賠上自己的生命,有甚麼益處呢?人還能拿甚麼換生命呢?
Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. … What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? – Matthew 16:24, 26
論到你們,務要將那從起初所聽見的,常存在心裡。若將從起初所聽見的存在心裡,你們就必住在子裡面,也必住在父裡面。
Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you too will abide in the Son and in the Father. – 1 John 2: 24
小子們哪,你們要住在主裡面。這樣,他若顯現,我們就可以坦然無懼;當他來的時候,在他面前也不至於慚愧。
And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming. – 1 John 2: 28
親愛的弟兄阿,我們現在是 神的兒女,將來如何,還未顯明;但我們知道,主若顯現,我們必要像他、因為必得見他的真體。
Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears [Or when it appears] we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. – 1 John 3: 2
凡犯罪的,就是違背律法;違背律法就是罪。
Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. – 1 John 3: 4
凡從 神生的,就不犯罪,因 神的道(原文作種)存在他心裡;他也不能犯罪,因為他是由 神生的。
No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s [Greek his] seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. – 1 John 3: 9
我們因為愛弟兄,就曉得是已經出死入生了。沒有愛心的,仍住在死中。
We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. – 1 John 3: 14
小子們哪,我們相愛,不要只在言語和舌頭上,總要在行為和誠實上。
Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. – 1 John 3: 18
箴 言11章: 10~14節 ¦ 禱讀11:11,13節
城因正直人祝福便高舉,卻因邪惡人的口就傾覆。往來傳舌的,洩漏密事;心中誠實的,遮隱事情。
Through the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, but by the mouth of the wicked it is destroyed. …A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy person keeps a secret. – Proverbs 11:11, 13
心中乖僻的,為耶和華所憎惡;行事完全的,為祂所喜悅。
The LORD detests those whose hearts are perverse, but He delights in those whose ways are blameless. – Proverbs 11:20
好施捨的,必得豐裕;滋潤人的,必得滋潤。倚仗自己財物的,必跌倒;義人必發旺如青葉。
A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed. …Those who trust in their riches will fall, but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf. – Proverbs 11:25, 28
惡人傾覆,歸於無有;義人的家,必站得住。耕種自己田地的,必得飽食;追隨虛浮的,卻是無知。
The wicked are overthrown and are no more, but the house of the righteous stands firm. …Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies have no sense. – Proverbs 12:7, 11
愚妄人所行的,在自己眼中看為正直;惟智慧人,肯聽人的勸教。愚妄人的惱怒,立時顯露;通達人能忍辱藏羞。
The way of fools seems right to them, but the wise listen to advice. Fools show their annoyance at once, but the prudent overlook an insult. – Proverbs 12:15~16
殷勤人的手必掌權;懶惰的人必服苦。人心憂慮,屈而不伸;一句良言,使心歡樂。
Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in forced labor. Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up. – Proverbs 12:24~25
謹守口的,得保生命;大張嘴的,必致敗亡。懶惰人羨慕,卻無所得;殷勤人必得豐裕。
Those who guard their lips preserve their lives, but those who speak rashly will come to ruin. A sluggard’s appetite is never filled, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied. – Proverbs 13:3~4
驕傲只啟爭競;聽勸言的,卻有智慧。
Where there is strife, there is pride, but wisdom is found in those who take advice. – Proverbs 13:10
