Unit 24
Segment 5 of 6 [#150]
Jacob Speaks to the Pure in Heart
Jacob 3:1 - Jacob 3:4
Duration: 1:06
Jacob 3:1
But behold, I, Jacob, would speak unto you that are pure in heart.
Look unto God with firmness of mind,
and pray unto him with exceeding faith,
and he will console you in your afflictions,
and he will plead your cause,
and send down justice upon those who seek your destruction.
Jacob 3:2
O all ye that are pure in heart,
lift up your heads and receive the pleasing word of God,
and feast upon his love;
for ye may, if your minds are firm, forever.
Jacob 3:3
But, wo, wo, unto you that are not pure in heart,
that are filthy this day before God;
for except ye repent the land is cursed for your sakes;
and the Lamanites, which are not filthy like unto you,
nevertheless they are cursed with a sore cursing,
shall scourge you even unto destruction.
Jacob 3:4
And the time speedily cometh, that except ye repent
they shall possess the land of your inheritance,
and the Lord God will lead away the righteous out from among you.
