Jacob 2:8, 9,

Jacob 3:2

Jacob 2:8

And it supposeth me that they have come up hither

to hear the pleasing word of God,

yea, the word which healeth the wounded soul.

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 3:2

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.
