For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,

你们从前不顺服神，如今因他们的不顺服，你们倒蒙了怜恤。

你们从前不顺服上帝，如今因他们的不顺服，你们倒蒙了怜悯。

你们从前不顺服神，如今因他们的不顺服，你们倒蒙了怜悯。

你们从前不顺服上帝，然而因为他们的不顺服，你们现在反蒙了怜悯。

正如你们从前不顺服神，现在却因着他们的不顺服，你们倒蒙了怜悯；

正如你们以前不肯信从神而现在却因他们的不信从反而蒙了怜悯；

昔爾曹不信天主、今反因以色列人之不信、而蒙矜恤、

適如曩日爾曹未順天主、今乃緣義塞人之不順、而蒙矜恤；

Just as you who were at one time disobedient to God have now received mercy as a result of their disobedience,

At one time you did not obey God. But now you have received mercy because Israel did not obey.

For just as you were at one time disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience,

Once, you Gentiles were rebels against God, but when the people of Israel rebelled against him, God was merciful to you instead.

As you once disobeyed God but now have received mercy through their disobedience,

For just as you once were disobedient to God, but now have been shown mercy because of their disobedience,

For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience,

For as ye in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,

As you once disobeyed God, but now have received mercy through their disobedience,

For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:

Just as you were formerly disobedient to God, but have now received mercy due to their disobedience,

Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom.Some of you were such, but you were washed. But you were sanctified. But you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.

You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins,in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience.

You also once walked in those, when you lived in them;

Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment from the Lord, but I give my judgment as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be trustworthy.

Therefore seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained mercy, we don’t faint.

even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy.

For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,whom he poured out on us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior;that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and of the household of God,being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;

In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

I commit this instruction to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which were given to you before, that by them you may wage the good warfare,

that you were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off are made near in the blood of Christ.
