  Speaker 1: Mormon chapter four up to the Book of Ether Mormon
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: chapter four. And now it came to pass that in
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: the three hundred and sixty and third year, the Nephites
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: did go up with their armies to battle against the
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Lamanites out of the land Desolation. And it came to
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: pass that the armies of the Nephites were driven back
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: again to the land of Desolation. And while they were
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: yet weary, a fresh army of the Lamanites did come
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: upon them, and they had a sore battle, insomuch that
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: the Lamanites did take possession of the city Desolation, and
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: did slay many of the Nephites, and did take many prisoners,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: and the remainder did flee and join the inhabitants of
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: the city Tiancum. Now the city Tiancum lay the borders
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: by the seashore, and it was also near the city Desolation.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: And it was because the armies of the Nephites went
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: up unto the Lamanites that they began to be smitten.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: For were it not for that, the Lamanites could have
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: had no power over them. But behold, the judgments of
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: God will overtake the wicked, And it is by the
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: wicked that the wicked are punished, for it is the
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: wicked that stir up the hearts of the children of
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: men unto bloodshed. And it came to pass that the
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Lamanites did make preparations to come against the city Tiancum,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: and it came to pass in the three one hundred
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: and sixty and fourth year the Lamanites did come against
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the city Tiancum, that they might take possession of the
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: city Tiancum also, and it came to pass that they
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: were pulsed and driven back by the Nephytes. And when
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: the Nephites saw that they had driven the Lamanites, they
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: did again boast of their own strength, and they went
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: forth in their own might and took possession again of
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: the city Desolation. And now all these things had been done,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and there had been thousands slain on both sides, both
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: the Nephytes and the Lamanites. And it came to pass
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: that the three hundred and sixty and sixth year had
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: passed away, and the Lamanites came again upon the Nephites
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: to battle. And yet the Nephites repented not of the
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: evil they had done, but persisted in their wickedness continually,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: and it is impossible for the tongue to describe, or
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: for man to write a perfect description of the horrible
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: scene of the blood and carnage which was among the people,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: both of the Nephites and of the Lamanites. And every
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: heart was hardened, so that they delighted in the shedding
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: of blood continually. And there never had been so great
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: wickedness among all the children of Lehi, nor even among
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: all the House of Israel, according to the words of
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: the Lord, as was among this people. And it came
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: to pass that the Lamanites did take possession of the
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: city Desolation, and this because their number did exceed the
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: number of the Nephites. And they did also march forward
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: against the city Tiancum, and did drive the inhabitants forth
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: out of her, and did take many prisoners, both women
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and children, and did offer them up as sacrifices unto
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: their idol gods. And it came to pass that in
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: the three one hundred and sixty and seventh year, the Nephtes,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: being angry because the Lamanites had sacrificed their women and
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: their children, that they did go against the Lamanites with
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: exceedingly great anger, insomuch that they did beat again the
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Lamanites and drive them out of their lands. And the
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Lamanites did not come again against the Nephytes until the
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: three one hundred and seventy and fifth year. And in
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: this year they did come down against the Knphtes with
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: all their powers, and they were not numbered because of
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: the greatness of their number. And from this time forth
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: did the Nephites gain no power over the Lamanites, but
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: began to be swept off by them, even as a
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: do before the sun. And it came to pass that
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the Lamanites did come down against the city Desolation, and
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: there was an exceedingly sore battle fought in the land Desolation,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: in which they did beat the Nephites, and they fled
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: again from before them, and they came to the city Boaz,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: and there they did stand against the Lamanites with exceeding boldness,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: insomuch that the Lamanites did not beat them until they
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: had come again the second time. And when they had
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: come the second time, the Nephites were driven and slaughtered
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: with an exceedingly great slaughter. Their women and their children
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: were again sacrificed unto idols, and it came to pass
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: that the Nephites did again flee from before them, taking
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: all the inhabitants with them, both in towns and villages.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: And now I Mormon, seeing that the Laymanis were about
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: to overthrow the land. Therefore I did go to the
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: hill Shim and did take up all the records which
