Jacob 7:5, 17, 23, 26



Jacob 7:5

And he had hope to shake me from the faith,

notwithstanding the many revelations

and the many things which I had seen concerning these things;

for I truly had seen angels, and they had ministered unto me.

And also, I had heard the voice of the Lord speaking unto me

in very word, from time to time;

wherefore, I could not be shaken.



Jacob 7:17

And it came to pass that on the morrow the multitude were gathered together;

and he spake plainly unto them and denied the things which he had taught them,

and confessed the Christ, and the power of the Holy Ghost,

and the ministering of angels.



Jacob 7:23

And it came to pass that

peace and the love of God was restored again among the people;

and they searched the scriptures,

and hearkened no more to the words of this wicked man.



Jacob 7:26

And it came to pass that I, Jacob, began to be old;

and the record of this people being kept on the other plates of Nephi,

wherefore, I conclude this record,

declaring that I have written according to the best of my knowledge,

by saying that the time passed away with us,

and also our lives passed away like as it were unto us a dream,

we being a lonesome and a solemn people,

wanderers, cast out from Jerusalem,

born in tribulation, in a wilderness,

and hated of our brethren, which caused wars and contentions;

wherefore, we did mourn out our days.
