Jacob 2:3, 4, 9

Jacob 2:3

And ye yourselves know that I have hitherto been diligent

in the office of my calling;

but I this day am weighed down

with much more desire and anxiety for the welfare of your souls

than I have hitherto been.

Jacob 2:4

For behold, as yet, ye have been obedient

unto the word of the Lord, which I have given unto you.

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.
