But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”

But we had to celebrate and be glad. This brother of yours was dead. And now he is alive again. He was lost. And now he is found.’ ”

因為我這個兒子死又再活了；失掉又得着了。」他們就歡躍起來。

你們呢、你們過去的時候在你們的過犯和罪惡中是死的；那時你們行於其中，順着這世界的世風，順着空中有權勢的執政者，就是現今在悖逆的人身上運用動力的靈。就是我們從前也都在其中，在我們肉體的私慾裏起居，行肉體上、心神上所意願的，生來就是該受上帝義怒的兒女，像會外人一樣——。然而上帝富於憐憫，因他愛我們的盛愛，竟在我們因過犯而死的時候、使我們和基督同活（你們得了救、就是靠着恩）。上帝使我們和基督一同活起來，一同坐在天界中在基督耶穌裏，他好在將來的世代、在基督耶穌裏、用慈惠向我們證顯他的恩之極豐富。你們得了救就是靠着恩、憑着信。這又不是出於你們自己，乃是上帝的禮物：不是出於行為，免得有人自誇。因為我們乃是他所造之物，是在基督耶穌裏被創造，為行善事、就是上帝早已豫備好了、使我們行於其中的。

永恆主說：『這蓖麻樹你不曾勞苦栽植過，不曾培養大的，一夜發生，一夜死滅，你尚且顧惜；何況尼尼微這大城，其中不曉得分辨左手右手的有十二萬多人，並有許多牲口，我哪能不顧惜呢？』

求你用歡喜快樂使我滿足，使你所壓傷的骨頭得以踴躍歡欣。

蒙永恆主贖救的人必返回，必歡呼來到錫安；永遠的喜樂必歸到他們頭上；歡躍喜樂、他們必得到，憂愁歎息盡都逃走。

誰是智慧人，讓他明白這些事吧！誰是明達人，讓他領會吧！因為永恆主的道路是正直的，義人行走於其中，違犯者卻跌倒於其上。

斷乎不能；上帝總是真誠的，雖則人人都撒謊；正如經上所記：『以致你在你的判語上總得證為對，你在被論斷時總必得勝。』

人子來了，也喫也喝，你們就說，「看哪，一個貪喫好酒的人！收稅人和『罪人』的朋友！」

也要使外國人因上帝的憐憫來榮耀上帝，如經上所記：『故此我要在外國中頌揚你，歌頌你的名。』經上又說：『外國人哪，和主的子民同歡躍哦！』又說：『眾外國啊，你們要讚頌主；萬族之民哪，你們要稱讚他。』又有以賽亞說：『將來必有耶西的根，那興起來要治理外國的；外國必將盼望釘住於他。』願使人有盼望的上帝，因你們的相信，將全備的喜樂和平安充滿你們，使你們本着聖靈的能力、充盈滿溢地有盼望。

我們曉得、律法無論說甚麼，都是向律法以內的人講的，好堵住每一個人的口，使全世界的人都伏在上帝審判之下；
