Q4: Which date is celebrated for Mammon (Chinese god of prosperity)?

问题四：大年初几是庆祝财神爷的日子？

youdao

Because you did not serve the LORD your God joyfully and gladly in the time of prosperity.

因为你富有的时候，不欢心乐意地事奉耶和华你的神。

youdao

In times of prosperity men ask too little of God. In times of adversity, they ask too much.

在繁荣昌盛之时人们向上帝索求太少，在灾祸逆境之时他们向上帝索求太多。

youdao

Love and loyalty are mere abstractions, however, without some sort of vehicle for their expression; and the vehicle for their expression then is God's Torah, the sum total of God's teachings and instructions and laws and guidelines, which are supposed to ensure long life and prosperity in the land.

爱和忠诚都是一种无法表述的吸引力,于是律法卷就成了表述它们的方式,即对上帝的教诲，指导，律法和方针的,汇总，它将保证这片土地长久的,繁荣。
