Jacob 2:9, 20,
Jacob 3:1
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 2:20
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 3:1
But behold, I, Jacob, would speak unto you that are pure in heart.
Look unto God with firmness of mind,
and pray unto him with exceeding faith,
and he will console you in your afflictions,
and he will plead your cause,
and send down justice upon those who seek your destruction.
