And also that a knowledge of these things

must come unto the remnant of these people, and also unto the Gentiles,

who the Lord hath said should scatter this people,

and this people should be counted as naught among them —

because of the wickedness of this people.

Mormon 5:12

Now these things are written unto the remnant of the house of Jacob;

that they may come forth in his own due time.

Mormon 5:14

And behold, they shall go unto the unbelieving of the Jews;

and for this intent shall they go —

that they may be persuaded that Jesus is the Christ,

the Son of the living God;

that the Father may bring about, through his most Beloved,

his great and eternal purpose,

in restoring the Jews, or all the house of Israel,

to the land of their inheritance,

which the Lord their God hath given them,

unto the fulfilling of his covenant;



Mormon 5:15

And also that the seed of this people may more fully believe his gospel,

which shall go forth unto them from the Gentiles;

for this people shall be scattered,

and shall become a dark, a filthy, and a loathsome people,

beyond the description of that which ever hath been amongst us,

yea, even that which hath been among the Lamanites,

and this because of their unbelief and idolatry.
