to your overthrow and destruction

if ye shall suffer these things to be.

For it cometh to pass that whoso buildeth it up

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

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.
