Wherefore, hearken, O my people, which are of the house of Israel,

and give ear unto my words;

for because the words of Isaiah are not plain unto you,

nevertheless they are plain unto all those that are filled with the spirit of prophecy.

But I give unto you a prophecy, according to the spirit which is in me;

unto my children,

according to all that which Isaiah hath spoken,

and I do not write them.

and the Lord God hath scourged them

by other nations for the space of many generations,

until they shall be persuaded to believe in Christ, the Son of God,

and the atonement, which is infinite for all mankind —

and when that day shall come that they shall believe in Christ,

and look not forward any more for another Messiah,

then, at that time, the day will come

that it must needs be expedient that they should believe these things.
