  The meek also shall increase their joy in the Lord, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.Isaiah 29:19.{RRe 10.1}[1]

  温柔是一种宝贵的恩赐，甘心默然受难，乐意忍受考验。温柔乃是忍耐，在任何环境之下竭力快乐。温柔是常存感谢之念，谱出它自己的幸福之歌，心中称颂上帝。温柔是忍受失望与苦待，而不报复。温柔并非沉闷，乖戾。与温柔相反的乃是郁闷的性情；这种乖僻的性情只是令人伤痛，它本身没有一点快乐。（3T 335）[2]

  Meekness is a precious grace, willing to suffer silently, willing to endure trials. Meekness is patient, and labors to be happy under all circumstances. Meekness is always thankful, and makes its own songs of happiness, making melody in the heart to God. Meekness will suffer disappointment and wrong, and will not retaliate. Meekness is not to be silent and sulky. A morose temper is the opposite of meekness; for this only wounds and gives pain to others, and takes no pleasure to itself.—Testimonies for the Church 3:335.{RRe 10.2}[2]

  温柔安静的心不会总是寻求自己快乐，而会寻求忘记自我，在使别人快乐的过程中得享美好的满足和真正的满意。（3T 536）[3]

  A meek and quiet spirit will not be ever looking out for happiness for itself, but will seek for self-forgetfulness, and find sweet content and true satisfaction in making others happy.—Testimonies for the Church 3:536.{RRe 10.3}[3]

  世界的救赎主本有比天使更高贵的本性，然而祂神圣的尊严仍然与温柔和谦卑相结合，吸引万人来归向祂。……基督的温柔表现在家庭里，就会使一家快乐。这种温柔不会引起争执，不会报人以恼怒，而会抚慰不平的心，井流露出一种柔情，使周围的人都能感受得到。无论何处，只要有这样的温柔，就会使地上的家庭成为天上大家庭的一部分。（MB 14，16）[4]

  The world’s Redeemer had a greater than angelic nature, yet united with His divine majesty were meekness and humility that attracted all to Himself.... The meekness of Christ, manifested in the home, will make the inmates happy; it provokes no quarrel, gives back no angry answer, but soothes the irritated temper, and diffuses a gentleness that is felt by all within its charmed circle. Wherever cherished, it makes the families of earth a part of the one great family above.—Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing, 16.{RRe 10.4}[4]
