Jacob 1:7

Wherefore we labored diligently among our people,

that we might persuade them to come unto Christ,

and partake of the goodness of God,

lest by any means he should swear in his wrath they should not enter in,

as in the provocation in the days of temptation

while the children of Israel were in the wilderness.

Jacob 1:15

And now it came to pass that

the people of Nephi, under the reign of the second king,

began to grow hard in their hearts,

and indulge themselves somewhat in wicked practices,

such as like unto David of old

desiring many wives and concubines,

and also Solomon, his son.

Jacob 1:19

And we did magnify our office unto the Lord,

taking upon us the responsibility,

answering the sins of the people upon our own heads

if we did not teach them the word of God with all diligence;

wherefore, by laboring with our might

their blood might not come upon our garments;

otherwise their blood would come upon our garments,

and we would not be found spotless at the last day.
