在基督裏、照那按自己旨意之計畫運行萬事者的定旨所豫定的、我們也被分派、做成了上帝的業分，

我们也在他里面得了基业；这原是那位随己意行作万事的，照着他旨意所预定的，

我们也在他里面得了基业；这原是那位随己意行万事的上帝照着自己的旨意所预定的，

我们也在他里面得了基业；这原是那位随己意行万事的神照着自己的旨意所预定的，

我们也在基督里被拣选成为祂的子民。这都是按自己旨意行万事的上帝预先定下的计划，

那凭着自己旨意所计划而行万事的，按着他预先所安排的，预定我们在基督里得基业（“得基业”或译：“成为神的产业”），

在基督里，我们也得了继业，是照着那一位的心意而预先定下的，他按着自己旨意的计划来运作万事，

我們也在他裏面得了基業；這原是那位隨己意行、做萬事的，照着他旨意所預定的，

我們也在他裏面得了基業；這原是那位隨己意行萬事的上帝照着自己的旨意所預定的，

我們也在他裏面得了基業；這原是那位隨己意行萬事的神照着自己的旨意所預定的，

我們也在基督裡被揀選成為祂的子民。這都是按自己旨意行萬事的上帝預先定下的計劃，

那憑著自己旨意所計劃而行萬事的，按著他預先所安排的，預定我們在基督裡得基業（“得基業”或譯：“成為神的產業”），

在基督裡，我們也得了繼業，是照著那一位的心意而預先定下的，他按著自己旨意的計劃來運作萬事，

我儕於彼亦得為業、乃依己旨行萬事者所預定、

惟隨意行萬事者、預定我、因基督、得嗣業、

惟隨己意行萬事之主、循其旨預定我儕因基督而得嗣業、

蓋吾人之得因基督而倖成天主之眾嗣者、實由淵然深識、匠心獨運之天主所預定

In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,

We were also chosen to belong to him. God decided to choose us long ago in keeping with his plan. He works out everything to fit his plan and purpose.

In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will,

Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.

In him we have also received an inheritance, because we were predestined according to the plan of the one who works out everything in agreement with the purpose of his will,

In Him we also have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things in accordance with the plan of His will,

In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,

in whom also we were made a heritage, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his will;

We have also received an inheritance in Him, predestined according to the purpose of the One who works out everything in agreement with the decision of His will,

In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

In Christ we too have been claimed as God’s own possession, since we were predestined according to the one purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to the counsel of his will

We were also assigned an inheritance in him, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who does all things after the counsel of his will,

並且我們曉得，凡愛上帝的、就是按他的定旨蒙召的人、上帝在萬事上都和他們同工，來成就有益的事。

來得個不能朽壞、不能染污、不能衰殘、為你們保留在天上的基業，

聖靈是我們得嗣業的質定，直等到做上帝產業的得贖放，使他的榮耀得稱讚。

這是依照他在我們主基督耶穌裏所立萬世之定旨的。

照這樣、上帝呢，上帝既定意向那些承受應許的後嗣更充分指明他計畫之不可更改，也就加上了起誓作保，

我從起初就說出末後的事，從古時就言明未成的事，說：「我的計畫必立定，我所喜悅的、我都必作成」；就是召鷙鳥從東方而來，召我計畫中的人從遠地而到。我已說出，我必實現；我已制定，我必作成。

他按着自己旨意所喜悅的、豫定我們藉着耶穌基督得了被立為子的名分、而歸於他，

因為承繼產業若是由於律法，便不是由於應許；但上帝恩賜亞伯拉罕、卻是憑着應許的。

永恆主知照純全人在世的日子；他們的產業必存到永遠；

去開他們的眼，使他們從黑暗中轉到光中，從撒但的權下轉向上帝，使他們獲得罪赦，又得業分、在因信我而成聖別的人中間。」

既是兒女，便是後嗣：是上帝的後嗣，和基督同做後嗣，如果我們和他一同受苦、的話；那是要使我們也和他同得榮耀。

因為上帝全部的計畫、我並沒有退縮而不傳告你們。

這個人、按着上帝所立定的計畫和豫知被送官，你們藉着不法之人的手給釘上，殺掉了。

要作你手和你計畫所豫定必成的一切事。

好叫我們既因他的恩得稱為義，便可憑着盼望而承受永生。

我們也感謝父，因為他使你們能夠有分於眾聖者在光中的業分。

誰曾指揮永恆主的靈，或做過他的謀士去指教他呢？他跟誰商議，而誰給他明達；誰將對的路徑教導他，誰教訓他知識，將明哲之道路指教他呢？

『誰知道主的心思？誰做過他的參謀呢？

這也是出於萬軍之永恆主：他的計畫奇妙，他的謀略廣大。

不可以惡報惡，或以辱罵報辱罵；倒要祝福；因為你們是為了這個而蒙召、好承受祝福的。

如今我把你們託付於上帝和他恩惠之道，就是能建立你們，能在一切成聖別的人中間將遺業賜給你們的。

而你們呢、永恆主卻把你們從埃及、從鑄鐵爐子那裏領出來，要做他自己擁有的人民，像今日一樣。

你的計畫宏大，你的作為有大能，你的眼睜開着、在察看着世人一切所行的，要照各人所行的、照他所作所為的結果來報應各人。

因為他們中間有誰曾站在永恆主之機密圈中，得以理會而聽到他的話呢？有誰曾留心聽他的話而聽得到呢？

因為知道你們必由主得着基業為報償：你們服事的乃是主基督。

他曾使這恩典充盈滿溢地流給我們，使我們有全備的智慧和明達、

那些譏誚着說：『任他迅速些，任他趕快成就他的作為，讓我們看看！任以色列之聖者所計畫的臨近，任它到來，讓我們知道！』

我有計畫和謀略；我乃明達；我有能力。

我親愛的弟兄們請聽，上帝豈不是揀選了世人以為窮的而富於信仰，以承受他所應許給愛他之人的國麼？

是所羅巴伯要建成永恆主的殿堂；是約書亞要擔當祭司的尊榮，是所羅巴伯要坐在寶座上執政；是約書亞也要在寶座上；他們二人之間必有和諧合作的計畫。』」

其實智慧和能力盡在於上帝；上帝有謀略有明哲。
