Mosiah 7:11

And now, for this cause have I suffered that ye should be preserved,

that I might inquire of you,

or else I should have caused that my guards should have put you to death.

Ye are permitted to speak.

Mosiah 7:15

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.

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 7:23

And now, is not this grievous to be borne?

And is not this, our affliction, great?

Now behold, how great reason we have to mourn.

Mosiah 7:27

And because he said unto them that Christ was the God, the Father of all things,

and said that he should take upon him the image of man,

and it should be the image after which man was created in the beginning;

or in other words, he said that man was created after the image of God,

and that God should come down among the children of men,

and take upon him flesh and blood,

and go forth upon the face of the earth—

Mosiah 7:29

For behold, the Lord hath said:

I will not succor my people in the day of their transgression;

but I will hedge up their ways that they prosper not;

and their doings shall be as a stumbling block before them.

Mosiah 8:5

And it came to pass that he caused that the plates

which contained the record of his people

from the time that they left the land of Zarahemla,

should be brought before Ammon, that he might read them.

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.

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.

Mosiah 8:17

But a seer can know of things which are past,

and also of things which are to come,

and by them shall all things be revealed,

or, rather, shall secret things be made manifest,

and hidden things shall come to light,

and things which are not known shall be made known by them,

and also things shall be made known by them

which otherwise could not be known.