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Amarn had hid up unto the Lord Mormon, Chapter five.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: And it came to pass that I did go forth
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: among the Nephites and did repent of the oath which
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I had made, that I would no more assist them.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: And they gave me command again of their armies. For
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: they looked upon me as though I could deliver them
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: from their afflictions. But behold, I was without hope, for
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: I knew the judgments of the Lord which should come
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: upon them. And they repented not of their iniquities, but
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: did struggle for their lives without calling upon that being
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: who created them. And it came to pass that the
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Lamanites did come against us, as we had fled to
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: the city of Jordan. But behold, they were driven back,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: that they did not take the city at that time.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: And it came to pass that they came against us again,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: and we did maintain the city. And there were also
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: other cities which were maintained by Nephites, which strongholds did
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: cut them off when they could not get into the
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: country which lay before us, to destroy the inhabitants of
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: our land. And it came to pass that whatsoever lands
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: we had passed by, and the inhabitants thereof were not
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: gathered in, were destroyed by the Lamanites, and their towns
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: and villages and cities were burned with fire. And thus
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: three hundred and seventy and nine years passed away, and
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: it came to pass that in the three hundred and
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: eightieth year, the Lamanites did come again against us to battle,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: and we did stand against them boldly, but it was
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: all in vain, for so great were their numbers that
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: they did tread the people of the Nephites under their feet.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: And it came to pass that we did again take
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: to flight, and those whose flight was swifter than the
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Lamanites did escape, and those whose flight did not exceed
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: the Lamanites were swept down and destroyed. And now behold,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I Mormon do not desire to harrow up the souls
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: of men in casting before them such an awful scene
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: of blood and carnage, as was laid before mine eyes.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: But I knowing that these things must surely be made known,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: and that all things which are hid must be revealed
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: upon the housetops. And also that a knowledge of these
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: things must come unto the remnant of this people, and
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: also unto the gentiles, who the Lord hath said should
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: scatter this people, and this people should be counted as
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: not among them. Therefore I write a small abridgment, daring
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: not to give a full account of the things which
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: I have seen, because of the commandment which I have received,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: and also that ye might not have too great sorrow
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: because of the wickedness of this people. And now behold
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: this I speak unto their seed, and also to the
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: gentiles who have care for the House of Israel, that
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: realize and know from whence their blessings come. For I
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: know that such will sorrow for the calamity of the
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: House of Israel. Yea, they will sorrow for the destruction
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: of this people. They will sorrow that this people had
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: not repented, that they might have been clasped in the
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: arms of Jesus. Now these things are written unto the
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: remnant of the House of Jacob. And they are written
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: after this manner, because it is known of God that
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: wickedness will not bring them forth unto them, And they
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: are to be hid up unto the Lord, that they
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: may come forth in his own due time. And this
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: is the commandment which I have received. And behold, they
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: shall come forth according to the commandment of the Lord,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: when he shall see fit in his wisdom. And behold
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: they shall go unto the unbelieving of the Jews. And
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: for this intent shall they go, that they may be
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: persuaded that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Living God, that the Father may bring about through his
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: most beloved, his great and an eternal purpose, in restoring
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: the Jews of all the House of Israel to the
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: land of their inheritance, which the Lord their God hath
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: given them unto the fulfilling of his covenant. And also
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: that the seed of this people may more fully believe
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: His gospel, which shall go forth unto them from the Gentiles.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: For this people shall be scattered and shall become a dark,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: a filthy, and a loathsome people beyond the description of
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: that whichever hath been amongst us, yea even that which
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: hath been among the Lamanites. And this because of their
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: unbelief and idolatry. For behold, the spirit of the Lord
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Hath already ceased to strive with their fathers. And they
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: are without Christ and God in the world, and they
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: are driven out as chaff before the wind. They were
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: once a delightsome people, and they had Christ for their shepherd. Yea,
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: they were led even by God the Father. But now behold,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: they are led about by Satan, even as chaff is
