[BR]4:12(wo men de ji nian ri)
直等到我们众人在真道上同归于一,认识神的儿子,得以长大成人,满有基督长成的身量。 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
使我们不再作小孩子,中了人的诡计,和欺骗的法术,被一切异教之风摇动,飘来飘去,就随从各样的异端。 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
全身都靠他联络得合式,百节各按各职,照着各体的功用,彼此相助,便叫身体渐渐增长,在爱中建立自己。 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.
