Ether 12:23, 24, 25, 35



Ether 12:23

And I said unto him:

Lord, the Gentiles will mock at these things,

because of our weakness in writing;

for Lord thou hast made us mighty in word by faith,

but thou hast not made us mighty in writing;

for thou hast made all this people

that they could speak much, because of the Holy Ghost

which thou hast given them;



Ether 12:24

And thou hast made us that we could write but little,

because of the awkwardness of our hands.

Behold, thou hast not made us mighty in writing

like unto the brother of Jared,

for thou madest him that the things which he wrote were mighty

even as thou art,

unto the overpowering of man to read them.



Ether 12:25

Thou hast also made our words powerful and great,

even that we cannot write them;

wherefore, when we write

we behold our weakness, and stumble because of the placing of our words;

and I fear lest the Gentiles shall mock at our words.



Ether 12:35

Wherefore, I know by this thing which thou hast said,

that if the Gentiles have not charity, because of our weakness,

that thou wilt prove them, and take away their talent,

yea, even that which they have received,

and give unto them who shall have more abundantly.
