Jacob 7:14, 26

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.

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.
