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 1:3

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 1:9

And it came to pass that

after king Benjamin had made an end of teaching his sons,

that he waxed old,

and he saw that he must very soon go the way of all the earth;

therefore, he thought it expedient

that he should confer the kingdom upon one of his sons.



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 1:13

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 1:18

And now, it came to pass that

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 2:1

And it came to pass that after Mosiah had done as his father had commanded him,

and had made a proclamation throughout all the land,

that the people gathered themselves together throughout all the land,

that they might go up to the temple to hear the words

which king Benjamin 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 2:8

And it came to pass that

he began to speak to his people from the tower;

and they could not all hear his words because of the greatness of the multitude;

therefore he caused that the words which he spake should be written

and sent forth among those that were not under the sound of his voice,

that they might also receive his words.



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 2:13

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 2:20

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 2:22

And behold, all that he requires of you is to keep his commandments;

and he has promised you that if ye would keep his commandments

ye should prosper in the land;

and he never doth vary from that which he hath said;

therefore, if ye do keep his commandments

he doth bless you and prosper you.



Mosiah 2:24

And secondly, he doth require

that ye should do as he hath commanded you;

for which if ye do,

he doth immediately bless you;

and therefore he hath paid you.

And ye are still indebted unto him,

and are, and will be, forever and ever;

therefore, of what have ye to boast?



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 2:36

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 2:40

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 3:13

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.



Mosiah 3:26

Therefore, they have drunk out of the cup of the wrath of God,

which justice could no more deny unto them than it could deny

that Adam should fall because of his partaking of the forbidden fruit;

therefore, mercy could have claim on them no more forever.
