Yea, it grieveth my soul and causeth me to shrink with shame

before the presence of my Maker,

that I must testify unto you concerning the wickedness of your hearts.

Jacob 2:13

And the hand of providence hath smiled upon you most pleasingly,

that you have obtained many riches;

and because some of you have obtained more abundantly

than that of your brethren

ye are lifted up in the pride of your hearts, and wear stiff necks and high heads

because of the costliness of your apparel,

and persecute your brethren

because ye suppose that ye are better than they.

O that he would rid you from this iniquity and abomination.

And, O that ye would listen unto the word of his commands,

and let not this pride of your hearts destroy your souls!

Jacob 2:20

And now, my brethren, I have spoken unto you concerning pride;

and those of you which have afflicted your neighbor, and persecuted him

because ye were proud in your hearts, of the things which God hath given you,

what say ye of it?

Jacob 2:35

Behold, ye have done greater iniquities than the Lamanites, our brethren.

Ye have broken the hearts of your tender wives,

and lost the confidence of your children,

because of your bad examples before them;

and the sobbings of their hearts ascend up to God against you.

And because of the strictness of the word of God,

which cometh down against you,

many hearts died, pierced with deep wounds.

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.
