雅各書第3章 |
|
1 |
|
2 原來我們在許多事上都有過失；若有人在話語上沒有過失，他就是完全人，也能勒住自己的全身。 |
|
3 看哪 |
|
4 看哪，船隻雖然甚大，又被大風催逼，只用小小的舵，就隨著掌舵的意思轉動。 |
|
5 照樣 |
|
6 舌頭就是火，在我們百體中，舌頭是個罪惡的世界，能污穢全身，也能把生命的輪子點起來，並且是從地獄裏點著的。 |
|
7 各類的走獸，飛禽，蛇類 |
|
8 唯獨舌頭沒有人能制伏，是難以駕馭的 |
|
9 我們用舌頭頌讚神 |
|
10 頌讚和咒詛從一個口裏出來。我的弟兄們，這是不應當的。 |
|
11 泉源從一個眼裏能發出甜苦兩樣的水嗎？ |
|
12 我的弟兄們，無花果樹能生橄欖嗎？葡萄樹能結無花果嗎？鹹水裏也不能發出甜水來。 |
|
13 |
|
14 你們心裏若懷著苦毒的嫉妒和紛爭，就不可自誇，也不可說謊話抵擋真理 |
|
15 這樣的智慧不是從上頭來的，乃是屬地的，屬情慾的，屬鬼魔的。 |
|
16 在何處有嫉妒、紛爭，就在何處有擾亂和各樣的壞事。 |
|
17 唯獨從上頭來的智慧，先是純潔 |
|
18 並且使人和平的，是用和平所栽種的義果。 |
JamesChapter 3 |
|
1 MY brethren, do not allow doubtful teachers among you; but know, that we are under a great judgment. |
|
2 For in many things we all stumble. Anyone who does not offend in word, this one is a perfect man, and able also to subdue his whole body. |
|
3 Behold, we put bits into the mouths of horses, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. |
|
4 Behold also the ships, great as they are, when driven by severe winds, they are turned about with a very small rudder, wherever the pilot wishes. |
|
5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. Likewise, a small fire sets ablaze the large forests. |
|
6 The tongue is a fire, and the sinful world like a forest: that very tongue, while it is among our members, can defile our whole body, and set on fire the records of our race which have rolled down from the beginning: and in the end it is consumed by fire. |
|
7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of creatures of the sea and of the land are under the subjugation of the will of man. |
|
8 But the tongue no man can tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. |
|
9 By it we bless the LORD and the Father; and by it we curse men, who are made in the image of God: |
|
10 Out of the same mouth proceed curses and blessings. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. |
|
11 Can there spring forth from the same fountain, both sweet water and bitter water? |
|
12 Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olives? Or the vine, figs? likewise also salt water cannot be made sweet. |
|
13 Who is wise among you and has training? let him prove his words by his good deeds, in the humbleness of wisdom. |
|
14 But if you have bitter envying among you, or strife in your hearts, do not boast and do not lie against the truth. |
|
15 This wisdom does not come from above, but it is earthly, sensual, devilish. |
|
16 For wherever envy and strife are, there is confusion and every sort of evil. |
|
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure then full of peace, and gentle, obedient, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. |
|
18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by the peacemakers. |
