歷代志下 II Chronicles 20:1-4
1 此後，摩押人和亞捫人，又有米烏尼人，一同來攻擊約沙法。2 有人來報告約沙法說：「從海外亞蘭（又作以東）那邊有大軍來攻擊你，如今他們在哈洗遜他瑪，就是隱基底。」3 約沙法便懼怕，定意尋求耶和華，在猶大全地宣告禁食。4 於是猶大人聚會，求耶和華幫助。猶大各城都有人出來尋求耶和華。
1 After this, the Moabites and Ammonites with some of the Meunites came to wage war against Jehoshaphat. 2 Some people came and told Jehoshaphat, “A vast army is coming against you from Edom,1 from the other side of the Dead Sea. It is already in Hazezon Tamar” (that is, En Gedi). 3 Alarmed, Jehoshaphat resolved to inquire of the Lord, and he ...

彼得前書 I Peter 5:6-10
所以，你們要自卑，服在神大能的手下，到了時候他必叫你們升高。 你們要將一切的憂慮卸給神，因為他顧念你們。務要謹守，警醒。因為你們的仇敵魔鬼，如同吼叫的獅子，遍地遊行，尋找可吞吃的人。你們要用堅固的信心抵擋他，因為知道你們在世上的眾弟兄也是經歷這樣的苦難。 那賜諸般恩典的神曾在基督裡召你們，得享他永遠的榮耀，等你們暫受苦難之後，必要親自成全你們，堅固你們，賜力量給你們。
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 8 Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the ...

使徒行傳 Acts 12:4 -7, 11
希律拿了彼得，收在監裡，交付四班兵丁看守，每班四個人，意思要在逾越節後把他提出來，當著百姓辦他。於是彼得被囚在監裡；教會卻為他切切的禱告神。希律將要提他出來的前一夜，彼得被兩條鐵鍊鎖著，睡在兩個兵丁當中；看守的人也在門外看守。忽然，有主的一個使者站在旁邊，屋裡有光照耀，天使拍彼得的肋旁，拍醒了他，說：「快快起來！」那鐵鍊就從他手上脫落下來。 11 彼得醒悟過來，說：「我現在真知道主差遣他的使者，救我脫離希律的手和猶太百姓一切所盼望的。」
4 After arresting him, he put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by four squads of four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring him out for public trial after the Passover. 5 So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him. 6 The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was ...

路得記 Ruth 1:16-17
路得說：「不要催我回去不跟隨你。你往那裡去，我也往那裡去；你在那裡住宿，我也在那裡住宿；你的國就是我的國，你的神就是我的神。你在那裡死，我也在那裡死，也葬在那裡。除非死能使你我相離！不然，願耶和華重重的降罰與我。」
But Ruth replied, “Don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord deal with me, be it ever so severely, if even death separates you and ...
