Behold the formation of a church

and bringeth them down into captivity.

And after they go forth by the hand of the twelve apostles of the Lamb,

from the Jews unto the Gentiles,

thou seest the formation of that great and abominable church,

which is most abominable above all other churches;

many parts which are plain and most precious;

and also many covenants of the Lord have they taken away.

Nevertheless, thou beholdest that the Gentiles

who have gone forth out of captivity,

and have been lifted up by the power of God

above all other nations, upon the face of the land

which is choice above all other lands,

which is the land that the Lord God hath covenanted with thy father

that his seed should have for the land of their inheritance;

wherefore, thou seest that the Lord God will not suffer

that the Gentiles will utterly destroy the mixture of thy seed,

which are among thy brethren.
