1My dear brothers and sisters, I have prayed for the power to help you in your personal search for happiness.

1 Wǒ qīn ài de dìxiōng jiěmèi, wǒ yǐ qíqiú néng zài nǐmen qīnzì zhuīqiú xìngfú shí, yǒu lìliàng zhù nǐmen yībìzhīlì.

1我親愛的弟兄姊妹，我已祈求能在你們親自追求幸福時，有力量助你們一臂之力。

2Some might feel happy enough already, yet surely no one would reject the offer of more happiness.

2 Yǒuxiē rén kěnéng juédé zìjǐ yǐjīng gòu xìngfúle, bùguò xiǎngbì méiyǒu rén huì jùjué huòdé gèng duō de xìngfú.

2有些人可能覺得自己已經夠幸福了，不過想必沒有人會拒絕獲得更多的幸福。

3Anyone would be eager to accept a guaranteed offer of lasting happiness.

3 Měi gèrén dōu kěwàng néng huòdé bǎozhèng, dédào yǒngjiǔ de xìngfú.

3每個人都渴望能獲得保證，得到永久的幸福。

4That is what Heavenly Father; His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ; and the Holy Ghost have offered every spirit child of Heavenly Father who now lives, will live, or ever has lived in this world.

4 Tiān fù hé tā de àizǐ yēsū jīdū yǐjí shènglíng suǒ cìyǔ de, jiùshì zhè fèn yǒngjiǔ de xìngfú, qiě yǐ cì gěi tā měi yīgè xiànzài, jiānglái, yìhuò shì guòqù lái dào zhè shìjiè jūzhù de líng tǐ háizi.

4天父和祂的愛子耶穌基督以及聖靈所賜予的，就是這份永久的幸福，且已賜給祂每一個現在、將來、抑或是過去來到這世界居住的靈體孩子。

5That offer is sometimes called the plan of happiness.

5 Tāmen suǒ cìyǔ de yǒu shí yòu chēng xìngfú jì huà.

5祂們所賜予的有時又稱幸福計畫。

6It was so called by the prophet Alma as he taught his son, who was mired in the misery of sin.

6 Xiānzhī ā'ěr mǎ zài jiàodǎo tā nà wèi shēn xiàn zuì'è cǎn kuàng de ér zǐ shí, shì zhèyàng chēnghu nàgè jì huà de.

6先知阿爾瑪在教導他那位身陷罪惡慘況的兒子時，是這樣稱呼那個計畫的。

7Alma knew that wickedness could never be happiness for his son—or for any child of Heavenly Father.

7 Ā'ěr mǎ zhīdào, duì tā de érzi——huò tiān fù de rènhé yīgè háizi lái shuō, xié è jué fēi xìngfú.

7阿爾瑪知道，對他的兒子——或天父的任何一個孩子來說，邪惡絕非幸福。

8He taught his son that increasing in holiness was the only path to happiness.

8 Tā jiàodǎo tā de érzi, shǐ zìjǐ yuè lái yuè shèngjié cái shì tōng wǎng xìngfú de wéiyī dàolù.

8他教導他的兒子，使自己越來越聖潔才是通往幸福的唯一道路。

9He made it plain that greater holiness is made possible through the Atonement of Jesus Christ cleansing and perfecting us.

9 Tā qīngchǔ zhǐchū, wǒmen tòuguò yēsū jīdū de shúzuì dédào jiéjìng hé xiūzào, cái yǒu kěnéng gèngjiā shèngjié.

9他清楚指出，我們透過耶穌基督的贖罪得到潔淨和修造，才有可能更加聖潔。

10Only by faith in Jesus Christ, continuing repentance, and keeping covenants are we able to claim the lasting happiness we all yearn to experience and retain.

10 Wéi yǒu kàozhe duì yēsū jīdū de xìnxīn, bùduàn de huǐgǎi, zūnshǒu shèng yuē, wǒmen dàjiā cáinéng qǔdé xīnzhōng kěwàng tǐyàn bìng liú zhù de yǒngjiǔ xìngfú.

10唯有靠著對耶穌基督的信心，不斷地悔改，遵守聖約，我們大家才能取得心中渴望體驗並留住的永久幸福。

11My prayer for today is that I may help you understand that greater happiness comes from greater personal holiness so that you will act upon that belief.

11我祈求今天能幫助各位瞭解，若要更加幸福，個人就要更加聖潔；並讓各位會按著這個信念採取行動。

12I will then share what I know for myself about what we can do to qualify for that gift of becoming ever more holy.

