一﹑本週經文:Scriptures: 詩篇90:12、16-17 Psalm
12 求你指教我們怎樣數算自己的日子,好叫我們得著智慧的心。
16 願你的作為向你僕人顯現;願你的榮耀向他們子孫顯明。 17 願主─我們 神的榮美歸於我們身上。願你堅立我們手所做的工;我們手所做的工,願你堅立。
12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
16 May your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to their children. 17 May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us yes, establish the work of our hands.
