Mosiah 1:2

And it came to pass that he had three sons;

and he called their names Mosiah, and Helorum, and Helaman.

And he caused that they should be taught in all the language of his fathers,

that thereby they might become men of understanding;

and that they might know concerning the prophecies

which had been spoken by the mouths of their fathers,

which were delivered them by the hand of the Lord.



Mosiah 1:4

For it were not possible

that our father, Lehi, could have remembered all these things,

to have taught them to his children,

except it were for the help of these plates;

for he having been taught in the language of the Egyptians

therefore he could read these engravings, and teach them to his children,

that thereby they could teach them to their children,

and so fulfilling the commandments of God,

even down to this present time.



Mosiah 1:10

Therefore, he had Mosiah brought before him;

and these are the words which he spake unto him, saying:

My son, I would that ye should make a proclamation

throughout all this land among all this people,

or the people of Zarahemla, and the people of Mosiah who dwell in the land,

that thereby they may be gathered together;

for on the morrow I shall proclaim unto this my people out of mine own mouth

that thou art a king and a ruler over this people,

whom the Lord our God hath given us.



Mosiah 1:11

And moreover, I shall give this people a name,

that thereby they may be distinguished above all the people

which the Lord God hath brought out of the land of Jerusalem;

and this I do because they have been a diligent people

in keeping the commandments of the Lord.



Mosiah 1:13

Yea, and moreover I say unto you, that

if this highly favored people of the Lord should fall into transgression,

and become a wicked and an adulterous people,

that the Lord will deliver them up,

that thereby they become weak like unto their brethren;

and he will no more preserve them by his matchless and marvelous power,

as he has hitherto preserved our fathers.



Mosiah 1:16

And moreover, he also gave him charge concerning the records

which were engraven on the plates of brass;

and also the plates of Nephi;

and also, the sword of Laban,

and the ball or director, which led our fathers through the wilderness,

which was prepared by the hand of the Lord

that thereby they might be led, every one

according to the heed and diligence which they gave unto him.



Mosiah 1:18

And now, it came to pass that

Mosiah went and did as his father had commanded him,

and proclaimed unto all the people who were in the land of Zarahemla

that thereby they might gather themselves together,

to go up to the temple to hear the words which his father should speak unto them.



Mosiah 2:6

And they pitched their tents round about the temple,

every man having his tent with the door thereof towards the temple,

that thereby they might remain in their tents

and hear the words which king Benjamin should speak unto them;



Mosiah 2:7

For the multitude being so great

that king Benjamin could not teach them all within the walls of the temple,

therefore he caused a tower to be erected,

that thereby his people might hear the words which he should speak unto them.



Mosiah 2:15

Yet, my brethren, I have not done these things that I might boast,

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

but I tell you these things that ye may know

that I can answer a clear conscience before God this day.



Mosiah 2:41

And moreover, I would desire

that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state

of those that keep the commandments of God.

For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual;

and if they hold out faithful to the end

they are received into heaven,

that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never–ending happiness.

O remember, remember that these things are true;

for the Lord God hath spoken it.



Mosiah 3:13

And the Lord God hath sent his holy prophets among all the children of men,

to declare these things to every kindred, nation, and tongue,

that thereby whosoever should believe that Christ should come,

the same might receive remission of their sins,

and rejoice with exceedingly great joy,

even as though he had already come among them.
