But, notwithstanding the greatness of the task,

I must do according to the strict commands of God,

and tell you concerning your wickedness and abominations,

in the presence of the pure in heart, and the broken heart,

and under the glance of the piercing eye of the Almighty God.

And were it not that I must speak unto you concerning a grosser crime,

my heart would rejoice exceedingly because of you.

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.

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.

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.
