exceed everything; yea, tongue cannot tell, neither can it be
written.
Moroni 9:20
20 And now, my son, I dwell no longer upon this horrible scene.
Behold, thou knowest the wickedness of this people; thou knowest
that they are without principle, and past feeling; and their
wickedness doth exceed that of the Lamanites.
Moroni 9:21
21 Behold, my son, I cannot recommend them unto God lest he
should smite me.
Moroni 9:22
22 But behold, my son, I recommend thee unto God, and I trust in
Christ that thou wilt be saved; and I pray unto God that he will
spare thy life, to witness the return of his people unto him, or
their utter destruction; for I know that they must perish except
they repent and return unto him.
Moroni 9:23
23 And if they perish it will be like unto the Jaredites,
because of the wilfulness of their hearts, seeking for blood and
revenge.
Moroni 9:24
24 And if it so be that they perish, we know that many of our
brethren have deserted over unto the Lamanites, and many more
will also desert over unto them; wherefore, write somewhat a few
things, if thou art spared and I shall perish and not see thee;
but I trust that I may see thee soon; for I have sacred records
that I would deliver up unto thee.
Moroni 9:25
25 My son, be faithful in Christ; and may not the things which I
have written grieve thee, to weigh thee down unto death; but may
Christ lift thee up, and may his sufferings and death, and the
showing his body unto our fathers, and his mercy and
long-suffering, and the hope of his glory and of eternal life,
rest in your mind forever.
Moroni 9:26
26 And may the grace of God the Father, whose throne is high in
the heavens, and our Lord Jesus Christ, who sitteth on the right
hand of his power, until all things shall become subject unto
him, be, and abide with you forever. Amen.
Moroni 10 Chapter 10
Moroni 10:1
1 Now I, Moroni, write somewhat as seemeth me good; and I write
unto my brethren, the Lamanites; and I would that they should
know that more than four hundred and twenty years have passed
away since the sign was given of the coming of Christ.
Moroni 10:2
2 And I seal up these records, after I have spoken a few words
by way of exhortation unto you.
Moroni 10:3
3 Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these
things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye
would remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children
of men, from the creation of Adam even down unto the time that ye
shall receive these things, and ponder it in your hearts.
Moroni 10:4
4 And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you
that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ,
if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere
heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest
the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.
Moroni 10:5
5 And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of
all things.
Moroni 10:6
6 And whatsoever thing is good is just and true; wherefore,
nothing that is good denieth the Christ, but acknowledgeth that
he is.
Moroni 10:7
7 And ye may know that he is, by the power of the Holy Ghost;
wherefore I would exhort you that ye deny not the power of God;
for he worketh by power, according to the faith of the children
of men, the same today and tomorrow, and forever.
Moroni 10:8
8 And again, I exhort you, my brethren, that ye deny not the
gifts of God, for they are many; and they come from the same God.
And there are different ways that these gifts are administered;
but it is the same God who worketh all in all; and they are given
by the manifestations of the Spirit of God unto men, to profit
them.
Moroni 10:9
9 For behold, to one is given by the Spirit of God, that he may
teach the word of wisdom;
Moroni 10:10
10 And to another, that he may teach the word of knowledge by
the same Spirit;
Moroni 10:11
11 And to another, exceedingly great faith; and to another, the
gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
Moroni 10:12
12 And again, to another, that he may work mighty miracles;
Moroni 10:13
13 And again, to another, that he may prophesy concerning all
things;
Moroni 10:14
14 And again, to another, the beholding of angels and
ministering spirits;
Moroni 10:15
15 And again, to another, all kinds of tongues;
Moroni 10:16
16 And again, to another, the interpretation of languages and of
divers kinds of tongues.
Moroni 10:17
17 And all these gifts come by the Spirit of Christ; and they
come unto every man severally, according as he will.
Moroni 10:18
18 And I would exhort you, my beloved brethren, that ye remember
that every good gift cometh of Christ.
Moroni 10:19
19 And I would exhort you, my beloved brethren, that ye remember
that he is the same yesterday, today, and forever, and that all
these gifts of which I have spoken, which are spiritual, never
will be done away, even as long as the world shall stand, only
according to the unbelief of the children of men.
