詩篇 89-90
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
永遠配受稱頌的上帝
以斯拉人以探的訓誨詩。
89 我要永遠稱頌耶和華的慈愛！
我的口要傳揚你的信實直到萬代。
2 我要讓人知道：
你的慈愛存到永遠，
你的信實與天同存。
3 你曾說：
「我與我所揀選的人立了約，
向我的僕人大衛起了誓，
4 『我要使你的後裔永遠坐在寶座上，世代為王。』」（細拉）
5 耶和華啊，
諸天要頌揚你的奇妙，
眾聖者要讚美你的信實。
6 天上有誰能與耶和華相比，
眾天使中誰能像祂？
7 祂在眾聖者的會中大受敬畏，
祂的威嚴無與倫比。
8 萬軍之上帝耶和華啊，
誰能像你能力偉大，信實無比？
9 你掌管洶湧的大海，
平息驚濤駭浪。
10 你擊碎海怪[a]，
以大能的臂膀驅散仇敵。
11 天地都屬於你，
世界和其中的一切都是你造的。
12 你創造了南方和北方，
他泊山和黑門山都向你歡呼。
13 你有大能的臂膀，
雙手充滿力量。
14 你的寶座以公平和正義為根基，
你以慈愛和信實為先鋒。
15 耶和華啊，
懂得向你歡呼的人有福了，
他們走在你的榮光之中。
16 他們因你的名終日歡欣，
因你的公義而雀躍。
17 你是他們的力量和榮耀，
你的恩惠使我們充滿力量。
18 耶和華賜下保護我們的盾牌，
我們的王屬於以色列的聖者。
19 你曾在異象中對你忠心的子民說：
「我已把力量賜給一位勇士，
已擢升我在民中揀選的人。
20 我找到了我的僕人大衛，
用我的聖油膏立他。
21 我的手必扶持他，
我的臂膀必加給他力量。
22 仇敵勝不過他，
惡人不能欺壓他。
23 我要當著他的面擊垮他的敵人，
打倒恨他的人。
24 我要以信實和慈愛待他，
他必因我的名而充滿力量。
25 我要使他左手掌管大海，
右手統治江河。
26 他要向我高呼，
『你是我的父親，我的上帝，
拯救我的磐石。』
27 我要立他為我的長子，
使他做天下至尊的君王。
28 我要永遠用慈愛待他，
我與他立的約永不更改。
29 我要使他的後裔永無窮盡，
讓他的王位與天同存。
30 如果他的後代背棄我的律法，
不遵行我的典章，
31 觸犯我的律例，
不守我的誡命，
32 我就會因他們的罪用杖懲罰他們，
用鞭子責打他們。
33 但我不會收回我的慈愛，
也不會背棄我的信實。
34 我必不毀約，也不食言。
35 因我曾憑自己的聖潔向大衛起誓，
我絕無謊言。
36 他的後裔必永無窮盡，
他的王位必在我面前如日長存，
37 又如天上亙古不變的月亮，
永遠堅立。」（細拉）
38 如今，你對你所膏立的王大發怒氣，丟棄了他。
39 你廢棄與他所立的約，
把他的冠冕扔在塵土中。
40 你攻破了他的城牆，
使他的堅壘淪為廢墟。
41 路人都趁機劫掠他的財物，
鄰居都嘲笑他。
42 你助長了他敵人的勢力，
使敵人洋洋得意。
43 你使他的刀劍失去鋒芒，
你使他敗退沙場。
44 你使他的威榮盡失，
王位傾覆。
45 你使他未老先衰，
滿面羞愧。（細拉）
46 耶和華啊，
你隱藏自己要到何時呢？
要到永遠嗎？
你的怒火要燒到何時呢？
47 願你顧念我的生命何其短暫！
你創造的世人何其虛幻！
48 誰能長生不死？
誰能救自己脫離死亡的權勢呢？（細拉）
49 主啊，你從前憑自己的信實向大衛應許的慈愛在哪裡呢？
50 主啊，求你顧念你僕人——我所受的羞辱，
我心中如何忍受列國的嘲笑。
51 耶和華啊，
你的仇敵嘲笑你所膏立的王，
他們嘲笑他的一舉一動。
52 耶和華永遠當受稱頌。
阿們！阿們！
卷四：詩篇90—106
上帝與世人
上帝的僕人摩西的祈禱。
90 主啊，
你是我們世世代代的居所。
2 群山尚未誕生，
大地和世界還未形成，
從亙古到永遠，你是上帝。
3 你叫人歸回塵土，
說：「世人啊，歸回塵土吧。」
4 在你眼中，
千年如一日，又如夜裡的一更。
5 你像急流一般把世人沖走，
叫他們如夢消逝。
他們像清晨的嫩草，
6 清晨還生機盎然，
傍晚就凋謝枯萎。
7 你的怒氣使我們滅亡，
你的憤怒使我們戰抖。
8 你知道我們的罪惡，
對我們隱秘的罪瞭若指掌。
9 我們活在你的烈怒之下，
一生就像一聲歎息飛逝而去。
10 我們一生七十歲，
強壯的可活八十歲，
但人生最美好的時光也充滿勞苦和愁煩，
生命轉瞬即逝，
我們便如飛而去。
11 誰明白你憤怒的威力？
有誰因為明白你的烈怒而對你心存敬畏呢？
12 求你教導我們明白人生有限，
使我們做有智慧的人。
13 耶和華啊，我還要苦候多久呢？
求你憐憫你的僕人。
14 求你在清晨以慈愛來滿足我們，
使我們一生歡喜歌唱。
15 你使我們先前經歷了多少苦難和不幸的歲月，
求你也賜給我們多少歡樂的歲月。
16 求你讓僕人們看見你的作為，
讓我們的後代看見你的威榮。
17 願主——我們的上帝恩待我們，
使我們所做的亨通，
使我們所做的亨通。

