Mormon 8:14

And I am the same who hideth up this record unto the Lord;

the plates thereof are of no worth,

because of the commandment of the Lord.

For he truly saith that no one shall have them to get gain;

but the record thereof is of great worth;

and whoso shall bring it to light,

him will the Lord bless.

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 8:40

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?
