第一百零六篇

Section 106

一八三四年十一月二十五日，在俄亥俄，嘉德蘭，透過先知約瑟 • 斯密給予的啟示〔教會史，2:170–171〕。這是給奧利佛 • 考德里的哥哥華倫 • 考德里的啟示。

Revelation given through Joseph Smith the Prophet, at Kirtland, Ohio, 25 November 1834 (see History of the Church, 2:170–71). This revelation is directed to Warren A. Cowdery, an older brother of Oliver Cowdery.

1–3，華倫 • 考德里要被召喚為當地的主領職員；4–5，第二次來臨不會像賊那樣突然臨到光明之子；6–8，極大的祝福隨著教會中忠信的服務而來。

1–3, Warren A. Cowdery is called as a local presiding officer; 4–5, The Second Coming will not overtake the children of light as a thief; 6–8, Great blessings follow faithful service in the Church.

1 我的意思是，我僕人華倫 • 考德里，要被指定並按立為我在^ａ弗立登地及其周圍各地區教會的主領大祭司；

1 It is my will that my servant Warren A. Cowdery should be appointed and ordained a presiding high priest over my church, in the land of ^aFreedom and the regions round about;

2 並且不僅要在他自己的地方，也要在鄰近各郡，傳我永久的福音，提高聲音警告人民。

2 And should preach my ^aeverlasting gospel, and lift up his voice and warn the people, not only in his own place, but in the adjoining counties;

3 並將全部時間奉獻於我現在給他的這項崇高而神聖的召喚，勤奮^ａ尋求^ｂ天上的國和義，這樣所需的一切東西都要加給他；因為^ｃ工人得工價是應當的。

3 And devote his whole time to this high and holy calling, which I now give unto him, ^aseeking diligently the kingdom of heaven and its righteousness, and all things necessary shall be added thereunto; for the ^blaborer is worthy of his hire.

4 還有，我實在告訴你們，^ａ主的來臨^ｂ近了，這來臨要像夜間的^ｃ賊一樣突然臨到世人──

4 And again, verily I say unto you, the ^acoming of the Lord draweth nigh, and it overtaketh the world as a ^bthief in the night—

5 所以，束緊你們的腰，好使你們成為^ａ光明之子，那日子就不會^ｂ像賊那樣突然臨到你們。

5 Therefore, gird up your loins, that you may be the ^achildren of light, and that day shall not ^bovertake you as a thief.

6 還有，我實在告訴你們，當我僕人華倫向我的權杖屈身，並將自己與世人的奸詐隔離時，天上有喜樂；

6 And again, verily I say unto you, there was joy in heaven when my servant Warren bowed to my scepter, and separated himself from the crafts of men;

7 所以，我僕人華倫有福了，因為我必憐憫他；而且，雖然他有^ａ虛榮心，只要他在我面前謙卑，我必高舉他。

7 Therefore, blessed is my servant Warren, for I will have mercy on him; and, notwithstanding the ^avanity of his heart, I will lift him up inasmuch as he will humble himself before me.

8 我必給他^ａ恩典和保證，使他能站得住；如果他繼續作忠信的證人和教會的光，我已在我父的^ｂ住處為他預備了冠冕。正如這樣。阿們。

8 And I will give him ^agrace and assurance wherewith he may stand; and if he continue to be a faithful witness and a ^blight unto the church I have prepared a crown for him in the ^cmansions of my Father. Even so. Amen.
