Jacob 4:2, 3, 7



Jacob 4:2

But whatsoever things we write upon anything save it be upon plates

must perish and vanish away;

but we can write a few words upon plates,

which will give our children, and also our beloved brethren,

a small degree of knowledge concerning us, or concerning their fathers —



Jacob 4:3

Now in this thing we do rejoice;

and we labor diligently to engraven these words upon plates,

hoping that our beloved brethren and our children

will receive them with thankful hearts,

and look upon them that they may learn with joy

and not with sorrow, neither with contempt,

concerning their first parents.



Jacob 4:7

Nevertheless, the Lord God showeth us our weakness that we may know

that it is by his grace, and his great condescensions unto the children of men,

that we have power to do these things.
