Jacob 3:5
Jacob 2:34
And now behold, my brethren,
ye know that these commandments were given to our father, Lehi;
wherefore, ye have known them before;
and ye have come unto great condemnation;
for ye have done these things which ye ought not to have done.
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 3:5
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.
