His Steadfast Love Endures Forever
A Psalm for (A)giving thanks.

It is he who (F)made us, and (G)we are his;[a]
we are his (H)people, and (I)the sheep of his pasture.
4 (J)Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his (K)courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; (L)bless his name!
5 (M)For the Lord is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his (N)faithfulness to all generations.

神慰藉其民
40 你們的神說：「你們要安慰，安慰我的百姓！ 2 要對耶路撒冷說安慰的話，又向她宣告說，她爭戰的日子已滿了，她的罪孽赦免了，她為自己的一切罪從耶和華手中加倍受罰。」
預言在曠野有備耶和華之道者
3 有人聲喊著說：「在曠野預備耶和華的路[a]，在沙漠地修平我們神的道！ 4 一切山窪都要填滿，大小山岡都要削平，高高低低的要改為平坦，崎崎嶇嶇的必成為平原。 5 耶和華的榮耀必然顯現，凡有血氣的必一同看見，因為這是耶和華親口說的。」
6 有人聲說：「你喊叫吧！」有一個說：「我喊叫什麼呢？」說：「凡有血氣的盡都如草，他的美容都像野地的花。 7 草必枯乾，花必凋殘，因為耶和華的氣吹在其上——百姓誠然是草！ 8 草必枯乾，花必凋殘，唯有我們神的話必永遠立定。」
主為善牧
9 報好信息給錫安的啊，你要登高山！報好信息給耶路撒冷的啊，你要極力揚聲！揚聲不要懼怕，對猶大的城邑說：「看哪，你們的神！」 10 主耶和華必像大能者臨到，他的膀臂必為他掌權。他的賞賜在他那裡，他的報應在他面前。 11 他必像牧人牧養自己的羊群，用膀臂聚集羊羔抱在懷中，慢慢引導那乳養小羊的。

Isaiah 40:1-11
English Standard Version
Comfort for God's People
40 (A)Comfort, comfort my people, says your God.
2 (B)Speak tenderly to Jerusalem,
and cry to her
that (C)her warfare[a] is ended,
that her iniquity is pardoned,
that she has received from the Lord's hand
double for all her sins.
3 (D)A voice cries:[b]
(E)“In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord;
(F)make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
4 (G)Every valley shall be lifted up,
and every mountain and hill be made low;
the uneven ground shall become level,
and the rough places a plain.
5 (H)And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed,
and all flesh shall see it together,
(I)for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
The Word of God Stands Forever
6 A voice says, “Cry!”
And I said,[c] “What shall I cry?”
(J)All flesh is grass,
and all its beauty[d] is like the flower of the field.
7 The grass withers, the flower fades
when the breath of the Lord blows on it;
surely the people are grass.
8 (K)The grass withers, the flower fades,
but the word of our God will stand forever.
The Greatness of God
9 Go on up to a high mountain,
O Zion, (L)herald of good news;[e]
lift up your voice with strength,
O Jerusalem, herald of good news;[f]
lift it up, fear not;
say to the cities of Judah,
“Behold your God!”
10 (M)Behold, the Lord God comes with might,
and his arm rules for him;
(N)behold, his reward is with him,
and his recompense before him.
11 (O)He will tend his flock like a shepherd;
(P)he will gather the lambs in his arms;
(Q)he will carry them in his bosom,
and gently lead those that are with young.

Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
生命水和生命樹
22 天使又指示我在城內街道當中一道生命水的河，明亮如水晶，從神和羔羊的寶座流出來。 2 在河這邊與那邊有生命樹，結十二樣[a]果子，每月都結果子，樹上的葉子乃為醫治萬民。 3 以後再沒有咒詛。在城裡有神和羔羊的寶座，他的僕人都要侍奉他， 4 也要見他的面。他的名字必寫在他們的額上。
不再有黑夜
5 不再有黑夜，他們也不用燈光、日光，因為主神要光照他們。他們要做王，直到永永遠遠。
遵守這書上預言的有福了
6 天使又對我說：「這些話是真實可信的。主，就是眾先知被感之靈的神，差遣他的使者，將那必要快成的事指示他僕人。」 7 「看哪，我必快來！凡遵守這書上預言的有福了！」
8 這些事是我約翰所聽見、所看見的，我既聽見、看見了，就在指示我的天使腳前俯伏要拜他。 9 他對我說：「千萬不可！我與你，和你的弟兄眾先知，並那些守這書上言語的人，同是做僕人的。你要敬拜神！」

Revelation 22:1-9
English Standard Version
The River of Life
22 Then the angel[a] showed me (A)the river of (B)the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 through the middle of (C)the street of the city; (D)also, on either side of the river, (E)the tree of life[b] with its twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. The leaves of the tree were (F)for the healing of the nations. 3 (G)No longer will there be anything accursed, but (H)the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and (I)his servants will worship him. 4 (J)They will see his face, and (K)his name will be on their foreheads. 5 And (L)night will be no more. They will need no light of lamp (M)or sun, for (N)the Lord God will be their light, and (O)they will reign forever and ever.
Jesus Is Coming
6 And he said to me, (P)“These words are trustworthy and true. And the Lord, the God of (Q)the spirits of the prophets, (R)has sent his angel to show his servants what must soon take place.”
7 “And behold, (S)I am coming soon. (T)Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.”
8 I, (U)John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, (V)I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me, 9 (W)but he said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those (X)who keep the words of this book. Worship God.”
