Mosiah 1:3

And he also taught them concerning the records

which were engraven on the plates of brass, saying:

My sons, I would that ye should remember

that were it not for these plates,

which contain these records and these commandments,

we must have suffered in ignorance, even at this present time,

not knowing the mysteries of God.

Mosiah 1:5

I say unto you, my sons,

were it not for these things,

which have been kept and preserved by the hand of God,

that we might read and understand of his mysteries,

and have his commandments always before our eyes,

that even our fathers would have dwindled in unbelief,

and we should have been like unto our brethren, the Lamanites,

who know nothing concerning these things,

or even do not believe them when they are taught them,

because of the traditions of their fathers, which are not correct.

Mosiah 1:6

O my sons, I would that ye should remember

that these sayings are true,

and also that these records are true.

And behold, also the plates of Nephi,

which contain the records and the sayings of our fathers

from the time they left Jerusalem until now,

and they are true;

and we can know of their surety

because we have them before our eyes.

Mosiah 1:7

And now, my sons, I would that ye should remember to search them diligently,

that ye may profit thereby;

and I would that ye should keep the commandments of God,

that ye may prosper in the land

according to the promises which the Lord made unto our fathers.

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 1:12

And I give unto them a name that never shall be blotted out,

except it be through transgression.

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 1:14

For I say unto you,

that if he had not extended his arm in the preservation of our fathers

they must have fallen into the hands of the Lamanites,

and become victims to their hatred.

Mosiah 2:9

And these are the words which he spake and caused to be written, saying:

My brethren, all ye that have assembled yourselves together,

you that can hear my words which I shall speak unto you this day;

for I have not commanded you to come up hither

to trifle with the words which I shall speak,

but that you should hearken unto me,

and open your ears that ye may hear,

and your hearts that ye may understand,

and your minds that the mysteries of God may be unfolded to your view.

Mosiah 2:10

I have not commanded you to come up hither that ye should fear me,

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 2:12

I say unto you that as I have been suffered

to spend my days in your service, even up to this time,

and have not sought gold nor silver

nor any manner of riches of you;

Mosiah 2:13

Neither have I suffered that ye should be confined in dungeons,

nor that ye should make slaves one of another,

nor that ye should murder, or plunder, or steal, or commit adultery;

nor even have I suffered that ye should commit any manner of wickedness,

and have taught you that ye should keep the commandments of the Lord,

in all things which he hath commanded you—

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

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 2:16

Behold, I say unto you that

because I said unto you that I had spent my days in your service,

I do not desire to boast,

for I have only been in the service of God.

Mosiah 2:17

And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom;

that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings

ye are only in the service of your God.

Mosiah 2:18

Behold, ye have called me your king;

and if I, whom ye call your king, do labor to serve you,

then ought not ye to labor to serve one another?

Mosiah 2:19

And behold also, if I, whom ye call your king,

who has spent his days in your service,

and yet has been in the service of God,

do merit any thanks from you,

O how you ought to thank your heavenly King!

Mosiah 2:20

I say unto you, my brethren,

that if you should render all the thanks and praise

which your whole soul has power to possess,

to that God who has created you,

and has kept and preserved you,

and has caused that ye should rejoice,

and has granted that ye should live in peace one with another —

Mosiah 2:21

I say unto you that

if ye should serve him who has created you from the beginning,

and is preserving you from day to day, by lending you breath,

that ye may live and move and do according to your own will,

and even supporting you from one moment to another —

I say, if ye should serve him with all your whole souls

yet ye would be unprofitable servants.

Mosiah 2:25

And now I ask,

can ye say aught of yourselves?

I answer you, Nay.

Ye cannot say that ye are even as much as the dust of the earth;

yet ye were created of the dust of the earth;

but behold, it belongeth to him who created you.

Mosiah 2:26

And I, even I, whom ye call your king, am no better than ye yourselves are;

for I am also of the dust.

And ye behold that I am old,

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.

Mosiah 2:29

And moreover, I say unto you

that I have caused that ye should assemble yourselves together,

that I might declare unto you

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

Mosiah 2:30

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.

Mosiah 2:31

And now, my brethren, I would that ye should do as ye have hitherto done.

As ye have kept my commandments,

and also the commandments of my father,

and have prospered, and have been kept

from falling into the hands of your enemies,

even so if ye shall keep the commandments of my son,

or the commandments of God which shall be delivered unto you by him,

ye shall prosper in the land,

and your enemies shall have no power over you.

Mosiah 2:34

I say unto you, that there are not any among you,

except it be your little children

that have not been taught concerning these things,

but what knoweth that ye are eternally indebted to your heavenly Father,

to render to him all that you have and are;

and also have been taught concerning the records

which contain the prophecies which have been spoken by the holy prophets,

even down to the time our father, Lehi, left Jerusalem;

Mosiah 2:36

And now, I say unto you, my brethren,

that after ye have known and have been taught all these things,

if ye should transgress and go contrary to that which has been spoken,

that ye do withdraw yourselves from the Spirit of the Lord,

that it may have no place in you to guide you in wisdom's paths

that ye may be blessed, prospered, and preserved—

Mosiah 2:37

I say unto you, that the man that doeth this,

the same cometh out in open rebellion against God;

therefore he listeth to obey the evil spirit,

and becometh an enemy to all righteousness;

therefore, the Lord has no place in him,

for he dwelleth not in unholy temples.

Mosiah 2:39

And now I say unto you, that mercy hath no claim on that man;

therefore his final doom is to endure a never–ending torment.

Mosiah 2:40

O, all ye old men, and also ye young men,

and you little children who can understand my words,

for I have spoken plainly unto you that ye might understand,

I pray that ye should awake to a remembrance of the awful situation

of those that have fallen into transgression.

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 3:1

And again my brethren, I would call your attention,

for I have somewhat more to speak unto you;

for behold, I have things to tell you concerning that which is to come.

Mosiah 3:2

And the things which I shall tell you

are made known unto me by an angel from God.

And he said unto me:

Awake;

and I awoke,

and behold he stood before me.

Mosiah 3:3

And he said unto me:

Awake, and hear the words which I shall tell thee;

for behold, I am come to declare unto you the glad tidings of great joy.

Mosiah 3:16

And even if it were possible that little children could sin

they could not be saved;

but I say unto you

they are blessed;

for behold, as in Adam, or by nature, they fall,

even so the blood of Christ atoneth for their sins.

Mosiah 3:17

And moreover, I say unto you,

that there shall be no other name given nor any other way nor means

whereby salvation can come unto the children of men,

only in and through the name of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent.

Mosiah 3:20

And moreover, I say unto you,

that the time shall come when the knowledge of a Savior shall spread

throughout every nation, kindred, tongue, and people.

Mosiah 3:22

And even at this time, when thou shalt have taught thy people the things

which the Lord thy God hath commanded thee,

even then are they found no more blameless in the sight of God,

only according to the words which I have spoken unto thee.

Mosiah 3:23

And now I have spoken the words

which the Lord God hath commanded me.
