And the hand of providence hath smiled upon you most pleasingly,

that you have obtained many riches;

and because some of you have obtained more abundantly

because of the costliness of your apparel,

and persecute your brethren

because ye suppose that ye are better than they.

Behold, ye have done greater iniquities than the Lamanites, our brethren.

Ye have broken the hearts of your tender wives,

which cometh down against you,

many hearts died, pierced with deep wounds.

O all ye that are pure in heart,

lift up your heads and receive the pleasing word of God,
