Behold my beloved brethren,

seeing that I have been permitted to come unto you,

therefore I attempt to address you in my language;

yea, by my own mouth,

seeing that it is the first time

I having been wholly confined to the judgment-seat,

having had much business that I could not come unto you.

Alma 7:5

And I trust, according to the Spirit of God which is in me,

that I shall also have joy over you;

nevertheless I do not desire

that my joy over you should come

by the cause of so much afflictions and sorrow

which I have had for the brethren at Zarahemla,

for behold, my joy cometh over them

after wading through much affliction and sorrow.

how to succor his people according to their infirmities.

and now behold, this is the testimony which is in me.

And whosoever doeth this,

and keepeth the commandments of God from thenceforth,

he shall have eternal life,

according to the testimony of the Holy Spirit, which testifieth in me.

I perceive that it has been made known unto you, by the testimony of his word,

that he cannot walk in crooked paths;

or from that which is right to that which is wrong;

therefore, his course is one eternal round.

And now my beloved brethren, I have spoken these words unto you

according to the Spirit which testifieth in me;

and my soul doth exceedingly rejoice,

because of the exceeding diligence and heed

which ye have given unto my word.
