Mormon 6:16

And my soul was rent with anguish,

because of the slain of my people,

and I cried:

Mormon 6:17

O ye fair ones,

how could ye have departed from the ways of the Lord!

O ye fair ones,

how could ye have rejected that Jesus,

who stood with open arms to receive you!

Mormon 6:18

Behold, if ye had not done this,

ye would not have fallen.

But behold, ye are fallen,

and I mourn your loss.

Mormon 6:19

O ye fair sons and daughters,

ye fathers and mothers,

ye husbands and wives,

ye fair ones,

how is it that ye could have fallen!

Mormon 6:20

But behold, ye are gone,

and my sorrows cannot bring your return.

Mormon 6:21

And the day soon cometh that your mortal must put on immortality,

and these bodies which are now moldering in corruption

must soon become incorruptible bodies;

and then ye must stand before the judgment-seat of Christ,

to be judged according to your works;

and if it so be that ye are righteous,

then are ye blessed with your fathers who have gone before you.

Mormon 6:22

O that ye had repented

before this great destruction had come upon you.

But behold, ye are gone,

and the Father, yea, the Eternal Father of heaven, knoweth your state;

and he doeth with you according to his justice and mercy.
