Pengkhotbah 9:7

Life is Brief, so Cherish its Joys

9:7 Go, eat your food ¹  with joy,

and drink your wine with a happy heart,

because God has already approved your works.

Yohanes 16:24

16:24 Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive it, ²  so that your joy may be complete.

Roma 15:13

15:13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in him, ³  so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Filipi 4:6-7

4:6 Do not be anxious about anything. Instead, in every situation, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, tell your requests to God. 4:7 And the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds ⁴  in Christ Jesus.

[9:7]  ¹ tn Heb “your bread.”

[16:24]  ² tn The word “it” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[15:13]  ³ tn Grk “in the believing” or “as [you] believe,” with the object “him” supplied from the context. The referent could be God (15:13a) or Christ (15:12).

[4:7]  ⁴ tn Grk “will guard the hearts of you and the minds of you.” To improve the English style, the second occurrence of ὑμῶν (Jumwn, “of you”) has not been translated, since it is somewhat redundant in English.