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: driven before the wind, or as a vessel is tossed
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: about upon the waves without sail or anchor, or without
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: anything wherewith to steer her. And even as she is,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: so are they. And behold, the Lord hath reserved their
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: blessings which they might have received in the land, for
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: the gentiles, who shall possess the land. But behold, it
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: shall come to pass that they shall be driven and
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: scattered by the gentiles. And after they have been driven
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: and scattered by the gentiles, Behold, then will the Lord
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: remember the covenant which he made aid unto Abraham and
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: unto all the house of Israel. And also the Lord
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: will remember the prayers of the righteous which have been
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: put up unto him for them. And then, oh, ye gentiles,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: how can ye stand before the power of God, except
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: ye shall repent and turn from your evil ways? Know
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: ye not that ye are in the hands of God,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Know ye not that He hath all power, and at
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: his great command the earth shall be rolled together as
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: a scroll. Therefore, repent ye and humble yourselves before Him,
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: lest he shall come out in justice against you, lest
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: a remnant of the seed of Jacob shall go forth
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: among you as a lion and tear you in pieces.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: And there is none to deliver Mormon chapter And now
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: I finish my record concerning the destruction of my people,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: the Nephites. And it came to pass that we did
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: march forth before the Lamanites. And I Mormon wrote an
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: epistle unto the King of the Lamanites, and desired of
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: him that he would grant unto us, that we might
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: gather together our people unto the land of Camorra by
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: a hill which was called Kimora, and there we could
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: give them battle. And it came to pass that the
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: King of the Lamanites did grant unto me the thing
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: which I desired. And it came to pass that we
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: did march forth to the land of Camorra, and we
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: did pitch our tents around about the hill Camora. And
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: it was in a land of many waters, rivers and fountains.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: And here we had hoped to gain advantage over the Lamanites.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: And when three hundred and eighty and four years had
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: passed away, we had gathered in all the remainder of
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: our people unto the land of Kimora. And it came
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: to pass that when we had gathered in all our
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: people in one to the land of Camora, behold, I Mormon,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: began to be old, and knowing it to be the
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: last struggle of my people, and having been commanded of
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: the Lord, that I should not suffer the records which
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: had been handed down by our fathers, which were sacred,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: to fall into the hands of the Lamanites, for the
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Lamanites would destroy them. Therefore I made this record out
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: of the plates of Nephi, and hid up in the
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: hill Camorra. All the records which had been entrusted to
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: me by the hand of the Lord. Save it worth
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: these few plates which I gave unto my son Moroni.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: And it came to pass that my people, with their
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: wives and their children. Did now behold the armies of
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: the Lamanites marching towards them, And with that awful fear
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: of death which fills the breasts of all the wicked,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: did they await to receive them. And it came to
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: pass that they came to battle against us, And every
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: soul was filled with terror because of the greatness of
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: their numbers. And it came to pass that they did
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: fall upon my people with the sword, and with the bow,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: and with the arrow, and with the axe, and with
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: all manner of weapons of war. And it came to
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: pass that my men were hewn down. Yea, even my
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: ten thousand who were with me and I fell wounded
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: in the midst and they passed by me, that they
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: did not put an end to my life. And when
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: they had gone through and hewn down all my people
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: save it were twenty and four of us, among whom
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: was my son Moroni. And we, having survived the dead
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: of our people, did behold on the morrow, when the
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Lamanites had returned unto their camps, from the top of
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: the hill Camora, the ten thousand of my people who
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: were hewn down, being led in the front by me,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: and we also beheld the ten thousand of my people
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: who were led by my son Moroni. And behold, the
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: ten thousand of Gidgidona had fallen, and he also in
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: the midst and Laima had fallen with his ten thousand,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: and Gilgal had fallen with his ten thousand, and Limha
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: had fallen with his ten thousand, and Genium had fallen
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: with his ten thousand. And Kumniha and Moroniha, and Antionum
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: and Shiblom and Shem and Josh had fallen with their
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: ten thousand each. And it came to pass that there
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: were ten more who did fall by the sword with
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: their ten thousand each. Yea, even all my people save
