Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
For the LORD is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations.
当称谢进入祂的门；当赞美进入祂的院。当感谢祂，称颂祂的名！
因为耶和华本为善。祂的慈爱存到永远；祂的信实直到万代。
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.
如今那些属于基督耶稣里的人，就不被定罪了。
So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God by believing in Christ.
This is because all of you who were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. You have put him on as if he were your clothes.
籍着相信基督耶稣，你们都成为上帝的儿女。
所有在洗礼中跟基督联合的人，都穿上了基督，就像穿上新衣服一样。
Bless the LORD, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
我身我心啊，要赞美上帝，我要全心全意赞颂祂的圣名！
So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise.
Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.
Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.
所以，你们的生活要谨慎，不要像愚昧人，倒要像智慧人；
要在这邪恶的日子把握每一个机会；
不要草率行事，要明白主耶稣想要你们做什么。
But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.
但那信靠上帝的必重新得力，他们要如鹰展翅高飞；他们奔跑不会疲倦，行走不会昏累。
So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ.
可见，信心是从聆听来的，是从聆听救世主的好消息来的。
This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.
这是真正的爱--不是我们爱上帝，而是上帝爱我们，差遣祂的儿子成为祭物，除去我们的罪。
The people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.
唯独认识神的子民必定刚强，成就丰功伟绩。
We are receiving a kingdom that can’t be shaken. So let us be thankful. Then we can worship God in a way that pleases him. Let us worship him with deep respect and wonder.
既然我们得到的是一个不能被撼动的国，就让我们怀着虔诚敬畏的心敬拜上帝，向祂感恩，得祂喜悦。
And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this down: Blessed are those who die in the Lord from now on. Yes, says the Spirit, they are blessed indeed, for they will rest from their hard work; for their good deeds follow them!”
我听见天上有声音说：“把这话写下来：从今以后，在主里死去的人有福了。” 圣灵说：“是的，他们的确有福，他们将会得享安息，不再劳苦。他们的善行必伴随着他们！”
Let us keep looking to Jesus. He is the one who started this journey of faith. And he is the one who completes the journey of faith. He paid no attention to the shame of the cross. He suffered there because of the joy he was looking forward to. Then he sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
让我们单单望向耶稣，祂开启了我们的信心，也成全了我们的信心。祂不在意十字架上的羞辱，为着将要到来的喜乐忍受了苦难。现在祂坐在全能上帝的宝座旁边那尊贵的座位上。
Faith is being sure of what we hope for. It is being sure of what we do not see.
信心是确信所望之事定会实现，是确信未见之事确实存在。
Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God. He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises. And because of Abraham’s faith, God counted him as righteous.
亚伯拉罕相信上帝的应许，从未动摇。事实上，他的信心越来越坚定，更因此荣耀了上帝。他完全相信，上帝有能力实现祂所应许的一切。因着亚伯拉罕的信心，上帝把他算作义人。
So the promise is received by faith. It is given as a free gift. And we are all certain to receive it, whether or not we live according to the law of Moses, if we have faith like Abraham’s. For Abraham is the father of all who believe. That is what the Scriptures mean when God told him, “I have made you the father of many nations.”
所以应许是凭着信心领受的，是无偿赐下的恩典。不论我们是否遵照摩西的律法生活，只要我们有亚伯拉罕那样的信心，就必定都能得着应许，因为亚伯拉罕是所有信徒的父亲。这就是圣经上那句话的意思——上帝对亚伯拉罕说：“我已经立你作多国的父。”
Clearly, God’s promise to give the whole earth to Abraham and his descendants was based not on his obedience to God’s law, but on a right relationship with God that comes by faith.
显然，上帝应许亚伯拉罕把全地赐给他和他的子孙，不是因为他遵守了上帝的律法，而是因为他靠着信心而跟上帝有了正确的关系。
Well then, if we emphasize faith, does this mean that we can forget about the law? Of course not! In fact, only when we have faith do we truly fulfill the law.
