Jacob 3:5

Behold, the Lamanites your brethren, whom ye hate

because of their filthiness and the cursing which hath come upon their skins,

are more righteous than you;

for they have not forgotten the commandment of the Lord,

which was given unto our father —

that they should have save it were one wife,

and concubines they should have none,

and there should not be whoredoms committed among them.

Jacob 3:9

Wherefore, a commandment I give unto you, which is the word of God,

that ye revile no more against them because of the darkness of their skins;

neither shall ye revile against them because of their filthiness;

but ye shall remember your own filthiness,

and remember that their filthiness came because of their fathers.

Jacob 3:10

Wherefore, ye shall remember your children,

how that ye have grieved their hearts

because of the example that ye have set before them;

and also, remember that ye may, because of your filthiness,

bring your children unto destruction,

and their sins be heaped upon your heads at the last day.
