For behold, we are in bondage to the Lamanites,

and are taxed with a tax which is grievous to be borne.

And now, behold, our brethren will deliver us out of our bondage,

or out of the hands of the Lamanites,

and we will be their slaves;

for it is better that we be slaves to the Nephites

than to pay tribute to the king of the Lamanites.

that he spake unto them in this wise, saying:

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

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.

or the engravings that are on the plates.

Therefore I said unto thee:

Canst thou translate?

Mosiah 8:13

Now Ammon said unto him:

I can assuredly tell thee, O king, of a man that can translate the records;

for he has wherewith that he can look,

and translate all records that are of ancient date;

and it is a gift from God.

And the things are called interpreters,

and no man can look in them except he be commanded,

lest he should look for that he ought not and he should perish.

And whosoever is commanded to look in them, the same is called seer.

yet a man may have great power given him from God.

the king rejoiced exceedingly, and gave thanks to God, saying:

Doubtless a great mystery is contained within these plates,

and these interpreters were doubtless prepared

for the purpose of unfolding all such mysteries to the children of men.
