Jacob 2:9, 10

Jacob 2:9

Wherefore, it burdeneth my soul that I should be constrained,

because of the strict commandment which I have received from God,

to admonish you according to your crimes,

to enlarge the wounds of those who are already wounded,

instead of consoling and healing their wounds;

and those who have not been wounded,

instead of feasting upon the pleasing word of God

have daggers placed to pierce their souls and wound their delicate minds.

Jacob 2:10

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.