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: it were those twenty and four who were with me,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: And also a few who had escaped into the south countries,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: and a few who had deserted over unto the Lamanites
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: had fallen. And their flesh and bones and blood lay
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: upon the face of the earth, being left by the
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: hands of those who slew them to molder upon the
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: land and to crumble, and to return to their mother earth.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: And my soul was rent with anguish because of the
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: slain of my people. And I cried, oh ye fair ones,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: How could ye have departed from the ways of the Lord? Oh, ye,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: fair ones, how could ye have rejected that Jesus, who
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: stood with open arms to receive you. Behold, if ye
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: had not done this, ye would not have fallen. But behold,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: ye are fallen. And I mourn your loss. Oh ye
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: fair sons and daughters, Ye fathers and mothers, Ye husbands
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: and wives. Ye, fair ones, how is it that ye
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: could have fallen? But behold, ye are gone, And my
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: sorrows cannot bring your return. And the day soon cometh
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: that your mortal must put on immortality. And these bodies,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: which are now moldering in corruption, must soon become incorruptible bodies.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: And then ye must stand before the judgment seed of Christ,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: to be judged according to your works. And if it
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: so be that ye are righteous, then are ye blessed
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: with your fathers who have gone before you. Oh that
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: ye had repented before this great destruction had come upon you.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: But behold, ye are gone. And the Father, YEA, the
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: eternal Father of Heaven, knoweth your state, and he doeth
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: with you according to his justice and mercy Mormon chapter seven.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: And now behold, I would speak somewhat unto the remnant
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: of this people who are spared, if it so be
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: that God may give unto them my words, that they
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: may know of the things of their fathers. Yea I
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: speak unto you, ye remnant of the House of Israel,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: And these are the words which I speak. Know ye
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: that ye are of the House of Israel. Know ye
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: that ye must come unto repentance, or ye cannot be saved.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Know ye that ye must lay down your weapons of war,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: and delight no more in the shedding of blood, and
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: take them not again, save it be that God shall
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: command you. Know ye that ye must come to the
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: knowledge of your fathers, and repent of all your sins
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: and iniquities. And believe in Jesus Christ, that he is
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: the son of God, and that he was slain by
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: the Jews, and by the power of the Father. He
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: hath risen again, whereby he hath gained the victory over
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: the grave. And also in him is the sting of
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: death swallowed up. And he bringeth to pass the resurrection
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: of the dead, whereby man must be raised to stand
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: before his judgment seat. And he hath brought to pass
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: the redemption of the world, whereby he that is found
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: guiltless before him at the judgment day, hath it given
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: unto him to dwell in the presence of God in
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: his kingdom, to sing ceaseless praises with the choirs above,
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: unto the Father and unto the Son, and unto the
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Holy Ghost, which are one God, in a state of
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: happiness which hath no end. Therefore, repent and be baptized
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: in the name of Jesus, and lay hold upon the
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Gospel of Christ, which shall be set by for you,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: not only in this record, but also in the record
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: which shall come unto the Gentiles from the Jews, which
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: records shall come from the Gentiles unto you. For behold,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: this is written for the intent that ye may believe that.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: And if ye believe that, ye will believe this also.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: And if you believe this, ye will know concerning your
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: father's and also the marvelous works which were wrought by
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: the power of God among them. And ye will also
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: know that ye are a remnant of the seed of Jacob.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Therefore ye are numbered among the people of the First Covenant.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: And if it so be that ye believe in Christ
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: and are baptized first with water, then with fire and
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: with the Holy Ghost, following the example of our Savior,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: according to that which he hath commanded us, it shall
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: be well with you in the day of judgment, Amen,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Mormon chapter eight. Behold, I Moronai, do finish the record
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: of my father Mormon. Behold, I have but few things
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: to write, which things I have been commanded by my father.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: And now it came to pass that after the great
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: and tremendous battle at Kimora. Behold, the Nephites, who had
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: escaped into the country southward, were hunted by the Lamanites
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: until they were all destroyed, and my father also was
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: killed by them. And I even remain alone to write
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: the sad tale of the destruction of my people. But behold,
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: they are gone, and I fulfill the commandment of my father.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: And whether they slay me I know not. Therefore I