那么，如果我们强调信心，是否意味着我们就可以轻忽律法呢？当然不可以！事实上，只有当我们有信心时，才真正满足了律法的要求。
After all, is God the God of the Jews only? Isn’t he also the God of the Gentiles? Of course he is.
There is only one God, and he makes people right with himself only by faith, whether they are Jews or Gentiles.
说到底，难道上帝只是犹太人的上帝吗？祂不也是外族人的上帝吗？祂当然是。
上帝只有一位；不论是犹太人还是外族人，上帝都让他们单单靠着信心跟祂恢复正确的关系。
Can we boast, then, that we have done anything to be accepted by God? No, because our acquittal is not based on obeying the law. It is based on faith.
So we are made right with God through faith and not by obeying the law.
这样，我们还能夸口，说自己是因为做了什么事而蒙上帝接纳吗？不能，我们被宣告无罪不是基于遵守律法，而是基于信心。
所以，我们是藉着信心跟上帝恢复正确的关系，而不是藉着遵守律法。
Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,” says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, “I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test!”
“你们要把所有的什一奉献送入仓库，好让我的圣殿中有足够的粮食。” 万军之耶和华说：“如果你们这样做，我就要为你们打开天上的窗户。我要将福分倾倒下来，这福分大的你们不够地方容纳！只管试试看！试试我吧！”
For we don’t live for ourselves or die for ourselves.
If we live, it’s to honor the Lord. And if we die, it’s to honor the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
我们或生或死，都不是为了我们自己。
我们活着，是为了尊崇主；我们死去，也是为了尊崇主。总之，无论是生是死，我们都是属于主的。
And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.
所以，亲爱的弟兄姊妹，我劝你们，因着上帝为你们所做的一切，你们要把自己的身体献给上帝，作为圣洁的活祭，就是上帝所悦纳的祭。这是真正敬拜祂的方式。
As the Scriptures tell us, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.”
Jew and Gentile are the same in this respect. They have the same Lord, who gives generously to all who call on him.
For “Everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved.”
正如圣经告诉我们：“凡信靠祂的人，都必不至羞愧。”
犹太人和外族人在这方面是一样的。他们有同一位主，祂丰厚地赏赐所有呼求祂的人。
因为 “所有呼求上帝之名的都要得救。”
If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.
只要你公开地承认耶稣是主，心里相信上帝使耶稣从死人中复活，就必能得救。
因为你心里相信，就跟上帝恢复了正确的关系；你公开地承认，就能得救。
So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ.
可见，信心是从聆听来的，是从聆听救世主的好消息来的。
If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
如果我能讲一切地上的语言以及天使的语言，却不懂得去爱其他人，那我的演讲只不过是空洞的鸣锣和响钹罢了。
He did this so that the just requirement of the law would be fully satisfied for us, who no longer follow our sinful nature but instead follow the Spirit.
祂如此行，是为了能够替我们去满足律法对义人的要求，我们不再跟从肉体的邪恶本性，而是跟从圣灵的引导。
How joyful are those who fear the LORD— all who follow his ways!
You will enjoy the fruit of your labor. How joyful and prosperous you will be!
Your wife will be like a fruitful grapevine, flourishing within your home. Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees as they sit around your table.
That is the LORD’s blessing for those who fear him.
敬畏上帝——遵行祂的道的人，是多么有福！
你要享受自己劳碌的成果，你必得福，大大兴旺！
你的妻子在家中，就像果实累累的葡萄树；你的儿女围坐在桌旁，就像茁壮的小橄榄树。
看哪，敬畏上帝的人，必这样蒙福。
And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
一切就绪后，上帝就对诺亚说：“你和你的全家都要进入方舟；因为在我看来，在这世代中，我见你在我面前是义人。”
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
教养孩子走当行的路，他们长大后也不会偏离。
