"On September 12, 1831, Joseph Smith and his family moved from Kirtland, Ohio, to Hiram, Ohio, about 30 miles southeast of Kirtland. They made this move in response to counsel from the Lord. The Prophet and his family moved in with the family of John and Alice Johnson, recent converts to the Church. A major reason for moving from Kirtland was to resume work on the inspired translation of the Bible. Once in Hiram, Joseph recommenced that work. On October 30, 1831, Joseph Smith received the revelation recorded in Doctrine and Covenants 65. In this revelation, the Lord taught that the gospel will go to every nation in preparation for the Second Coming of the Savior and that the Saints are to pray for the growth of the kingdom of God."
