Mormon 9:5, 14

Mormon 8:5

Behold, my father hath made this record,

and he hath written the intent thereof.

And behold, I would write it also

if I had room upon the plates,

but I have not;

and ore I have none,

for I am alone.

My father hath been slain in battle,

and all my kinsfolk,

and I have not friends nor whither to go;

and how long the Lord will suffer that I may live I know not.

Mormon 8:9

And now, behold, I say no more concerning them,

for there are none save it be the Lamanites and robbers

that do exist upon the face of the land.

Mormon 8:10

And there are none that do know the true God

save it be the disciples of Jesus, who did tarry in the land

until the wickedness of the people was so great

that the Lord would not suffer them to remain with the people;

and whether they be upon the face of the land no man knoweth.

Mormon 8:31

Yea, it shall come in a day

when there shall be great pollutions upon the face of the earth;

there shall be murders, and robbing, and lying, and deceivings, and whoredoms,

and all manner of abominations;

when there shall be many who will say,

Do this, or do that, and it mattereth not,

for the Lord will uphold such at the last day.

But wo unto such, for they are in the gall of bitterness

and in the bonds of iniquity.

Mormon 8:33

O ye wicked and perverse and stiffnecked people,

why have ye built up churches unto yourselves to get gain?

Why have ye transfigured the holy word of God,

that ye might bring damnation upon your souls?

Behold, look ye unto the revelations of God;

for behold, the time cometh at that day

when all these things must be fulfilled.

Mormon 8:38

O ye pollutions, ye hypocrites,

ye teachers, who sell yourselves for that which will canker,

why have ye polluted the holy church of God?

Why are ye ashamed to take upon you the name of Christ?

Why do ye not think that greater is the value of an endless happiness

than that misery which never dies —

because of the praise of the world?

Mormon 8:40

Yea, why do ye build up your secret abominations to get gain,

and cause that widows should mourn before the Lord,

and also orphans to mourn before the Lord,

and also the blood of their fathers and their husbands

to cry unto the Lord from the ground, for vengeance upon your heads?

Mormon 8:41

Behold, the sword of vengeance hangeth over you;

and the time soon cometh that he avengeth the blood of the saints upon you,

for he will not suffer their cries any longer.

Mormon 9:5

For behold, when ye shall be brought to see your nakedness before God,

and also the glory of God, and the holiness of Jesus Christ,

it will kindle a flame of unquenchable fire upon you.

Mormon 9:14

And then cometh the judgment of the Holy One upon them;

and then cometh the time

that he that is filthy shall be filthy still;

and he that is righteous shall be righteous still;

he that is happy shall be happy still;

and he that is unhappy shall be unhappy still.
