詩篇‬ ‭113‬:‭1‬-‭9‬ ‭「你們要讚美耶和華！ 耶和華的僕人哪，你們要讚美， 讚美耶和華的名！ 耶和華的名是應當稱頌的， 從今時直到永遠！ 從日出之地到日落之處， 耶和華的名是應當讚美的！ 耶和華超乎萬民之上； 他的榮耀高過諸天。 誰像耶和華－我們的神呢？ 祂坐在至高之處， 自己謙卑， 觀看天上地下的事。 祂從灰塵裏擡舉貧寒人， 從糞堆中提拔窮乏人， 使他們與王子同坐， 就是與本國的王子同坐。 祂使不能生育的婦人安居家中， 為多子的樂母。 你們要讚美耶和華！」
Praise ye Jehovah.
Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah,
Praise the name of Jehovah.
Blessed be the name of Jehovah
From this time forth and for evermore.
From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same
Jehovah’s name is to be praised.
Jehovah is high above all nations,
And his glory above the heavens.
Who is like unto Jehovah our God,
That hath his seat on high,
That humbleth himself to behold
The things that are in heaven and in the earth?
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust,
And lifteth up the needy from the dunghill;
That he may set him with princes,
Even with the princes of his people.
He maketh the barren woman to keep house, And to be a joyful mother of children.
Praise ye Jehovah.
(Psalms 113:1-9 ASV) ‭‭

「萬軍之耶和華啊， 你的居所何等可愛！ 我羨慕渴想耶和華的院宇； 我的心腸，我的肉體向永生神呼籲。 萬軍之耶和華－我的王，我的神啊， 在你祭壇那裏，麻雀為自己找着房屋， 燕子為自己找着菢雛之窩。 如此住在你殿中的便為有福！ 他們仍要讚美你。（細拉）」
‭‭詩篇‬ ‭84‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭

How lovely is your dwelling place,
O LORD of hosts!
My soul longs, yes, faints
for the courts of the LORD ;
my heart and flesh sing for joy
to the living God.

Even the sparrow finds a home,
and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may lay her young,
at your altars, O LORD of hosts,
my King and my God.
Blessed are those who dwell in your house,
ever singing your praise!
(Psalms 84:1-4 ESV)

祂不在這裡，已經復活了。你們應當記得他還在加利利的時候，怎樣告訴你們，
(路加福音 24:6 新譯本)

He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee,
(Luke 24:6 ESV)

你們要稱謝耶和華，求告他的名，
在萬民中傳揚他的作為！
要向他唱詩歌頌，
談論他一切奇妙的作為！
要以他的聖名誇耀！
尋求耶和華的人，心中應當歡喜！
要尋求耶和華與他的能力，
時常尋求他的面。
(詩篇 105:1-4 和合本)

Oh give thanks to the LORD ; call upon his name;
make known his deeds among the peoples!
Sing to him, sing praises to him;
tell of all his wondrous works!
Glory in his holy name;
let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!
Seek the LORD and his strength;
seek his presence continually!
(Psalms 105:1-4 ESV)

「凡從人間挑選的大祭司，是奉派替人辦理屬神的事，為要獻上禮物和贖罪祭。 他能體諒那愚蒙的和失迷的人，因為他自己也是被軟弱所困。 故此，他理當為百姓和自己獻祭贖罪。 這大祭司的尊榮，沒有人自取。惟要蒙神所召，像亞倫一樣。 如此，基督也不是自取榮耀作大祭司，乃是在乎向他說「你是我的兒子，我今日生你」的那一位； 就如經上又有一處說：「你是照着麥基洗德的等次永遠為祭司。」」
‭‭希伯來書‬ ‭5‬:‭1‬-‭6‬ ‭

For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. He can deal gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself is beset with weakness. Because of this he is obligated to offer sacrifice for his own sins just as he does for those of the people. And no one takes this honor for himself, but only when called by God, just as Aaron was.
So also Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest, but was appointed by him who said to him,
“You are my Son,
today I have begotten you”;
as he says also in another place,
“You are a priest forever,
after the order of Melchizedek.”
(Hebrews 5:1-6 ESV)

「我們既有這許多的見證人，如同雲彩圍着我們，就當放下各樣的重擔，脫去容易纏累我們的罪，存心忍耐，奔那擺在我們前頭的路程， 仰望為我們信心創始成終的耶穌。他因那擺在前面的喜樂，就輕看羞辱，忍受了十字架的苦難，便坐在神寶座的右邊。」
‭‭希伯來書‬ ‭12‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
(Hebrews 12:1-2 ESV)

「你們要向耶和華唱新歌！ 因為祂行過奇妙的事； 祂的右手和聖臂施行救恩。 耶和華發明了祂的救恩， 在列邦人眼前顯出公義； 記念祂向以色列家所發的慈愛，所憑的信實。 地的四極都看見我們上帝的救恩。 全地都要向耶和華歡樂； 要發起大聲，歡呼歌頌！ 要用琴歌頌耶和華， 用琴和詩歌的聲音歌頌祂！用號和角聲， 在大君王耶和華面前歡呼！ 願海和其中所充滿的澎湃； 世界和住在其間的也要發聲。 願大水拍手； 願諸山在耶和華面前一同歡呼； 因為祂來要審判遍地。 祂要按公義審判世界， 按公正審判萬民。」
‭‭(詩篇‬ ‭98‬:‭1‬-‭9‬ ‭ Psalm 98:1-9 NIV）

Sing to the LORD a new song,
for he has done marvelous things;
his right hand and his holy arm
have worked salvation for him.
The LORD has made his salvation known
and revealed his righteousness to the nations.
He has remembered his love
and his faithfulness to Israel;
all the ends of the earth have seen
the salvation of our God.

Shout for joy to the LORD , all the earth,
burst into jubilant song with music;
make music to the LORD with the harp,
with the harp and the sound of singing,
with trumpets and the blast of the ram’s horn—
shout for joy before the LORD , the King.

Let the sea resound, and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it.
Let the rivers clap their hands,
let the mountains sing together for joy;
let them sing before the LORD ,
for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness
and the peoples with equity.

Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD ;
let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come before him with thanksgiving
and extol him with music and song.

For the LORD is the great God,
the great King above all gods.
In his hand are the depths of the earth,
and the mountain peaks belong to him.
The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.

Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;
for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.
(Psalm 95:1-7 NIV)