12因此我要分享我親身得知我們能做什麼，使自己有資格獲得那份讓自己變得無比聖潔的恩賜。

13The scriptures teach us that among other things, we can be sanctified or become more holy when we exercise faith in Christ, demonstrate our obedience, repent, sacrifice for Him, receive sacred ordinances, and keep our covenants with Him.

13先不說別的，光是經文就教導我們許多可以聖化自己，使自己變得更加聖潔的方法，像是運用對基督的信心、展示我們的服從、悔改、為神犧牲奉獻、接受神聖教儀，以及遵守與神所立的聖約。

14Qualifying for the gift of holiness requires humility, meekness, and patience.

14要獲得聖潔這項恩賜的資格，需要謙卑、溫順和耐心。

15One experience of wanting more holiness came for me in the Salt Lake Temple.

15我渴望變得更加聖潔的一個經驗，發生在鹽湖聖殿。

16I entered the temple for the first time having been told little of what to expect.

16我第一次進聖殿的時候，幾乎沒有人告訴我該期待什麼。

17I had seen the words on the building: “Holiness to the Lord” and “The House of the Lord.”

17我以前在聖殿外看過「歸主為聖」和「主的殿」這幾個字。

18I felt a great sense of anticipation.

18我有一股強烈期待的感覺

19Yet I wondered if I was prepared to enter.

19但也懷疑自己是否已準備好進去。

20My mother and father walked ahead of me as we entered the temple.

20走進聖殿的時候，父親母親走在我的前頭。

21We were asked to show our recommends, certifying our worthiness.

21我們被要求出示推薦書，來證明我們配稱。

22My parents knew the man at the recommend desk.

22我的父母認識在推薦書櫃檯的那個人。

23So they lingered a moment to speak with him.

23所以他們稍微逗留了一下，跟他說話。

24I went ahead alone into a large space where everything was sparkling white.

24於是我就自己一個人走進一個很大的地方，那裡每樣東西都閃亮潔白。

25I looked up at a ceiling so high above me it seemed an open sky.

25我抬頭望著上方高高的天花板，天花板彷彿廣闊的天空。

26In that moment, a clear impression came to me that I had been there before.

26在那瞬間，有個清晰的念頭臨到我身上，我先前曾經來過這裡。

27But then, I heard a very soft voice—it was not my own.

27但我接著聽到一個非常輕柔的聲音——不是我自己的聲音。

28The softly spoken words were these: “You have never been here before.

28那輕柔的聲音說：「你從來沒有來過這裡。

29You are remembering a moment before you were born.

29你現在想起的，是你出生前的一個片刻。

30You were in a sacred place like this.

30那時你在一個神聖的地方，就像這裡一樣。

31-39

31You felt the Savior was about to come into the place where you stood.

31你那時感覺救主就要來到你所站的地方，

32And you felt happiness because you were eager to see Him.”

32你當時感到幸福，因為你急切地想見到祂。」

33That experience in the Salt Lake Temple lasted only a moment.

33在鹽湖聖殿的那個經驗，雖然只有片刻。

34Yet the memory of it still brings peace, joy, and quiet happiness.

34但每次回想起這件事時，仍帶來平安、喜樂，以及安靜的幸福。

35I learned many lessons that day.

35我那天學到許多的教訓。

36One was that the Holy Ghost speaks in a still, small voice.

36其中一個就是聖靈以微小的聲音說話。

37I can hear Him when there is spiritual peace in my heart.

37當我心中有屬靈的平安，就能聽見祂。

38He brings a feeling of happiness and assurance that I am becoming more holy.

38祂帶來幸福和確定的感覺，讓我知道自己正變得更加聖潔。

39And that always brings the happiness I felt in those first moments in a temple of God.

39而那樣的感覺，總是帶給我第一次進入神的殿時，所獲得的幸福感受。

40You have observed in your own life and in the lives of others the miracle of happiness coming from growing holiness, becoming more like the Savior.

40你在自己和別人的生活中，都看過因為更加聖潔、變得更像救主，所得到的幸福奇蹟。

41In recent weeks, I have been at the bedside of people who could face death with full faith in the Savior and with happy countenances.

41最近幾週，我去拜訪一些臥病在床的人，他們對救主充滿信心，帶著愉快的面容面對死亡。

42One was a man surrounded by his family.

42其中一位是個男士，他的家人圍繞在旁。

43He and his wife were chatting quietly as my son and I entered.

43我和我兒子進去的時候，他和他的妻子正在輕聲聊天。

44I had known them for many years.

