Wo, wo, wo unto this people;

because of the slain of the fair sons and daughters of my people;

and it is because of their iniquity and abominations that they are fallen!

And behold, that great city Jacobugath,

which was inhabited by the people of king Jacob,

have I caused to be burned with fire

because of their sins and their wickedness,

which was above all the wickedness of the whole earth,

because of their secret murders and combinations;

for it was they that did destroy the peace of my people

and the government of the land;

therefore I did cause them to be burned,

to destroy them from before my face,

that the blood of the prophets and the saints

should not come up unto me any more against them.

and stoning those whom I did send to declare unto them

concerning their wickedness and their abominations.

And whoso cometh unto me with a broken heart and a contrite spirit,

because of their faith in me at the time of their conversion,

were baptized with fire and with the Holy Ghost,

and they knew it not.
