第370号 怀爱伦在哥本哈根

MR No. 370 - Ellen White in Copenhagen
§3
有一小群相貌聪明高贵的男男女女聚会——丹麦人。他们因着布罗森和马特森弟兄的努力而接受了真理，他们中的许多人是在我们美国的弟兄们一无所知的困难之下接受真理的。……{6MR143.1}[1]
§4
There was a little company assembled of intelligent, noble looking men and women--Danes. They had accepted the truth through Brother Brorsons and Mattesons labors and many of them had received the truth under difficulties that our American brethren know nothing of. . . . {6MR 143.1}[1]
§5
看到藉着证言所赐的亮光感动了从未见到主已使用之工具之人的心，这对我来说是一个鼓励。（《文稿》1885年25号第4,5页，日记，1885年10月6至14日）{6MR143.2}[2]
§6
It is an encouragement to me to see that the light given through the testimonies reaches hearts that never saw the instrument that the Lord has employed.--Ms 25, 1885, pp. 4, 5. (Diary, October 6 to 14, 1885.) {6MR 143.2}[2]
§7
现在有一千五百木匠找不到工作。……去年冬天有暴动、叛乱和犯罪活动。饥饿是一个严厉的主人，会导致人做孤注一掷的事。哥本哈根是民兵组织的大本营。有一道长长的封锁线，有士兵的营房，有一支强大的军队时常在场，应召镇压任何暴乱，平息任何暴力行为。（《信函》1886年102号第2页，致我非常亲爱的孩子们，1886年7月25日）{6MR143.3}[3]
§8
Fifteen hundred carpenters cannot get work now. . . . Last winter there were uprisings and revolt and crime. Hunger is a hard master. It will lead to doing desperate things. Copenhagen is a stronghold of the militia. There is a long string of blocks, the soldiers barracks, and a strong force is on hand constantly to be called upon to put down any riot or quell any violence. --Letter 102, 1886, p. 2. (To My Very Dear Children, July 25, 1886.) {6MR 143.3}[3]
§9
正对着我们窗户的是城市植物花园。这个园子里有各种树木和形形色色的植物与花草。围场中有几个大型苗圃。有一个人工湖和假山，收集和分类了许多岩石。在这个园子里准备了座椅，方便游客，人人都可随意入园。{6MR143.4}[4]
§10
Directly opposite our windows is the city botanical garden. In this garden are many trees of every variety, and plants and flowers of every description. There are several large nursery buildings in the enclosure. There is an artificial lake and artificial hill where many rocks are gathered and classified. In this garden seats are arranged for the convenience of visitors and all may enter it that choose. {6MR 143.4}[4]
§11
W.C.怀特和我几乎每天都走过那里。……{6MR143.5}[5]
§12
W. C. White and I have walked over the grounds nearly every day. . . . {6MR 143.5}[5]
§13
这里的街道布局很自由随意。通向我们聚会点的街道有100多英尺宽，用三排树分成七部分。第一部分是人行道，第二部分是马车行的，铺有石头；接下来是骑马的人行的；然后是一条宽阔的步行街；接下来是另一条马车道，然后是人行道。这对各方来说都是宽大、安全、方便的。然而我越过这个想到上帝所经营所建造的那座城，城中的宽阔街道是纯金的，宛如透明的玻璃。（《文稿》1886年15b号第1页，〈访问哥本哈根〉，1886年7月21日）{6MR144.1}[6]
§14
The streets here are arranged upon a very liberal plan. The streets which leads to our place of meeting is over 100 feet wide and is divided into seven parts with three rows of trees between them. The first is sidewalk, the second a place for carriages, this paved with stone; then comes a place for men on horseback; then a broad street for footmen; next another carriage way and then the sidewalk. This is all grand, safe, and convenient for all parties. But I look away from this in imagination to that city whose builder and maker is God, and whose broad streets are of pure gold as it were transparent glass.--Ms 15b, 1886, p. 1. (Visit to Copenhagen, July 21, 1886.) {6MR 144.1}[6]
§15
