Jacob 2:7

And also it grieveth me that I must use so much boldness of speech

concerning you, before your wives and your children,

many of whose feelings are exceedingly tender and chaste and delicate before God,

which thing is pleasing unto God;



Jacob 2:12

And now behold, my brethren, this is the word which I declare unto you,

that many of you have begun to search for gold, and for silver,

and for all manner of precious ores,

in the which this land,

which is a land of promise unto you and to your seed,

doth abound most plentifully.



Jacob 2:21

Do ye not suppose that such things are abominable

unto him who created all flesh?

And the one being is as precious in his sight as the other.

And all flesh is of the dust;

and for the selfsame end hath he created them,

that they should keep his commandments and glorify him 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 3:7

Behold, their husbands love their wives,

and their wives love their husbands;

and their husbands and their wives love their children;

and their unbelief and their hatred towards you

is because of the iniquity of their fathers;

wherefore, how much better are you than they,

in the sight of your great Creator?



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 3:11

O my brethren, hearken unto my words;

arouse the faculties of your souls;

shake yourselves that ye may awake from the slumber of death;

and loose yourselves from the pains of hell

that ye may not become angels to the devil,

to be cast into that lake of fire and brimstone which is the second death.
