7 James 1:19–27 (NIV) 19 My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20 for man’s anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires. 21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. 22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 25 But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does. 26 If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless. 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

8 雅各 James 1:19-27 19我親愛的弟兄們，這是你們所知道的‧但你們各人要快快的聽，慢慢的說，慢慢的動怒‧20因為人的怒氣，並不成就 神的義‧21所以你們要脫去一切的污穢，和盈餘的邪惡，存溫柔的心領受那所栽種的道，就是能救你們靈魂的道‧22只是你們要行道，不要單單聽道，自己欺哄自己‧23因為聽道而不行道的，就像人對著鏡子看自己本來的面目‧24看見，走後，隨即忘了他的相貌如何‧25惟有詳細察看那全備使人自由之律法的，並且時常如此，這人既不是聽了就忘，乃是實在行出來，就在他所行的事上必然得福‧26若有人自以為虔誠，卻不勒住他的舌頭，反欺哄自己的心，這人的虔誠是虛的‧27在 神我們的父面前，那清潔沒有玷污的虔誠，就是看顧在患難中的孤兒寡婦，並且保守自己不沾染世俗‧

9 太 Matt 13:19-23 19”When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path. 20The one who received the seed that fell on rocky places is the man who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. 21But since he has no root, he lasts only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away. 22The one who received the seed that fell among the thorns is the man who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it, making it unfruitful. 23But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it. He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.” 19凡聽見天國道理不明白的，那惡者就來，把所撒在他心裡的奪了去‧這就是撒在路旁的了‧20撒在石頭地上的，就是人聽了道，當下歡喜領受‧21只因心裡沒有根，不過是暫時的‧及至為道遭了患難，或是受了逼迫，立刻就跌倒了‧22撒在荊棘裡的，就是人聽了道，後來有世上的思慮，錢財的迷惑，把道擠住了，不能結實‧23撒在好地上的，就是人聽道明白了，後來結實，有一百倍的，有六十倍的，有三十倍的‧

(NIV) 19我親愛的弟兄們，這是你們所知道的‧但你們各人要 快快的聽，慢慢的說，慢慢的動怒‧20因為人的怒氣， 並不成就 神的義‧21所以你們要脫去一切的污穢，和盈 餘的邪惡，存溫柔的心領受那所栽種的道，就是能救你 們靈魂的道‧
