they chose even the firstborn of the brother of Jared;

and his name was Pagag.

but his father would not;

and he commanded them

that they should constrain no man to be their king.

which were given by them of old who also sought power,

which had been handed down even from Cain,

who was a murderer from the beginning.

Ether 8:23

Wherefore, O ye Gentiles,

it is wisdom in God that these things should be shown unto you,

that thereby ye may repent of your sins,

and suffer not that these murderous combinations shall get above you,

which are built up to get power and gain —

and the work, yea, even the work of destruction come upon you,

yea, even the sword of the justice of the Eternal God shall fall upon you,

to your overthrow and destruction

if ye shall suffer these things to be.



Ether 8:25

For it cometh to pass that whoso buildeth it up

seeketh to overthrow the freedom of all lands, nations, and countries;

and it bringeth to pass the destruction of all people,

for it is built up by the devil, who is the father of all lies;

even that same liar who beguiled our first parents,

yea, even that same liar

who hath caused man to commit murder from the beginning;

who hath hardened the hearts of men

that they have murdered the prophets,

and stoned them, and cast them out from the beginning.
