2 1 John 2:15-17 約 翰 一 書 1 Juan 15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only: a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 不 要 愛 世 界 和 世 界 上 的 事 。人 若 愛 世 界 ， 愛 父 的 心 就 不 在 他 裡 面 了 。因 為 凡 世 界 上 的 事 ， 就 像 肉 體 的 情 慾 ， 眼 目 的 情 慾 ， 並 今 生 的 驕 傲 ， 都 不 是 從 父 來 的 ， 乃 是 從 世 界 來 的 No amen al mundo ni nada de lo que hay en él. Si alguien ama al mundo, no tiene el amor del Padre. 16 Porque nada de lo que hay en el mundo —los malos deseos del *cuerpo, la codicia de los ojos y la arrogancia de la vida— proviene del Padre sino del mundo.

3 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. 這 世 界 和 其 上 的 情 慾 都 要 過 去 ， 惟 獨 遵 行 神 旨 意 的 ， 是 永 遠 常 存 El mundo se acaba con sus malos deseos, pero el que hace la voluntad de Dios permanece para siempre

7 Psalm 127 詩 篇 Salmos 127 Unless the LORD builds a house, the work of the builders is wasted. Unless the LORD protects a city, guarding it with sentries will do no good. 所 羅 門 上 行 之 詩 。若 不 是 耶 和 華 建 造 房 屋 ， 建 造 的 人 就 枉 然 勞 力 ； 若 不 是 耶 和 華 看 守 城 池 ， 看 守 的 人 就 枉 然 警 醒 。 Si el SEÑOR no edifica la casa, en vano se esfuerzan los albañiles. Si el SEÑOR no cuida la ciudad, en vano hacen guardia los vigilantes.

8 Psalm 127:2 It is useless for you to work so hard from early morning until late at night, anxiously working for food to eat; for God gives rest to his loved ones. 你 們 清 晨 早 起 ，夜 晚 安 歇 吃 勞 碌 得 來 的 飯 ，本 是 枉 然 ； 惟 有 耶 和 華 所 親 愛 的 ，必 叫 他 安 然 睡 覺 En vano madrugan ustedes, y se acuestan muy tarde, para comer un pan de fatigas, porque Dios concede el sueño a sus amados.
