for ye are laying traps and snares to catch the holy ones of God.

Yea, and I say unto you that

if it were not for the prayers of the righteous, who are now in the land,

now therefore, if ye will cast out the righteous from among you

then ye shall be smitten by famine, and by pestilence, and by the sword;

and the time is soon at hand except ye repent.

that ye will not understand the words which are spoken, according to their truth?

to your condemnation.

Now these are the names of the different pieces

of their gold, and of their silver, according to their value.

And the names are given by the Nephites,

for they did not reckon after the manner of the Jews who were at Jerusalem;

neither did they measure after the manner of the Jews;

but they altered their reckoning and their measure,

according to the minds and the circumstances of the people,

in every generation, until the reign of the judges,

they having been established by king Mosiah.

See that ye remember these things;

for he said there is but one God;

Alma 11:44

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.