Psalm 89-90
King James Version
89 I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens.
3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,
4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah.
5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O Lord: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.
6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord?
7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.
8 O Lord God of hosts, who is a strong Lord like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?
9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.
10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.
11 The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
12 The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.
13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.
14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance.
16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18 For the Lord is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
21 With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.
22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.
24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
35 Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.
37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.
38 But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.
39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.
41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.
42 Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
43 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.
44 Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. Selah.
46 How long, Lord? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?
47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?
48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.
49 Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest unto David in thy truth?
50 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;
51 Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O Lord; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
52 Blessed be the Lord for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
90 Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
13 Return, O Lord, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
14 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.
16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.
17 And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
羅馬書 14
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
體恤弱者
14 你們要接納信心軟弱的弟兄姊妹，不要因為看法不同便彼此批評。 2 有人相信什麼都可以吃，但信心軟弱的人只吃素菜。 3 吃的人不可輕看不吃的人，不吃的人也不可批評吃的人，因為兩者都蒙上帝接納。 4 你是誰，竟然批評別人的僕人？他做得是否合宜，自然有他的主人負責。他必能做得合宜，因為主能使他做得合宜。
5 有人認為這日比那日好，有人認為天天都一樣，各人應該照著自己的信念拿定主意。 6 守日子的人是為主而守，吃的人是為主而吃，因為他感謝上帝；不吃的人是為主不吃，他也同樣感謝上帝。 7 因為我們沒有人為自己活，也沒有人為自己死。 8 我們活是為主而活，死是為主而死。因此，我們無論生死都是屬主的人。 9 正是為這個緣故，基督死了，又復活了，好做死人和活人的主。
10 那麼，你為什麼論斷弟兄姊妹呢？為什麼輕視弟兄姊妹呢？將來我們都要一同站在上帝的審判臺前。 11 聖經上說：「主說，『我憑我的永恆起誓，萬膝必向我跪拜，萬口必稱頌上帝。』」 12 這樣看來，我們各人都要在上帝面前陳明自己一切的事。
不要使人犯罪
13 所以，我們不可再互相論斷，要留心自己的言行，不要絆倒弟兄姊妹。 14 我知道並靠著主耶穌深信，沒有什麼是不潔淨的。但若有人以為某物不潔淨，那物對他來說就不潔淨。 15 如果你吃的東西令弟兄姊妹不安，你就不是憑愛心行事。你不可因為一點食物而損害基督捨命救贖的人。 16 所以，不要讓你們認為好的事被別人詬病。 17 因為上帝的國不是關乎吃什麼喝什麼，而是關乎公義、平安和聖靈所賜的喜樂。 18 以這樣的態度事奉基督的人才會得到上帝的喜悅和大家的稱讚。
19 所以，我們要努力追求和睦，彼此造就。 20 不可因食物的問題而破壞上帝的工作。所有的食物固然都是潔淨的，但人若因所吃的食物絆倒別人，就有罪了。 21 無論是吃肉、喝酒還是做任何別的事，如果會絆倒別人，就應該一概不做。 22 你有信心認為可以做的，只要你和上帝知道就可以了。人如果在自己認為可以做的事上問心無愧，就有福了。 23 人如果心裡疑惑，卻仍然吃，就有罪了，因為他不是憑信心吃。凡不憑信心去做的，就是犯罪。
Romans 14
King James Version
14 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.
3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.
8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.
9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.
14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.
16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of:
17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.
19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.
20 For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.
21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.
22 Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.
23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
