that one of these was the brother of Jared;

because of his word which he had spoken unto him,

which word he had obtained by faith.

And I said unto him:

Lord, the Gentiles will mock at these things,

because of our weakness in writing;

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

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.

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.

If they have not charity it mattereth not unto thee,

thou hast been faithful;

wherefore, thy garments shall be made clean.

thou shalt be made strong,

even unto the sitting down in the place

which I have prepared in the mansions of my Father.

Ether 12:40

And only a few have I written, because of my weakness in writing.