44我認識他們好多年了。

45I had seen the Atonement of Jesus Christ work in their lives and in the lives of their family members.

45我看到耶穌基督的贖罪在他們和他們家人的生活中產生功效。

46They had together chosen to end medical efforts to prolong his life.

46他們已一同選擇停止治療，不再延續他的生命。

47There was a quiet feeling as he spoke to us.

47他跟我們說話的時候，現場有股平靜的感覺。

48He smiled as he expressed gratitude for the gospel and its purifying effects on him and the family he loved.

48他面帶笑容，表達對福音的感謝，感謝福音淬鍊了他和他所愛的家人。

49-57

49He spoke of his happy years of service in the temple.

49他談到他在聖殿服務時的快樂時光。

50At this man’s request, my son anointed his head with consecrated oil.

50在他的請求下，我的兒子用聖化膏油膏抹了他的頭；

51I sealed the anointing.

51我則印證了那膏抹。

52As I did, I had a clear impression to tell him that he would soon see his Savior, face-to-face.

52我在那樣做的時候，清楚感覺到要對他說，他很快就要跟他的救主面對面相見。

53I promised him that he would feel happiness, love, and the Savior’s approval.

53我應許他會感覺到幸福、愛和救主的認可。

54He smiled warmly as we left.

54我們離開時，他面露溫暖的笑容。

55His last words to me were “Tell Kathy I love her.”

55他對我說的最後一句話是：「告訴凱瑟琳，我愛她。」

56My wife, Kathleen, over many years had encouraged generations of his family to accept the Savior’s invitation to come unto Him, make and keep sacred covenants, and so qualify for the happiness that comes as a result of that greater holiness.

56多年來，我的妻子凱瑟琳一直鼓勵他家庭的後代子孫接受救主的邀請，去跟從祂，訂立並遵守聖約，這樣才能有資格獲得因為更加聖潔而來到的幸福。

57He died hours later.

57幾個小時後，他離開了人世。

58Within weeks of his passing, his widow brought a gift to my wife and me.

58他過世幾週後，他的遺孀帶了一份禮物來給我和我的妻子。

59She smiled as we talked.

59我們一邊聊天，她一邊笑著，

60She said pleasantly, “I expected that I would feel sad and lonely.

60愉悅地說：「我原以為我會感到悲傷和寂寞。

61I feel so happy. Do you think that’s all right?”

61結果卻感覺非常幸福。你們覺得這樣沒問題嗎？」

62Knowing how much she loved her husband and how both of them had come to know, love, and serve the Lord, I told her that her feelings of happiness were a promised gift because she had, by her faithful service, been made more holy.

62我知道她非常深愛她的丈夫，也知道他們夫妻倆過去非常努力去認識主、愛主、為主服務，所以我告訴她，她的那份幸福感是神所應許的一項恩賜，因為神已藉著她忠信的服務，使她更加聖潔。

63Her holiness had qualified her for that happiness.

63她的聖潔讓她有資格獲得那種幸福。

64Some listening today may be wondering: “Why do I not feel the peace and happiness promised to those who have been faithful?

64今天在座的一些聽眾可能會問：「為什麼我沒有得到應許給忠信者的那種平安和幸福感覺？

65I have been faithful through terrible adversity, but I don’t feel happiness.”

65我經歷過可怕的逆境，也一直保持忠信，但卻沒有幸福的感覺。」

66Even the Prophet Joseph Smith faced this test.

66即使是先知約瑟·斯密也面臨過這種考驗。

67He prayed for relief when he was confined in a jail in Liberty, Missouri.

67他被囚禁在密蘇里利伯地監獄的時候，曾禱告祈求獲得幫助。

68He had been faithful to the Lord. He had grown in holiness.

68他對主一直都很忠信，也愈發聖潔。

69Yet he felt happiness had been denied.

69但卻覺得幸福離他很遙遠。

70The Lord taught him the lesson of patience we all will need at some time, and perhaps for long periods, in our mortal testing.

70主教導了他有關耐心的一課，那是我們每個人在今生這段考驗期間，有時需要，甚或是長期都需要的。

71-76

71Here is the Lord’s message to His faithful and suffering prophet:

71以下是主給祂這位忠信但受苦的先知的信息：

72“And if thou shouldst be cast into the pit, or into the hands of murderers, and the sentence of death passed upon thee; if thou be cast into the deep; if the billowing surge conspire against thee;if fierce winds become thine enemy; if the heavens gather blackness, and all the elements combine to hedge up the way;

72「如果你被丟到坑裡或兇手的手中，並被判死刑；如果你被丟進深淵裡；如果洶湧的波濤想要謀害你；如果狂風與你為敵；如果諸天聚起黑暗，一切元素都聯合起來阻擋去路；

73and above all, if the very jaws of hell shall gape open the mouth wide after thee, know thou, my son, that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good.

