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 —

daring not to give a full account of the things which I have seen,

because of the commandment which I have received,

and also that ye might not have too great sorrow

because of the wickedness of this people.

Mormon 5:12

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

and they are written after this manner,

because it is known of God

that wickedness will not bring them forth unto them;

and they are to be hid up unto the Lord

that they may come forth in his own due time.

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.
