Now, this restoration shall come to all,

both old and young, both bond and free, both male and female,

both the wicked and the righteous;

and even there shall not so much as a hair of their heads be lost;

but every thing shall be restored to its perfect frame,

as it is now, or in the body,

and shall be brought and be arraigned

before the bar of Christ the Son, and God the Father, and the Holy Spirit,

which is one Eternal God,

to be judged according to their works,

whether they be good or whether they be evil.