73尤其是，如果地獄的口也向你張大嘴巴要吞沒你，我的兒啊，你要知道，這一切事情都將給你經驗，對你有益處。

74“The Son of Man hath descended below them all. Art thou greater than he?

74「人子曾降下低於這一切，你比祂更偉大嗎？

75“Therefore, hold on thy way, and the priesthood shall remain with thee; for their bounds are set, they cannot pass.

75「所以，持守你的道，聖職必留在你身上；他們的界限已定，他們不能越過。

76Thy days are known, and thy years shall not be numbered less;therefore, fear not what man can do, for God shall be with you forever and ever.”

76你的日子是知道的，你的年數不會少；所以，不要怕人所能做的，因為神必與你同在，永永遠遠。」

77That was the same instructive lesson the Lord gave Job, who paid a heavy price to allow the Atonement to make him more holy.

77主也給約伯同樣的教導，約伯付出慘痛的代價，才使得贖罪能讓他變得更加聖潔。

78We know that Job was holy, from the introduction we have of him: “There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.”

78從經文對約伯的介紹，我們知道他是聖潔的：「烏斯地有一個人名叫約伯；那人完全正直，敬畏神，遠離惡事。」

79Then Job lost his wealth, his family, and even his health.

79接著約伯失去財富、家人，甚至個人的健康。

80You might remember that Job doubted that his greater holiness, gained through greater adversity, had qualified him for greater happiness.

80你們或許記得，約伯曾懷疑自己在經歷較大的逆境，成為更加聖潔後，是否就讓他有資格獲得更大的幸福。

81It seemed to Job that holiness had brought misery.

81因為在約伯看來，聖潔似乎帶來了不幸。

82Yet the Lord gave Job the same correcting lesson He gave Joseph Smith.

82但主給約伯一個矯正的課程，就像祂對約瑟·斯密那樣。

83He let Job see his heartbreaking situation with spiritual eyes. He said:

83祂讓約伯用靈性的眼光，來看待自己心痛欲裂的情況。祂說：

84“Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.

84「你要如勇士束腰；我問你，你可以指示我。

85“Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.

85「我立大地根基的時候，你在哪裏呢？你若有聰明，只管說吧！

86“Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

86「你若曉得就說，是誰定地的尺度？是誰把準繩拉在其上？

87“Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;

87「地的根基安置在何處？地的角石是誰安放的？

88“When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?”

88「那時，晨星一同歌唱；神的眾子也都歡呼。」

89Then, after Job repented of calling God unfair, Job was permitted to see his trials in a higher and holier way.

89約伯曾指稱神不公平，在他為此悔改後，神讓他用一種更崇高、更聖潔的方式，來看待自己的考驗。

90He had repented.

90他確實悔改了。

91-101

91“Then Job answered the Lord, and said,

91「約伯回答耶和華說：

92“I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.

92「我知道，你萬事都能做；你的旨意不能攔阻。

93“Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

93「誰用無知的言語使你的旨意隱藏呢？我所說的是我不明白的；這些事太奇妙，是我不知道的。

94“Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.

94「求你聽我，我要說話；我問你，求你指示我。

95“I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.

95「我從前風聞有你，現在親眼看見你。

96“Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”

96「因此我厭惡自己，在塵土和爐灰中懊悔。」

97After Job repented and so became more holy, the Lord blessed him beyond all he had lost.

97約伯因悔改而變得更加聖潔後，主所賜的祝福，遠超過他之前所失去的一切。

98But perhaps the greatest blessing for Job was to have increased in holiness through adversity and repentance.

98但或許對約伯來說，最大的祝福是透過逆境和悔改，變得越來越聖潔。

99He was qualified to have greater happiness in the days he had yet to live.

99他在有生之年，有資格獲得更大的幸福。

100Greater holiness will not come simply by asking for it.

100單靠祈求，所謂更加聖潔並不會來到；

101It will come by doing what is needed for God to change us.

101去做所有必要的事，讓神來改變我們，它才會來到。

102President Russell M. Nelson has given what seems to me the best counsel of how to move along the covenant path to greater holiness.

