ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).
5:227
σαυτὸν δὲ τὸν νῦν ἐν μαλακοῖς ἱματίοις ὄντα καὶ μύρων πνέοντα, ἀνήκεστα πάσχοντα; τί σοι τοῦ πλούτου καὶ τῆς περιουσίας ἔσται ὄφελος; τί δὲ τῷ χειροτέχνῃ τῆς πενίας βλάβος; Ἵν' οὖν μὴ πάθωμεν ταῦτα, φοβηθῶμεν τὰ λεγόμενα νῦν, καὶ τὴν ἀσχολίαν ἅπασαν εἰς τὴν τῶν ἀναγκαίων πραγμάτων ἀναλώσωμεν διατριβήν
but yourself, who now art clothed in soft garments and breathing of perfumes, suffering remediless things—what profit will your wealth and abundance be to you? and what harm will his poverty be to the craftsman? That we may not, then, suffer these things, let us fear the words now spoken, and let us spend all our leisure in the pursuit of things necessary.
而你自己,就是那如今身穿柔軟衣服、噴著香氣的人,卻受著無可救藥的苦楚時,你的財富和豐裕於你有何益處呢?那工匠的貧窮於他又有何損害呢?那麼,為叫我們不至遭受這些事,就讓我們懼怕如今所說的話,並把我們一切的閒暇,都用在追求那些必需之事的操練上。
5:228
Οὕτω γὰρ ἐξιλεωσάμενοι τὸν Θεὸν ὑπὲρ τῶν παρελθόντων ἁμαρτημάτων, καὶ τὰ μέλλοντα προσθέντες κατορθώματα, δυνησόμεθα τῆς βασιλείας ἐπιτυχεῖν τῶν οὐρανῶν, χάριτι καὶ φιλανθρωπίᾳ, καὶ τὰ ἑξῆς
For having in this manner propitiated God for our past sins, and having added to them the good deeds that are to come, we shall be able to attain the kingdom of heaven, by the grace and lovingkindness [of our Lord Jesus Christ], and so forth.
因為我們既如此為過去的罪過向神求得挽回,又加上將來當行的善功,就必能得著諸天的國,藉著〔我們主耶穌基督的〕恩典與慈愛,等等。
