But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,

然而，神既有丰富的怜悯，因他爱我们的大爱，

然而，上帝有丰富的怜悯，因着他爱我们的大爱，

然而，神有丰富的怜悯，因着他爱我们的大爱，

然而上帝有丰富的怜悯，祂深爱我们，

然而神满有怜悯，因着他爱我们的大爱，

不过神有丰富的怜悯，因着他爱我们的大爱，

然而，神既有豐富的憐憫，因他愛我們的大愛，

然而，上帝有豐富的憐憫，因着他愛我們的大愛，

然而，神有豐富的憐憫，因着他愛我們的大愛，

然而上帝有豐富的憐憫，祂深愛我們，

然而神滿有憐憫，因著他愛我們的大愛，

然而上帝富於憐憫，因他愛我們的盛愛，

不過神有豐富的憐憫，因著他愛我們的大愛，

但上帝富有矜恤、以浩大之愛愛我、

惟上帝洪慈、愛我甚溥、

惟天主之矜恤甚宏、以大愛愛我儕、

然富於慈悲之天主、按其愛人之大德、

But God loves us deeply. He is full of mercy.

But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us,

But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much,

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love that he had for us,

But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,

but God, being rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love that He had for us,

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

But God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us,

But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared,he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior,so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace

in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus.

But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.

For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile— the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him,

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love.He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever;he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him;

The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love.

The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit.And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God.And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus.There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.We love because he first loved us.

Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the boundless riches of Christ,

Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?

And the Lord said,“ I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

What if he did this to make the riches of his glory known to the objects of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory—

The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying:“ I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.

You, Lord, are forgiving and good, abounding in love to all who call to you.

“‘ Then I passed by and saw you kicking about in your blood, and as you lay there in your blood I said to you,“ Live!”I made you grow like a plant of the field. You grew and developed and entered puberty. Your breasts had formed and your hair had grown, yet you were stark naked.“‘ Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that you were old enough for love, I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your naked body. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Sovereign Lord, and you became mine.

They refused to listen and failed to remember the miracles you performed among them. They became stiff-necked and in their rebellion appointed a leader in order to return to their slavery. But you are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love. Therefore you did not desert them,

And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming,“ The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness,maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.”

because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven

Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy.You will again have compassion on us; you will tread our sins underfoot and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea.You will be faithful to Jacob, and show love to Abraham, as you pledged on oath to our ancestors in days long ago.

Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions.

Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near.Let the wicked forsake their ways and the unrighteous their thoughts. Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them, and to our God, for he will freely pardon.“ For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord.

It is not because of your righteousness or your integrity that you are going in to take possession of their land; but on account of the wickedness of these nations, the Lord your God will drive them out before you, to accomplish what he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.Understand, then, that it is not because of your righteousness that the Lord your God is giving you this good land to possess, for you are a stiff-necked people.

For he says to Moses,“ I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.

The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples.But it was because the Lord loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

He prayed to the Lord,“ Isn’t this what I said, Lord, when I was still at home? That is what I tried to forestall by fleeing to Tarshish. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity.

The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more,so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

He has saved us and called us to a holy life— not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time,

The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against him;

But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because God chose you as firstfruits to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth.
