Instead, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

宁可往以色列家迷失的羊那里去。

宁可往以色列家迷失的羊那里去。

宁可往以色列家迷失的羊那里去。

要到以色列人当中寻找迷失的羊。

却要到以色列家的迷羊那里去。

宁愿到以色列家迷失的羊那里去。

寧可往以色列家迷失的羊那裏去。

寧可往以色列家迷失的羊那裏去。

寧可往以色列家迷失的羊那裏去。

要到以色列人當中尋找迷失的羊。

卻要到以色列家的迷羊那裡去。

寧可去找以色列家失掉的羊。

寧願到以色列家迷失的羊那裡去。

寧就以色列家之亡羊也、

惟以色列家亡羊、就之為愈、

惟就以色列家之亡羊、

但訪求義塞家中之亡羊。

My people were lost sheep; their shepherds led them astray, guiding them the wrong way in the mountains. They wandered from mountain to hill; they forgot their resting place.

For you were like sheep going astray, but you have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

I wander like a lost sheep; seek your servant, for I do not forget your commands.

Paul and Barnabas boldly replied,“ It was necessary that the word of God be spoken to you first. Since you reject it and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, we are turning to the Gentiles.

We all went astray like sheep; we all have turned to our own way; and the LORD has punished him for the iniquity of us all.

My flock went astray on all the mountains and every high hill. My flock was scattered over the whole face of the earth, and there was no one searching or seeking for them.

God raised up his servant and sent him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your evil ways.”

He replied,“ I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”But she came, knelt before him, and said,“ Lord, help me!”He answered,“ It isn’t right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”

As I live— this is the declaration of the Lord GOD— because my flock, lacking a shepherd, has become prey and food for every wild animal, and because my shepherds do not search for my flock, and because the shepherds feed themselves rather than my flock,

“ See to it that you don’t despise one of these little ones, because I tell you that in heaven their angels continually view the face of my Father in heaven.

Disagreeing among themselves, they began to leave after Paul made one statement:“ The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your ancestors through the prophet Isaiahwhen he said, Go to these people and say: You will always be listening, but never understanding; and you will always be looking, but never perceiving.For the hearts of these people have grown callous, their ears are hard of hearing, and they have shut their eyes; otherwise they might see with their eyes and hear with their ears, understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them.Therefore, let it be known to you that this salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen.”

I ask, then, have they stumbled so as to fall? Absolutely not! On the contrary, by their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel jealous.Now if their transgression brings riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their fullness bring!Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Insofar as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry,if I might somehow make my own people jealous and save some of them.For if their rejection brings reconciliation to the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead?

When they resisted and blasphemed, he shook out his clothes and told them,“ Your blood is on your own heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”

So he told them this parable:“ What man among you, who has a hundred sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open field and go after the lost one until he finds it?When he has found it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders,and coming home, he calls his friends and neighbors together, saying to them,‘ Rejoice with me, because I have found my lost sheep!’I tell you, in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who don’t need repentance.“ Or what woman who has ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it?When she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying,‘ Rejoice with me, because I have found the silver coin I lost!’I tell you, in the same way, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”

Instead, I preached to those in Damascus first, and to those in Jerusalem and in all the region of Judea, and to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works worthy of repentance.

and repentance for forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed in his name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

I will seek the lost, bring back the strays, bandage the injured, and strengthen the weak, but I will destroy the fat and the strong. I will shepherd them with justice.

Israel is a stray lamb, chased by lions. The first who devoured him was the king of Assyria; the last who crushed his bones was King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon.