在哥本哈根这里有宝贵的信徒。外人一直很有兴趣参加我们的聚会。晚上会堂里满了人。我们很高兴在一些初信的人身上看到作工的精神。一些人表示为这座大城里的工作很着急。他们要求我们不要离开他们而任由现在的兴趣消失。他们强求有会继续介绍真理的人留下来。我们知道会这样，然而谁要留下来呢？……这是一座大城，他们要如何受到警告呢？这是一个难题，除了我们现有的工人之外没有工人了。这是一个经常要考虑的问题，我们要怎样把真理带到在欧洲的人面前呢？我们请问，为什么这些国籍的一些已经在美国接受真理的人不变得对国人有负担，并且成为上帝的宣教士呢？（《信函》1886年85号第9-11页，致乌利亚.史密斯，1886年7月24日）{6MR144.2}[7]
§16
There are precious ones who believe, here in Copenhagen. There has been a good interest from outsiders to attend our meetings. The hall has been filled evenings. We were glad to see the spirit of labor upon some here newly come to the faith. Some expressed great anxiety for the work in this large city. They appealed to us not to leave them and let the present interest die away. They importuned for someone to remain who would continue to present the truth. We know this should be thus, but who? . . . This is a great city and how are they to be warned? This is the problem, with no more workers than we now have. It is a constant study, How shall we get the truth before the people in Europe? Why, we inquire, do not some of these nationalities who have received the truth in America become burdened over their countrymen and become missionaries for God?--Letter 85, 1886, pp. 9-11. (To Uriah Smith, July 24, 1886.) {6MR 144.2}[7]
§17
我们来到哥本哈根的时候，有一些穿着朱红色衣服的人鲜艳夺目，到处可见。一条布鲁塞尔地毯从车厢铺到车站，在那里他（一位皇室成员）经过一道拱门，马车等在那里，饰有羽毛的士兵们护送他去王宫。……{6MR145.1}[8]
§18
When we came to Copenhagen there were men dressed in scarlet who were brilliantly flashing everywhere. A Brussels carpet was laid down from the car to the depot where he [a member of the royal family] passed through an arched doorway and hacks were waiting with plumed soldiers to escort him to his palace. . . . {6MR 145.1}[8]
§19
自从我们第一次访问他们以来，哥本哈根有了何等大的改变啊！我们的聚会在一个潮湿的小会堂里举行。……后来我们的聚会转移到了地下室。上面是一个舞厅，我们周围尽是酒吧。……近一年以前——7月17日——我再次访问了哥本哈根。……我们有了一个会堂——在我们第一次来访问时那个会堂之上有了改善。……聚会的人数也比我们第一次来访的时候增加了一倍，有些人是品质最好的人。……而今，6月4日，我们看见许多人已经加添到守安息日的人中间，我们的心很高兴看到一等受人尊敬、高贵、聪明的信徒在哥本哈根的城中聚会。……我们可以惊叹：“上帝行了何等的大事！”{6MR145.2}[9]
§20
What a great change in Copenhagen since we first visited them! Our meetings were held in a little damp hall. . . . Next our meeting was transferred to a basement. Above was a dancing hall and there were saloons all around us. . . . Nearly a year ago--July 17--I again visited Copenhagen. . . . We had a hall--an improvement upon the one we had on our first visit . . . and there were more than double the number when we were on our first visit, and some of the best quality of people. . . . And now, June 4, we see many who have been added to the numbers of Sabbath-keepers and our hearts were made glad to see a respectable, noble, intelligent class of believers assembled in the city of Copenhagen. . . . We could exclaim, What hath God wrought! {6MR 145.2}[9]
§21
在这座大城中还能取得进步，只要工人们不会超越工作的简朴，而会保持谦卑圣洁和对上帝的依赖。（《文稿》1887年33号，第1,3,4页，日记，1887年6月1至8日）1974年5月23日发布。{6MR145.3}[10]
§22
And in this great city the work may still progress if the workers will not get above the simplicity of the work but will keep humble and holy and dependent upon God.--Ms 33, 1887, pp. 1, 3, 4. (Diary, June 1 to 8, 1887.) Released May 23, 1974. {6MR 145.3}[10]
