Mosiah 7:18

And it came to pass that when they had gathered themselves together

that he spake unto them in this wise, saying:

O ye, my people, lift up your heads and be comforted;

for behold, the time is at hand, or is not far distant,

when we shall no longer be in subjection to our enemies,

notwithstanding our many strugglings, which have been in vain;

yet I trust there remaineth an effectual struggle to be made.

Mosiah 7:24

Yea, I say unto you,

great are the reasons which we have to mourn;

for behold how many of our brethren have been slain,

and their blood has been spilt in vain,

and all because of iniquity.
