亚伯拉罕·克拉克是美国政治家、奴隶主和独立战争人物。他是新泽西州出席大陆会议的代表，在那里他签署了《独立宣言》，后来从1791年3月4日到1794年去世，在美国第二届和第三届国会中担任美国众议院议员。
Our fates are in the hands of An Almighty God, to whom I can with pleasure confide my own; he can save us, or destroy us; his Councils are fixed and cannot be disappointed, and all his designs will be Accomplished.
我们的命运掌握在全能的上帝手中，我可以欣然向他倾诉自己的命运；他可以拯救我们，也可以毁灭我们；他的议会是固定的，不能失望，他的所有设计都将完成。
As to my Title, I know not yet whether it will be honourable or dishonourable, the issue of the War must Settle it. Perhaps our Congress will be Exalted on a high Gallows.
至于我的头衔，我还不知道是光荣还是耻辱，战争的问题必须解决。也许我们的国会会被抬上高高的绞刑架。
I have the Pleasure to assure you Congress pay particular Attention to the Defence of New Jersey, and hitherto have denied us nothing which we have Asked for that Purpose.
我很高兴向你们保证，国会特别重视新泽西州的国防问题，迄今为止，我们没有为此提出任何要求。
