Do ye believe that our fathers, who were the children of Israel,

would have been led away out of the hands of the Egyptians

if they had not hearkened unto the words of the Lord?

and ye know that they were laden with tasks,

which were grievous to be borne;

wherefore, ye know that it must needs be a good thing for them,

that they should be brought out of bondage.

Yea, and ye also know that Moses, by his word

according to the power of God which was in him,

smote the rock, and there came forth water,

that the children of Israel might quench their thirst.
