or that ye should think that I of myself am more than a mortal man.



Mosiah 2:11

But I am like as yourselves,

subject to all manner of infirmities in body and mind;

yet I have been chosen by this people,

and consecrated by my father,

and was suffered by the hand of the Lord

that I should be a ruler and a king over this people;

and have been kept and preserved by his matchless power,

to serve you with all the might, mind and strength

which the Lord hath granted unto me.



Mosiah 2:14

And even I, myself, have labored with mine own hands that I might serve you,

and that ye should not be laden with taxes,

and that there should nothing come upon you which was grievous to be borne —

and of all these things which I have spoken,

ye yourselves are witnesses this day.



Mosiah 2:15

neither do I tell these things that thereby I might accuse you;

I do not desire to boast,

for I have only been in the service of God.

and am about to yield up this mortal frame to its mother earth.



Mosiah 2:27

Therefore, as I said unto you

that I had served you, walking with a clear conscience before God,

even so I at this time have caused that ye should assemble yourselves together,

that I might be found blameless,

and that your blood should not come upon me,

when I shall stand to be judged of God of the things

whereof he hath commanded me concerning you.



Mosiah 2:28

I say unto you that I have caused that ye should assemble yourselves together

that I might rid my garments of your blood,

at this period of time when I am about to go down to my grave,

that I might go down in peace,

and my immortal spirit may join the choirs above

in singing the praises of a just God.

that I might declare unto you

that I can no longer be your teacher, nor your king;

For even at this time, my whole frame doth tremble exceedingly

while attempting to speak unto you;

but the Lord God doth support me,

and hath suffered me that I should speak unto you,

and hath commanded me that I should declare unto you this day,

that my son Mosiah is a king and a ruler over you.
