Delight is in the law of the Lord

Image
不从恶人的计谋,不站罪人的道路,不坐亵慢人的座位, (诗篇 1:1 和合本) 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, (Psalms 1:1 NIV) 惟喜爱耶和华的律法,昼夜思想,这人便为有福! (诗篇 1:2 和合本) but whose delight is in the law of the Lord , and who meditates on his law day and night. (Psalms 1:2 NIV) 他要像一棵树栽在溪水旁,按时候结果子,叶子也不枯干。凡他所做的尽都顺利。 (诗篇 1:3 和合本) 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. (Psalms 1:3 NIV) 恶人并不是这样,乃像糠秕被风吹散。 (诗篇 1:4 和合本) Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. (Psalms 1:4 NIV) 因此,当审判的时候、恶人必站立不住;罪人在义人的会中也是如此。 (诗篇 1:5 和合本) Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. (Psalms 1:5 NIV) 因为耶和华知道义人的道路;恶人的道路却必灭亡。 (诗篇 1:6 和合本) For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction. (Psalms 1:6 NIV) Photo

作执事的,也是如此:必须端庄,不一口两舌,不好喝酒,不贪不义之财; (提摩太前书 3:8 和合本) In the same way, deacons are to be worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine, and not pursuing dishonest gain.

(1 Timothy 3:9 NIV) 这等人也要先受试验,若没有可责之处,然后叫他们作执事。 (提摩太前书 3:10 和合本) They must first be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons.

Where are you?

天起了凉风,耶和华 神在园中行走。那人和他妻子听见 神的声音,就藏在园里的树木中,躲避耶和华 神的面。 (创世记 3:8 和合本) Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. (Genesis 3:8 NIV) 耶和华 神呼唤那人,对他说:"你在哪里?" (创世记 3:9 和合本) But the Lord God called to the man, "Where are you?" (Genesis 3:9 NIV) 他说:"我在园中听见你的声音,我就害怕;因为我赤身露体,我便藏了。" (创世记 3:10 和合本) He answered, "I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid."

(Numbers 11:4 NIV) 我们记得,在埃及的时候不花钱就吃鱼,也记得有黄瓜、西瓜、韭菜、葱、蒜。 (民数记 11:5 和合本) We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost—also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic. (Numbers 11:5 NIV) 现在我们的心血枯竭了,除这吗哪以外,在我们眼前并没有别的东西。" (民数记 11:6 和合本) But now we have lost our appetite; we never see anything but this manna!"
