祂這樣說難道不是為了我們嗎？這話的確是為我們寫的，因為耕耘的和打穀的農夫都應該存著分享收成的盼望勞作。

不全是为我们说的吗？分明是为我们说的。因为耕种的当存着指望去耕种；打场的也当存得粮的指望去打场。

他不全是为我们说的吗？的确是为我们说的！因为耕种的要存着指望去耕种；收割的也要存着分享谷物的指望去收割。

非概為我儕言之乎、固為我儕而書也、因耕者當以所望而耕、打穀者宜有共得之望、

此非為我言乎、固為我言也、使耕者望穡而耕、打稻者共得所望焉、

天主豈為牛慮乎、抑特為我言之乎、固為我載之、蓋耕者必以望而耕、碾穀者亦必因望而碾、即得穀之望也、

其作是語也、非為吾人之故乎？固為吾人之故也。欲使耕耘者、懷收穫之望而耕耘；勞作者、懷共享之望而勞作也。

Surely he says this for us, doesn’t he? Yes, this was written for us, because whoever plows and threshes should be able to do so in the hope of sharing in the harvest.

Doesn’t he say that for us? Yes, it was written for us. Whoever plows and separates the grain hopes to share the harvest. And it is right for them to hope for this.

or saith he it assuredly for our sake? Yea, for our sake it was written: because he that ploweth ought to plow in hope, and he that thresheth, to thresh in hope of partaking.

辛勞的農夫理當先享受收成。

「他被算為義人」這句話不單單是為他寫的，也是為將來要被算為義人的我們寫的，就是相信上帝使主耶穌從死裡復活的人。

從前寫在聖經上的話都是為了教導我們，使我們靠著忍耐和聖經的鼓勵而有盼望。

你們不是說還有四個月才到收割的時候嗎？舉目向田觀看吧，莊稼已經熟了，可以收割了。收割的人不但可以得到報酬，而且可以為永生收穫果實，叫撒種的和收割的一同快樂。俗語說得好，『那人撒種，這人收割。』我派你們去收割那些你們沒有勞作的莊稼，別人勞苦，你們享受他們勞苦的成果。」

其實一切都是為了你們，好叫恩典臨到更多的人，有更多人向上帝感恩，使上帝得榮耀。

因為我們是上帝的同工，你們是上帝的園地和建築。

如果不縮短那段時期，恐怕沒有一人能活命。但上帝必為祂選民的緣故，而縮短那災期。

「你們誰會對種田或放羊回來的奴僕說，『請趕快坐下來吃飯』？不都是吩咐他『給我準備晚飯，束上腰帶伺候我用餐，等我吃完，你才可以吃』嗎？