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: will write and hide up the records in the earth,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: and whither I go it mattereth not. Behold, my father
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: hath made this record, and he hath written the intent thereof,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: And behold, I would write it also if I had
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: room upon the plates. But I have not, and or
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: I have none, for I am alone. My father hath
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: been slain in battle, and all my kinsfolk, and I
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: have not friends, nor whither to go. And how long
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: the Lord will suffer that I may live, I know not. Behold,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: four hundred years have passed away since the coming of
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: our Lord and Savior. And behold, the Lamanites have hunted
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: my people, the Nephites, down from city to city and
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: from place to place, even until they are no more.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: And great has been their fall. Yea, great and marvelous
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: is the destruction of my people, the Nephites. And behold
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: it is the hand of the Lord which hath done it.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: And behold also the Lamanites are at war one with another,
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: and the whole face of this land is one continual
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: round of murder and bloodshed, and no one knoweth the
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: end of the war. And now behold, I say no
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: more concerning them, for there are none save it be
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: the Lamanites and robbers that do exist upon the face
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: of the land. And there are none that do know
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: the True God, save it be the disciples of Jesus,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: who did tarry in the land until the wickedness of
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: the people was so great that the Lord would not
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: suffer them to remain with the people, and whether they
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: be upon the face of the land, no man knoweth.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: But behold, my father and I have seen them, and
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: they have ministered unto us. And whoso receiveth this record
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: and shall not condemn it because of the imperfections which
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: are in it, the same shall know of greater things
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: than these. Behold, I am Moronai, and were it possible,
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: I would make all things known unto you. Behold, I
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: make an end of speaking concerning this people. I am
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: the son of Mormon, and my father was a descendant
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: of Nephi. And I am the same who hideth up
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: this record unto the Lord. The plates thereof are of
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: no worth because of the commandment of the Lord, for
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: he truly saith that no one shall have them to
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: get gain. But the record thereof is of great worth.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: And whoso shall bring it to light him will the
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Lord bless for none can have power to bring it
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: to light, save it be given him of God. For
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: God gives that it shall be done with an eye
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: single to His glory or the welfare of the ancient
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: and long dispersed covenant people of the Lord. And blessed
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: be he that shall bring this thing to light. For
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: it shall be brought out of darkness unto light, according
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: to the word of God. Yeay, it shall be brought
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: out of the earth, and it shall shine forth out
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: of darkness and come unto the knowledge of the people.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: And it shall be done by the power of God.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: And if there be faults, they be the faults of
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: a man. But behold, we know no fault. Nevertheless, God,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: God knoweth all things. Therefore, he that condemneth, let him
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: be aware, lest he shall be in danger of hell fire.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: And he that saith show unto me, or ye shall
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: be smitten. Let him beware, lest he commandeth that which
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: is forbidden of the Lord. For behold, the same that
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: judgeth rashly shall be judged rashly again. For according to
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: his works shall his wages be. Therefore, he that smiteth
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: shall be smitten again of the Lord. Behold what the
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: scripture says, men shall not smite, neither shall he judge.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: For judgment is mine, saith the Lord. And vengeance is
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: mine also. And I will repay. And he that shall
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: breathe out wrath and strifes against the work of the
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Lord and against the covenant people the Lord, who are
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: the House of Israel, and shall say, we will destroy
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: the work of the Lord. And the Lord will not
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: remember his covenant which he hath made unto the House
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: of Israel. The same is in danger to be hewn
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: down and cast into the fire. For the eternal purposes
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: of the Lord shall roll on until all his promises
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: shall be fulfilled. Search the prophecies of Isaiah. Behold, I
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: cannot write them. Yea. Behold, I say unto you that
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: those saints who have gone before me, who have possessed
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: this land, shall cry. Yea, even from the dust will
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: they cry unto the Lord. And as the Lord liveth,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: he will remember the covenant which he hath made with them.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: And he knoweth their prayers, that they were in behalf
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: of their brethren, and he knoweth their faith. For in
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: his name could they remove mountains, And in his name
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: could they cause the earth to shake. And by the
