Amulek, return to thine own house,

for thou shalt feed a prophet of the Lord;

yea, a holy man, who is a chosen man of God;

for he has fasted many days because of the sins of this people,

and he is an hungered,

and thou shalt receive him into thy house and feed him,

and he shall bless thee and thy house;

and the blessing of the Lord shall rest upon thee and thy house.

they would be ripe for destruction.

and the time is soon at hand except ye repent.