102在我看來，關於如何在聖約的道路上進步，變得更加聖潔，羅素·納爾遜會長已給出最好的忠告。

103He pointed the way when he urged:

103他在指出那條道路時，敦促我們說：

104“Experience the strengthening power of daily repentance—of doing and being a little better each day.

104「體驗每天悔改的強化力量；體驗每天都做得更好一點，變得更好一點。

105“When we choose to repent, we choose to change! We allow the Savior to transform us into the best version of ourselves.

105「當我們選擇悔改，就是選擇改變！我們讓救主把我們變成最好的自己。

106We choose to grow spiritually and receive joy—the joy of redemption in Him.

106我們選擇在靈性上成長，獲得喜樂——因祂的救贖而喜樂。

107When we choose to repent, we choose to become more like Jesus Christ!”

107當我們選擇悔改，就是選擇變得更像耶穌基督！」

108President Nelson went on to give us this encouragement in our efforts to become holier: “The Lord does not expect perfection from us at this point. …

108在我們努力變得更加聖潔時，納爾遜會長接著這樣鼓勵我們：「主並沒有期望我們在……此時此刻，就成為完全。

109But He does expect us to become increasingly pure.

109但祂確實期望我們變得愈來愈純潔。

110Daily repentance is the pathway to purity.”

110每天悔改是通往純潔的途徑。」

111President Dallin H. Oaks, in an earlier conference address, also helped me see more clearly how we grow in holiness and how we can know we are moving toward it.

111達林·鄔克司會長在較早期的一場大會講詞，也幫助我更清楚瞭解，我們要如何變得更加聖潔，以及我們要如何知道自己正朝著聖潔邁進。

112He said: “How do we achieve spirituality?

112他說：「我們要如何獲得靈性？

113How do we attain that degree of holiness where we can have the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost?

113如何達到有聖靈經常為伴的聖潔程度？

114How do we come to view and evaluate things of this world with the perspective of eternity?”

114如何以永恆的眼光，來看待與衡量這世上的事物？」

115President Oaks’s answer begins with greater faith in Jesus Christ as our loving Savior.

115鄔克司會長的答案，開頭便說要對耶穌基督有更大的信心，將祂視為我們慈愛的救主。

116That leads us to seek forgiveness every day and to remember Him every day by keeping His commandments.

116這樣做會引導我們每天尋求寬恕，並藉著每天遵守祂的誡命來記得祂。

117That greater faith in Jesus Christ comes as we feast daily on His word.

117當我們每天飽享祂的話語，就會對耶穌基督有更大的信心。

118The hymn “More Holiness Give Me” suggests a way to pray for help in becoming more holy.

118聖詩「使我更加聖潔」則是建議，以禱告祈求幫助的方式，來使自己變得更加聖潔。

119The author wisely suggests that the holiness we seek is a gift from a loving God, granted over time, after all we can do.

119作者很有智慧地點出我們所尋求的聖潔，是來自慈愛之神的一項恩賜，會在我們盡力而為後，日復一日賜給我們。

120You remember the last verse:

120各位記得它最後一段的歌詞：

121More purity give me, More strength to o’ercome, More freedom from earth-stains,More longing for home. More fit for the kingdom, More used would I be, More blessed and holy—More, Savior, like thee.

121使我更加清白，更能戰勝敵；更欲脫離俗世，更念老家裡；更配進入天國，更加有用處；蒙福更加聖潔，更像救主祢。

122Whatever our personal circumstance, wherever we may be on the covenant path home, may our prayers for greater holiness be answered.

122不論我們個人的情況如何，在返回天家這條聖約的道路上身處何地，願我們能更加聖潔的這個祈求都得到回應。

123I know that as our petition is granted, our happiness will increase.

123我知道一旦我們的請求蒙得應允，我們必會越來越幸福。

124It may come slowly, but it will come.

124幸福雖可能會慢慢來到，但終會來到。

125I have that assurance from a loving Heavenly Father and His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ.

125我已從慈愛的天父和祂的愛子耶穌基督得到那樣的保證。

126I testify that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God, that President Russell M. Nelson is our living prophet today.

126我要見證，約瑟·斯密是神的先知，羅素·納爾遜會長是我們今日活著的先知。

127God the Father lives and loves us.

127父神活著，祂愛我們。

128He wants us to come home to Him in families.

128祂希望我們以家庭的形式回家，回到祂身邊。

129Our loving Savior invites us to follow Him on our journey there.

129我們慈愛的救主邀請我們，在返回天家的旅程中要跟隨祂。

130They have prepared the way. In the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amen.

130祂們已預備了那道路，奉耶穌基督的聖名，阿們。