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: power of His word did they cause prisons to tumble
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: to the earth. Yea, even as the fiery furnace could
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: not harm them, neither wild beasts nor poisonous serpents, because
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: of the power of His word. And behold, their prayers
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: were also in behalf of Him. That the Lord should
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: suffer to bring these things forth, And no one need
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: say they shall not come, for they surely shall, for
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: the Lord hath spoken it. For out of the earth
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: shall they come, by the hand of the Lord. And
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: none can stay it. And it shall come in a
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: day when it shall be said that miracles are done away.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: And it shall come even as if one should speak
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: from the dead. And it shall come in a day
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: when the blood of saints shall cry unto the Lord
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: because of the secret combinations and the works of darkness. Yay,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: it shall come in a day when the power of
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: God shall be denied, and churches become defiled and be
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: lifted up in the pride of their hearts. Yay, even
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: in a day when leaders of churches and teachers shall
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: rise in the pride of their hearts, even to the
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: envying of them who belong to their churches. Yay. It
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: shall come in a day when there shall be heard
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: of fires and tempests and vapors of smoke in foreign lands,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: and there shall also be heard of wars, rumors of wars,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: and earthquakes in diverse places. Yay, it shall come in
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: a day when there shall be great pollutions upon the
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: face of the earth. There shall be murders and robbing,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: and lying, and deceivings, and horedoms, and all manner of abominations.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: When there shall be many who will say, do this
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: or do that, And it mattereth not, for the Lord
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: will uphold such at the last day. But woe unto such,
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: for they are in the gall of bitterness and in
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: the bonds of iniquity. Yea, it shall come in a
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: day when there shall be churches built up that shall say,
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: come unto me, and for your money, you shall be
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: forgiven of your sins. Oh, ye wicked and perverse and
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: stiff necked people. Why have ye built up churches unto
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: your cells to get gain? Why have ye transfigured the
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: Holy Word of God? That ye might bring damnation upon
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: your souls. Behold, look ye unto the revelations of God.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: For behold, the time cometh at that day when all
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: these things must be fulfilled. Behold, the Lord hath shown
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: unto me great and marvelous things concerning that which must
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: shortly come. At that day when these things shall come
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: forth among you. Behold, I speak unto you as if
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: ye were present, and yet ye are not. But Behold,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ hath shown you unto me, and I know
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: your doing, and I know that ye do walk in
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: the pride of your hearts. And there are none save
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: a few only, who do not lift themselves up in
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: the pride of their hearts. Unto the wearing of ye
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: fine apparel, unto envying and strifes, and malice and persecutions,
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: and all manner of iniquities. And your churches, yea, even
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: everyone have become polluted because of the pride of your hearts.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: For behold, ye do love money and your substance, and
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: your fine apparel, and the adorning of your churches, more
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: than ye love the poor and the needy, the sick
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: and the afflicted. Oh, ye pollutions, ye hypocrites, ye teachers,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: who sell yourselves for that which will canker. Why have
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: ye polluted the Holy Church of God? Why are ye
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: ashamed to take upon you the name of Christ? Why
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: do ye not think that greater is the value of
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: an endless happiness than that misery which never die because
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: of the praise of the world. Why do ye adorn
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: yourselves with that which hath no life, and yet suffer
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: the hungry and the needy, and the naked, and the
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: sick and the afflicted, to pass by you and notice
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: them not, yea, why do ye build up your secret
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: abominations to get gain and cause that widows should mourn
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: before the Lord, and also orphans to mourn before the Lord,
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: and also the blood of their fathers and their husbands
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: to cry unto the Lord from the ground for vengeance
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: upon your heads. Behold, the sword of vengeance hangeth over you.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: And the time soon cometh that he avengeth the blood
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: of the saints upon you, for he will not suffer
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: their cries any longer. Mormon, chapter nine. And now I
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: speak also concerning those who do not believe in Christ. Behold,
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: will ye believe in the day of your visitation? Behold
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: when the Lord shall come? Yea, even that great day
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: when the earth shall be rolled together as a scroll,
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: and the elements shall melt with fervent heat. YEA. In
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: that great day, when ye shall be brought to stand
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: before the lamb of God. Then will ye say that
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: there is no God? Then will ye longer deny the Christ?
