Jacob 7:9

Show me a sign by this power of the Holy Ghost,

Jacob 7:14

And I said unto him:

What am I that I should tempt God to show unto thee a sign

in the thing which thou knowest to be true?

Yet thou wilt deny it, because thou art of the devil.

Nevertheless, not my will be done;

but if God shall smite thee, let that be a sign unto thee

that he has power, both in heaven and in earth;

and also, that Christ shall come.

And thy will, O Lord, be done, and not mine.

Gather together on the morrow, for I shall die;

And he said:

I fear lest I have committed the unpardonable sin,

for I have lied unto God;

for I denied the Christ, and said that I believed the scriptures;

and they truly testify of him.

And because I have thus lied unto God

I greatly fear lest my case shall be awful;

but I confess unto God.

And I, Jacob, saw that I must soon go down to my grave;

wherefore, I said unto my son Enos:

Take these plates.

And I told him the things which my brother Nephi had commanded me,

and he promised obedience unto the commands.

And I make an end of my writing upon these plates,

which writing has been small;

and to the reader I bid farewell,

hoping that many of my brethren may read my words.

Brethren, adieu.
