经文 · 和合本 1919 / KJV（公版） · Scripture · CUV 1919 / KJV (public domain)
所以你们要弃绝谎言、各人与邻舍说实话．因为我们是互相为肢体。 生气却不要犯罪．不可含怒到日落． 也不可给魔鬼留地步。 从前偷窃的、不要再偷．总要劳力、亲手作正经事、就可有余、分给那缺少的人。 污秽的言语、一句不可出口、只要随事说造就人的好话、叫听见的人得益处。 不要叫 神的圣灵担忧．你们原是受了他的印记、等候得赎的日子来到。 一切苦毒、恼恨、忿怒、嚷闹、毁谤、并一切的恶毒、都当从你们中间除掉． 并要以恩慈相待、存怜悯的心、彼此饶恕、正如 神在基督里饶恕了你们一样。
English
Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another. Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil. Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth. Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.
在生活中默想 · 灵修解释 · Reflecting in daily life · Devotional interpretation
以弗所书 4 对群体生活的劝勉包括诚实、处理怒气、言语造就与彼此饶恕。把这些带到家庭中，需要具体地思考说话和行动如何影响身边的人。 我们相隔很远，想念也伴随着担忧。距离限制相见，却不取消关心；稳定的小联系，比焦虑地反复确认更有帮助。今天可以从一个小而具体的回应开始：约定一次双方方便的视频通话。
English
Ephesians 4 addresses honesty, anger, constructive speech, and forgiveness in shared life. Family application considers the concrete effects of words and actions on those nearby. Distance brings both longing and worry for my family. Distance limits visits but not care. Steady contact can help more than anxious checking. Begin with a small concrete response today: Arrange a video call at a mutually suitable time.

天父，我们相隔很远，想念也伴随着担忧。求你在这个处境中陪伴我，使我不必隐藏真实的感受。距离限制相见，却不取消关心；稳定的小联系，比焦虑地反复确认更有帮助。请赐我分辨与勇气，让我今天愿意这样回应：约定一次双方方便的视频通话。当结果还未明朗时，帮助我耐心尽自己的责任，也接受可信之人的支持。愿我的言语与行动显出爱，把无法掌握的部分交托给你。奉耶稣的名，阿们。

Father, Distance brings both longing and worry for my family. Be with me here and help me bring my feelings honestly before you. Distance limits visits but not care. Steady contact can help more than anxious checking. Give me wisdom and courage to respond today: Arrange a video call at a mutually suitable time. While the outcome is uncertain, help me fulfill my responsibilities patiently and receive support from trustworthy people. Let my words and actions show love as I entrust what I cannot control to you. In Jesus' name, amen.