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Or can ye behold the Lamb of God? Do ye
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: suppose that ye shall dwell with Him under a consciousness
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: of your guilt. Do ye suppose that ye could be
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: happy to dwell with that Holy being when your souls
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: are racked with a consciousness of guilt that ye have
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: ever abused His laws. Behold, I say unto you that
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: ye would be more miserable to dwell with a holy
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: and just God under a consciousness of your filthiness before Him,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: than ye would to dwell with the damned souls in hell.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: For behold, when ye shall be brought to see your
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: nakedness before God and also the glory of God and
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: the holiness of Jesus Christ, it will kindle a flame
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: of unquenchable fire upon you. Oh, then ye unbelieving, turn
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: ye unto the Lord, cry mightily unto the Father in
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: the name of Jesus, that perhaps ye may be found spotless, pure,
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: fair and white, having been cleansed by the blood of
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: the Lamb at that great and last day. And again
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: I speak unto you who deny the revelations of God
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: and say that they are done away, that there are
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: no revelations, nor prophecies, nor gifts, nor healing, nor speaking
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: with tongues and the interpretation of tongues. Behold, I say
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: unto you, he that denieth these things knoweth not the
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: Gospel of Christ. Yea, he has not read the scriptures.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: If so, he does not understand them. For do we
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: not read that God is the same yesterday, today and forever,
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: and in him there is no variableness, neither shadow of changing.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: And Now, if ye have imagined up unto yourselves a
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: God who doth vary, and in whom there is shadow
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: of changing, then have ye imagined up unto yourselves a
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: God who is not God of miracles. But behold, I
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: will show unto you a god of miracles, even the
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: God of Jacob. And it is that same God who
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: created the heavens and the earth and all things that
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: in them are. Behold, he created Adam, and by Adam
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: came the fall of man. And because of the fall
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: of man came Jesus Christ, even the Father and the Son.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: And because of Jesus Christ came the redemption of man.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: And because of the redemption of man which came by
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, they are brought back into the presence of
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: the Lord. Yea, this is wherein all men are redeemed,
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: because the death of Christ bringeth to pass the resurrection,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: which bringeth to pass, a redemption from an endless sleep,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: from which sleep all men shall be awakened by the
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: power of God. When the trumph shall sound, and they
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: shall come forth, both small and great, and all shall
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: stand before His bar, being redeemed and loose from this
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: eternal band of death, which death is a temporal death.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: And then cometh the judgment of the Holy One upon them.
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: And then cometh the time that he that is filthy
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: shall be filthy still, and he that is righteous shall
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: be righteous still. He that is happy shall be happy still,
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: and he that is unhappy shall be unhappy still. And now, oh,
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: all ye that have imagined up unto yourselves a God
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: who can do no miracles, I would ask of you,
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: have all these things passed of which I have spoken?
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: Has the end come yet? Behold? I say unto you, nay.
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: And God has not ceased to be a god of miracle. Behold,
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: are not the things that God hath wrought marvelous in
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: our eyes? Yea? And who can comprehend the marvelous works
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: of God? Who shall say that it was not a
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: miracle that by his word the heaven and the earth
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: should be. And by the power of his word man
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: was created of the dust of the earth. And by
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: the power of his word have miracles been wrought? And
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: who shall say that Jesus Christ did not many mighty miracles?
