They bear fruit even when they are old; they are filled with vitality and have many leaves.

他们年老的时候仍要结果子，要满了汁浆而常发青，

他们发白的时候仍结果子，而且鲜美多汁，

他们发白的时候仍结果子，而且鲜美多汁，

他们到老仍然结果子，一片青翠，

他们年老的时候仍要结果子，经常保持茂盛青翠，

他们在年老时仍然结果实，他们丰美并且青翠，

他們年老的時候仍要結果子，要滿了汁漿而常發青，

他們髮白的時候仍結果子，而且鮮美多汁，

他們髮白的時候仍結果子，而且鮮美多汁，

他們到老仍然結果子，一片青翠，

他們年老的時候仍要結果子，經常保持茂盛青翠，

他們年老時仍然結果子；滿了汁漿、而長青翠，

他們在年老時仍然結果實，他們豐美並且青翠，

暮年猶結其實、汁滿而色青兮、

歷年雖久、結實依然、青青向榮兮、

雖老仍可興旺、依舊榮茂豐盛、

植根聖圃。霑漑化雨。

They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green,

When they get old, they will still bear fruit. Like young trees they will stay fresh and strong.

They still bear fruit in old age; they are ever full of sap and green,

Even in old age they will still produce fruit; they will remain vital and green.

They will still bear fruit in old age, healthy and green,

They will still yield fruit in advanced age; They will be full of sap and very green,

They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing,

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; They shall be full of sap and green:

They will still bear fruit in old age, healthy and green,

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;

They will still produce fruit in old age. They will be full of sap and green,

They will be like a tree planted near a stream whose roots spread out toward the water. It has nothing to fear when the heat comes. Its leaves are always green. It has no need to be concerned in a year of drought. It does not stop bearing fruit.

Even when I am old and gray, O God, do not abandon me, until I tell the next generation about your strength, and those coming after me about your power.

Even when you are old, I will take care of you, even when you have gray hair, I will carry you. I made you and I will support you; I will carry you and rescue you.

filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God.

He takes away every branch that does not bear fruit in me. He prunes every branch that bears fruit so that it will bear more fruit.You are clean already because of the word that I have spoken to you.Remain in me, and I will remain in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you unless you remain in me.“ I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me– and I in him– bears much fruit, because apart from me you can accomplish nothing.

Even now the ax is laid at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.

He is like a tree planted by flowing streams; it yields its fruit at the proper time, and its leaves never fall off. He succeeds in everything he attempts.

But the righteous man holds to his way, and the one with clean hands grows stronger.

On both sides of the river’s banks, every kind of tree will grow for food. Their leaves will not wither nor will their fruit fail, but they will bear fruit every month, because their water source flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food and their leaves for healing.”

But the path of the righteous is like the bright morning light, growing brighter and brighter until full day.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,gentleness, and self- control. Against such things there is no law.

These men are dangerous reefs at your love feasts, feasting without reverence, feeding only themselves. They are waterless clouds, carried along by the winds; autumn trees without fruit– twice dead, uprooted;

King David said to the entire assembly:“ My son Solomon, the one whom God has chosen, is just an inexperienced young man, and the task is great, for this palace is not for man, but for the LORD God.So I have made every effort to provide what is needed for the temple of my God, including the gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood, as well as a large amount of onyx, settings of antimony and other stones, all kinds of precious stones, and alabaster.Now, to show my commitment to the temple of my God, I donate my personal treasure of gold and silver to the temple of my God, in addition to all that I have already supplied for this holy temple.This includes 3,000 talents of gold from Ophir and 7,000 talents of refined silver for overlaying the walls of the buildings,for gold and silver items, and for all the work of the craftsmen. Who else wants to contribute to the LORD today?”The leaders of the families, the leaders of the Israelite tribes, the commanders of units of a thousand and a hundred, and the supervisors of the king’s work contributed willingly.They donated for the service of God’s temple 5,000 talents and ten thousand darics of gold, 10,000 talents of silver, 18,000 talents of bronze, and 100,000 talents of iron.All who possessed precious stones donated them to the treasury of the LORD’s temple, which was under the supervision of Jehiel the Gershonite.The people were delighted with their donations, for they contributed to the LORD with a willing attitude; King David was also very happy.David praised the LORD before the entire assembly:“ O LORD God of our father Israel, you deserve praise forevermore!O LORD, you are great, mighty, majestic, magnificent, glorious, and sovereign over all the sky and earth! You have dominion and exalt yourself as the ruler of all.You are the source of wealth and honor; you rule over all. You possess strength and might to magnify and give strength to all.Now, our God, we give thanks to you and praise your majestic name!“ But who am I and who are my people, that we should be in a position to contribute this much? Indeed, everything comes from you, and we have simply given back to you what is yours.For we are resident foreigners and nomads in your presence, like all our ancestors; our days are like a shadow on the earth, without security.O LORD our God, all this wealth, which we have collected to build a temple for you to honor your holy name, comes from you; it all belongs to you.I know, my God, that you examine thoughts and are pleased with integrity. With pure motives I contribute all this; and now I look with joy as your people who have gathered here contribute to you.O LORD God of our ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, maintain the motives of your people and keep them devoted to you.Make my son Solomon willing to obey your commands, rules, and regulations, and to complete building the palace for which I have made preparations.”David told the entire assembly:“ Praise the LORD your God!” So the entire assembly praised the LORD God of their ancestors; they bowed down and stretched out flat on the ground before the LORD and the king.The next day they made sacrifices and offered burnt sacrifices to the LORD( 1,000 bulls, 1,000 rams, 1,000 lambs), along with their accompanying drink offerings and many other sacrifices for all Israel.They held a feast before the LORD that day and celebrated. Then they designated Solomon, David’s son, as king a second time; before the LORD they anointed him as ruler and Zadok as priest.Solomon sat on the LORD’s throne as king in place of his father David; he was successful and all Israel was loyal to him.All the officers and warriors, as well as all of King David’s sons, pledged their allegiance to King Solomon.The LORD greatly magnified Solomon before all Israel and bestowed on him greater majesty than any king of Israel before him.David son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.He reigned over Israel forty years; he reigned in Hebron seven years and in Jerusalem thirty-three years.He died at a good old age, having enjoyed long life, wealth, and honor. His son Solomon succeeded him.King David’s accomplishments, from start to finish, are recorded in the Annals of Samuel the prophet, the Annals of Nathan the prophet, and the Annals of Gad the prophet.Recorded there are all the facts about his reign and accomplishments, and an account of the events that involved him, Israel, and all the neighboring kingdoms.
