which shall come to pass according to the spirit and not the flesh?

Nevertheless, after they shall be nursed by the Gentiles,

and the Lord has lifted up his hand upon the Gentiles

and set them up for a standard,

and their children have been carried in their arms,

and their daughters have been carried upon their shoulders,

for thus are the covenants of the Lord with our fathers;

and it meaneth us in the days to come,

and also all our brethren who are of the house of Israel.

after all the house of Israel have been scattered and confounded,

and by them shall our seed be scattered.

and being carried in their arms and upon their shoulders.

and the sword of their own hands shall fall upon their own heads,

and they shall be drunken with their own blood.

if it so be that they will harden their hearts against the Holy One of Israel.

that the things which have been written upon the plates of brass are true;

and they testify that a man must be obedient to the commandments of God.