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: And there were many mighty miracles wrought by the hands
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: of the apostles. And if there were miracles wrought, then
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: why has God ceased to be a god of miracles
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: and yet be an unchangeable being? And behold, I say
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: unto you, he changeth not, if so he would cease
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: to be God. And he ceaseth not to be God,
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: and is a God of miracles. And the reason why
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: he ceaseth to do miracles among the children of men
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: is because that they dwindle in unbelief and depart from
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: the right way, and know not the God in whom
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: they should trust. Behold, I say unto you that whoso
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: believeth in Christ, doubting nothing whatsoever, he shall ask the
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: Father in the name of Christ, it shall be granted him.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: And this promise is unto all, even unto the ends
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: of the earth. For behold, thus said Jesus Christ, the
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: Son of God, unto his disciples, who should tarry yea
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: and also to all his disciples in the hearing of
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: the multitude. Go ye into all the world, and preach
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: the Gospel to every creature. And he that believeth and
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: is baptized shall be saved. But he that believeth not
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: shall be damned. And these signs shall follow. Them that
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: believe in my name. Shall they cast out devils, They
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: shall speak with new tongues. They shall take up serpents,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: hurt them. They shall lay hands on the sick, and
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: they shall recover. And whosoever shall believe in my name,
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: doubting nothing unto him, will I confirm all my words,
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: even unto the ends of the earth. And now behold,
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: who can stand against the works of the Lord, Who
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: can deny his sayings, Who will rise up against the
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: almighty power of the Lord, Who will despise the works
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: of the Lord, who will despise the children of Christ.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: Behold all ye, ye who are despisers of the works
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: of the Lord, For ye shall wonder and perish. Oh,
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: then despise not and wonder not. But hearken unto the
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: words of the Lord, and ask the Father in the
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: name of Jesus, for what things soever ye shall stand
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: in need. Doubt not, but be believing, and begin as
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: in times of old, and come unto the Lord with
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: all your heart, and work out your own salvation with
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: fear and trembling before him. Be wise in the days
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: of your probation, strip yourselves of all uncleanness. Ask not
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: that ye may consume it on your lusts, but ask
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: with a firmness, unshaken, that ye will yield to no temptation,
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: but that ye will serve the True and Living God.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: See that ye are not baptized unworthily, See that ye
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: partake not of the sacrament of Christ unworthily. But see
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: that ye do all things in worthiness, and do it
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: in the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of the
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: Living God. And if ye do this and endure to
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: the end, ye will in no wise be cast out. Behold,
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: I speak unto you as though I spake from the dead,
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: For I know that ye shall have my words. Condemn
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: me not because of mine imperfection, neither my Father because
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: of his imperfection, neither them who have written before him.
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: But rather give thanks unto God that he hath made
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: manifest unto you our imperfections, that ye may learn to
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: be more wise than we have been. And now behold,
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: we have written this record according to our knowledge, in
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: the characters which are called among us the Reformed Egyptian
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: being handed down and altered by us according to our
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: manner of speech. And if our plates had been sufficiently large,
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: we should have written in Hebrew. But the Hebrew hath
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: been altered by us also. And if we could have
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: written in Hebrew, behold, ye would have had no imperfection
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: in our record. But the Lord knoweth the things which
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: we have written, and also that none other people knoweth
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: our language. And because that none other people knoweth our language,
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: therefore he hath prepared means for the interpretation thereof. And
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: these things are written that we may rid our garments
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: of the blood of our brethren who have dwindled in unbelief.
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: And behold, these things which we have desired concerning our brethren, yea,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: even their restoration to the nulge of Christ, are according
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: to the prayers of all the saints who have dwelt
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: in the land. And may the Lord Jesus Christ grant
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: that their prayers may be answered according to their faith.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: And may God the Father remember the covenant which he
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: hath made with the House of Israel, and may He
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: bless them forever through faith on the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
