神啊,我們在你的殿中想念你的慈愛。
詩篇 48:9 (和合本)
O God, we meditate on your unfailing love as we worship in your Temple.
Psalms 48:9 NLT
耶和華就為自己的地發熱心,憐恤他的百姓。
耶和華應允他的百姓說:我必賜給你們五穀、新酒,和油,使你們飽足;我也不再使你們受列國的羞辱;
卻要使北方來的軍隊遠離你們,將他們趕到乾旱荒廢之地:前隊趕入東海,後隊趕入西海;因為他們所行的大惡(原文作事),臭氣上升,腥味騰空。
約珥書 2:18-20 (和合本)
錫安的民哪,你們要快樂,為耶和華你們的神歡喜;因他賜給你們合宜的秋雨,為你們降下甘霖,就是秋雨、春雨,和先前一樣。
約珥書 2:23 (和合本)
你們必多吃而得飽足,就讚美為你們行奇妙事之耶和華你們神的名。我的百姓必永遠不至羞愧。
約珥書 2:26 (和合本)
Then the Lord will pity his people and jealously guard the honor of his land. The Lord will reply, “Look! I am sending you grain and new wine and olive oil, enough to satisfy your needs. You will no longer be an object of mockery among the surrounding nations. I will drive away these armies from the north. I will send them into the parched wastelands. Those in the front will be driven into the Dead Sea, and those at the rear into the Mediterranean. The stench of their rotting bodies will rise over the land.” Surely the Lord has done great things! Rejoice, you people of Jerusalem! Rejoice in the Lord your God! For the rain he sends demonstrates his faithfulness. Once more the autumn rains will come, as well as the rains of spring. Once again you will have all the food you want, and you will praise the Lord your God, who does these miracles for you. Never again will my people be disgraced.
Joel 2:18-20, 23, 26 NLT
然而,在完全的人中,我們也講智慧。但不是這世上的智慧,也不是這世上有權有位、將要敗亡之人的智慧。
我們講的,乃是從前所隱藏、神奧秘的智慧,就是神在萬世以前預定使我們得榮耀的。
這智慧世上有權有位的人沒有一個知道的、他們若知道,就不把榮耀的主釘在十字架上了。
如經上所記:神為愛他的人所預備的是眼睛未曾看見,耳朵未曾聽見,人心也未曾想到的。
只有神藉著聖靈向我們顯明了,因為聖靈參透萬事,就是神深奧的事也參透了。
除了在人裡頭的靈,誰知道人的事;像這樣,除了神的靈,也沒有人知道神的事。
哥林多前書 2:6-11 (和合本)
Yet when I am among mature believers, I do speak with words of wisdom, but not the kind of wisdom that belongs to this world or to the rulers of this world, who are soon forgotten. No, the wisdom we speak of is the mystery of God —his plan that was previously hidden, even though he made it for our ultimate glory before the world began. But the rulers of this world have not understood it; if they had, they would not have crucified our glorious Lord. That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.” But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For his Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets. No one can know a person’s thoughts except that person’s own spirit, and no one can know God’s thoughts except God’s own Spirit.
1 Corinthians 2:6-11 NLT
我們總想靠自己努力去得著人生的智慧,盼望因此活出得勝的生活。然而,上帝卻說:不要這麼累了,我給你的富足有餘,別再靠自己努力去亂抓世界上的廢物!
