D&C 41
Hearken
and
a
hear,
O
ye
my
people,
saith
the
Lord
and
your
God,
ye
whom
I
delight
to
bless
with
the
greatest
of
all
b
blessings,
ye
that
hear
me;
and
ye
that
hear
me
not
will
I
c
curse,
that
have
d
professed
my
e
name,
with
the
heaviest
of
all
cursings.
2 Hearken,
O
ye
elders
of
my
church
whom
I
have
called,
behold
I
give
unto
you
a
commandment,
that
ye
shall
assemble
yourselves
together
to
a
agree
upon
my
word;
3 And
by
the
prayer
of
your
faith
ye
shall
receive
my
a
law,
that
ye
may
know
how
to
govern
my
b
church
and
have
all
things
right
before
me.
4 And
I
will
be
your
a
ruler
when
I
b
come;
and
behold,
I
come
quickly,
and
ye
shall
see
that
my
law
is
kept.
5 He
that
a
receiveth
my
b
law
and
c
doeth
it,
the
same
is
my
disciple;
and
he
that
saith
he
receiveth
it
and
d
doeth
it
not,
the
same
is
not
my
disciple,
and
shall
be
e
cast
out
from
among
you;
6 For
it
is
not
meet
that
the
things
which
belong
to
the
children
of
the
kingdom
should
be
given
to
them
that
are
not
worthy,
or
to
a
dogs,
or
the
b
pearls
to
be
cast
before
swine.
7 And
again,
it
is
meet
that
my
servant
Joseph
Smith,
Jun.,
should
have
a
a
house
built,
in
which
to
live
and
b
translate.
8 And
again,
it
is
meet
that
my
servant
Sidney
Rigdon
should
live
as
seemeth
him
good,
inasmuch
as
he
keepeth
my
commandments.
9 And
again,
I
have
called
my
servant
a
Edward
Partridge;
and
I
give
a
commandment,
that
he
should
be
appointed
by
the
voice
of
the
church,
and
ordained
a
b
bishop
unto
the
church,
to
leave
his
merchandise
and
to
c
spend
all
his
time
in
the
labors
of
the
church;
10 To
see
to
all
things
as
it
shall
be
appointed
unto
him
in
my
laws
in
the
day
that
I
shall
give
them.
11 And
this
because
his
heart
is
pure
before
me,
for
he
is
like
unto
a
Nathanael
of
old,
in
whom
there
is
no
b
guile.
12 These
words
are
given
unto
you,
and
they
are
pure
before
me;
wherefore,
beware
how
you
hold
them,
for
they
are
to
be
answered
upon
your
a
souls
in
the
day
of
judgment.
Even
so.
Amen.
