阿爾瑪給他兒子柯林安頓的命令。

The commandments of Alma to his son Corianton.

編成第三十九至四十二章

Comprising chapters 39 to 42 inclusive.

性罪是一種憎行──柯林安頓的罪使卓倫人不接受神的話──基督的救贖具有追溯力，能拯救在基督救贖前的忠信者。約主前七四年。

Sexual sin is an abomination—Corianton’s sins kept the Zoramites from receiving the word—Christ’s redemption is retroactive in saving the faithful who preceded it. About 74 B.C.

1 我兒，我對你講的話要比對你哥哥講的多些；因為看啊，難道你沒有看到你哥哥的堅定、忠信，和他遵守神誡命的努力嗎？看啊，難道他沒有為你樹立好榜樣嗎？

1 And now, my ^ason, I have somewhat more to say unto thee than what I said unto thy brother; for behold, have ye not observed the steadiness of thy brother, his faithfulness, and his diligence in keeping the commandments of God? Behold, has he not set a good ^bexample for thee?

2 因為在^ａ卓倫人當中，你沒有像你哥哥那樣那麼留意我的話。你一直誇耀自己的力量和聰明，這就是我對你不滿的事情。

2 For thou didst not give so much heed unto my words as did thy brother, among the people of the ^aZoramites. Now this is what I have against thee; thou didst go on unto boasting in thy strength and thy wisdom.

3 我兒，不僅如此，你還做了令我心痛的事，你放棄事工，到拉曼人邊境的沙龍地，追求^ａ妓女伊賽貝兒。

3 And this is not all, my son. Thou didst do that which was grievous unto me; for thou didst forsake the ministry, and did go over into the land of Siron among the borders of the Lamanites, after the ^aharlot Isabel.

4 是的，她確實^ａ竊取了許多人的心，然而，我兒，這不是你的藉口，你應該去做交託給你的事工。

4 Yea, she did ^asteal away the hearts of many; but this was no excuse for thee, my son. Thou shouldst have tended to the ministry wherewith thou wast entrusted.

5 我兒，難道你不知道^ａ這些事在神眼中是一種憎行，是的，除了流無辜者的血或否認聖靈以外，是所有罪中最可憎的嗎？

5 Know ye not, my son, that these things are an abomination in the sight of the Lord; yea, most ^aabominable above all sins save it be the shedding of innocent ^bblood or denying the Holy Ghost?

6 因為看啊，假如你^ａ否認你曾一度擁有的聖靈，而又知道你否認他，看啊，這就是一種^ｂ不得赦免的罪；是的，凡違反神的光和知識而謀殺的，不易得到^ｃ寬恕；是的，我兒，我告訴你，這人不易得到寬恕。

6 For behold, if ye ^adeny the Holy Ghost when it once has had place in you, and ye know that ye deny it, behold, this is a sin which is ^bunpardonable; yea, and whosoever murdereth against the light and knowledge of God, it is not easy for him to obtain^cforgiveness; yea, I say unto you, my son, that it is not easy for him to obtain a forgiveness.

7 我兒，我多麼希望你沒有^ａ犯這麼大的罪。要不是為了你好，我實在不願詳述你的罪行，來折磨你的靈魂。

7 And now, my son, I would to God that ye had not been ^aguiltyof so great a crime. I would not dwell upon your crimes, to harrow up your soul, if it were not for your good.

8 但是看啊，你無法在神前隱藏你的罪行，除非你悔改，否則你的罪必在末日成為對你不利的見證。

8 But behold, ye cannot ^ahide your crimes from God; and except ye repent they will stand as a testimony against you at the last day.

9 我兒，我希望你悔改並棄絕罪，不要再追求眼睛的^ａ欲望，卻要^ｂ離棄這些事；除非你這樣做，否則你無法承受神的國。記住，要毅然離棄這些事。

9 Now my son, I would that ye should repent and forsake your sins, and go no more after the ^alusts of your eyes, but ^bcrossyourself in all these things; for except ye do this ye can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God. Oh, remember, and take it upon you, and ^ccross yourself in these things.

10 我命令你，你所做的事一定要與你的哥哥商量，因為看啊，你還年輕，需要哥哥照顧，你要留意他們的勸告。

10 And I command you to take it upon you to counsel with your elder brothers in your undertakings; for behold, thou art in thy youth, and ye stand in need to be nourished by your brothers. And give heed to their counsel.

11 不要讓自己被虛妄愚蠢之事引入歧途，不要再讓魔鬼迷惑你的心，去追求那些邪惡的妓女。看啊，我兒，你害^ａ卓倫人犯了多麼嚴重的罪啊；因為他們看到你的^ｂ行為，就不願意相信我的話了。

11 Suffer not yourself to be led away by any vain or foolish thing; suffer not the devil to lead away your heart again after those wicked harlots. Behold, O my son, how great ^ainiquity ye brought upon the ^bZoramites; for when they saw your ^cconduct they would not believe in my words.

12 如今主的靈對我說：^ａ命令你的子女行善，以免他們引導許多人的心走向毀滅；因此，我兒，我懷著對神的敬畏，命令你不要再犯罪。

12 And now the Spirit of the Lord doth say unto me: ^aCommandthy children to do good, lest they ^blead away the hearts of many people to destruction; therefore I command you, my son, in the fear of God, that ye ^crefrain from your iniquities;

13 你當盡意、盡能、盡力轉向主，不要再引導人心去作惡；卻要回到他們那裡，^ａ承認你的過失和所犯的錯誤。

13 That ye turn to the Lord with all your mind, might, and strength; that ye lead away the hearts of no more to do wickedly; but rather return unto them, and ^aacknowledge your faults and that wrong which ye have done.

14 ^ａ不要追求這世上的財富和無益的東西；因為看啊，你帶不走那些東西。

14 ^aSeek not after riches nor the vain things of this world; for behold, you cannot carry them with you.

15 我兒，現在我想和你講一些有關基督來臨的事。看啊，我告訴你，那一定要來除去世人罪惡的就是祂；是的，祂來向祂的人民宣布救恩的好信息。

15 And now, my son, I would say somewhat unto you concerning the ^acoming of Christ. Behold, I say unto you, that it is he that surely shall come to take away the sins of the world; yea, he cometh to declare glad tidings of salvation unto his people.

16 我兒，你蒙召擔任的事工，就是向這人民宣布這些好信息，準備他們的心；換句話說，就是要使救恩得以臨到他們，讓他們可以準備好^ａ子孫的心，在祂來臨時聆聽祂的話。

16 And now, my son, this was the ministry unto which ye were called, to declare these glad tidings unto this people, to prepare their minds; or rather that salvation might come unto them, that they may prepare the minds of their ^achildren to hear the word at the time of his coming.

17 現在我要減輕一些你對此事的疑慮。看啊，你奇怪何以這些事這麼早就讓人知道。看啊，我告訴你，對神而言，現在的一個靈魂和他來臨時的一個靈魂，不是同樣寶貴嗎？

17 And now I will ease your mind somewhat on this subject. Behold, you marvel why these things should be known so long beforehand. Behold, I say unto you, is not a soul at this time as precious unto God as a soul will be at the time of his coming?

18 這些人和他們的子孫，不都同樣必須知道救贖計畫嗎？

18 Is it not as necessary that the plan of redemption should be^amade known unto this people as well as unto their children?

19 主現在派天使向我們宣布這些好信息，不是和向我們的子孫宣布，或祂來臨後宣布同樣容易嗎？

19 Is it not as easy at this time for the Lord to ^asend his angel to declare these glad tidings unto us as unto our children, or as after the time of his coming?
