Section 4

一八二九年二月,在賓夕法尼亞,哈茂耐,透過先知約瑟 • 斯密給予他父親老約瑟 • 斯密的啟示〔教會史,1:28〕。

Revelation given through Joseph Smith the Prophet to his father, Joseph Smith, Sr., at Harmony, Pennsylvania, February 1829 (see History of the Church, 1:28).

1–4,英勇的服務使主的僕人得救;5–6,屬神的品格使他們有資格擔任事工;7,務必尋求屬神的事物。

1–4, Valiant service saves the Lord’s ministers; 5–6, Godly attributes qualify them for the ministry; 7, The things of God must be sought after.

1 現在看啊,一件奇妙的事工就要來到人類兒女中間。

1 Now behold, a amarvelous work is about to come forth among the children of men.

2 因此,你們著手為神服務的人啊,你們一定要盡、盡能、盡意、盡力事奉祂,使你們在末日能無可指責地站在神面前。

2 Therefore, O ye that embark in the aservice of God, see that yebserve him with all your heart, might, mind and strength, that ye may stand cblameless before God at the last day.

3 因此,你們若有事奉神的心願,就被召喚做這事工;

3 Therefore, if ye have desires to serve God ye are acalled to the work;

4 因為看啊,田地已經白得可以收穫了;並且,看著,用力揮動鐮刀的人,就是在儲藏,他就不會滅亡,卻為他的靈魂帶來救恩;

4 For behold the afield is white already to bharvest; and lo, he that thrusteth in his sickle with his might, the same layeth up incstore that he perisheth not, but bringeth salvation to his soul;

5 而且信心希望仁愛愛心,以及眼睛專注於神的榮耀,使他有資格擔任這事工。
