Mosiah 8:11, 12

Mosiah 8:11

And again, they have brought swords,

the hilts thereof have perished,

and the blades thereof were cankered with rust;

and there is no one in the land that is able to interpret the language

or the engravings that are on the plates.

Therefore I said unto thee:

Canst thou translate?

Mosiah 8:12

And I say unto thee again:

Knowest thou of any one that can translate?

For I am desirous that these records should be translated into our language;

for, perhaps, they will give us a knowledge of a remnant of the people

who have been destroyed,

from whence these records came;

or, perhaps, they will give us a knowledge of this very people

who have been destroyed;

and I am desirous to know the cause of their destruction.
