22:48in & precious saith the Lamb for behold saith

22:49the Lamb I will manifest myself unto thy

22:50seed that they shall write many things which

22:51I shall minister them which shall be plain

22:52& precious & after that thy <​they​> seed shall be destroy

22:53ed & dwindle in unbelief I <​&​>also the seed of

22:54thy Brethren Behold these things shall be hid

13:35For, behold, saith the Lamb: I will manifest myself unto thy seed, that they shall write many things which I shall minister unto them, which shall be plain and precious; and after thy seed shall be destroyed, and dwindle in unbelief, and also the seed of thy brethren, behold, these things shall be hid up, to come forth unto the Gentiles, by the gift and power of the Lamb.

13:36And in them shall be written my gospel, saith the Lamb, and my rock and my salvation.

13:37And blessed are they who shall seek to bring forth my Zion at that day, for they shall have the gift and the power of the Holy Ghost; and if they endure unto the end they shall be lifted up at the last day, and shall be saved in the everlasting kingdom of the Lamb; and whoso shall publish peace, yea, tidings of great joy, how beautiful upon the mountains shall they be.

13:38And it came to pass that I beheld the remnant of the seed of my brethren, and also the book of the Lamb of God, which had proceeded forth from the mouth of the Jew, that it came forth from the Gentiles unto the remnant of the seed of my brethren.

13:39And after it had come forth unto them I beheld other books, which came forth by the power of the Lamb, from the Gentiles unto them, unto the convincing of the Gentiles and the remnant of the seed of my brethren, and also the Jews who were scattered upon all the face of the earth, that the records of the prophets and of the twelve apostles of the Lamb are true.

13:40And the angel spake unto me, saying: These last records, which thou hast seen among the Gentiles, shall establish the truth of the first, which are of the twelve apostles of the Lamb, and shall make known the plain and precious things which have been taken away from them; and shall make known to all kindreds, tongues, and people, that the Lamb of God is the Son of the Eternal Father, and the Savior of the world; and that all men must come unto him, or they cannot be saved.

13:41And they must come according to the words which shall be established by the mouth of the Lamb; and the words of the Lamb shall be made known in the records of thy seed, as well as in the records of the twelve apostles of the Lamb; wherefore they both shall be established in one; for there is one God and one Shepherd over all the earth.

13:42And the time cometh that he shall manifest himself unto all nations, both unto the Jews and also unto the Gentiles; and after he has manifested himself unto the Jews and also unto the Gentiles, then he shall manifest himself unto the Gentiles and also unto the Jews, and the last shall be first, and the first shall be last.

14:1And it shall come to pass, that if the Gentiles shall hearken unto the Lamb of God in that day that he shall manifest himself unto them in word, and also in power, in very deed, unto the taking away of their stumbling blocks

14:2And harden not their hearts against the Lamb of God, they shall be numbered among the seed of thy father; yea, they shall be numbered among the house of Israel; and they shall be a blessed people upon the promised land forever; they shall be no more brought down into captivity; and the house of Israel shall no more be confounded.

14:3And that great pit, which hath been digged for them by that great and abominable church, which was founded by the devil and his children, that he might lead away the souls of men down to hellyea, that great pit which hath been digged for the destruction of men shall be filled by those who digged it, unto their utter destruction, saith the Lamb of God; not the destruction of the soul, save it be the casting of it into that hell which hath no end.

14:4For behold, this is according to the captivity of the devil, and also according to the justice of God, upon all those who will work wickedness and abomination before him.

14:5And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me, Nephi, saying: Thou hast beheld that if the Gentiles repent it shall be well with them; and thou also knowest concerning the covenants of the Lord unto the house of Israel; and thou also hast heard that whoso repenteth not must perish.

14:6Therefore, wo be unto the Gentiles if it so be that they harden their hearts against the Lamb of God.

14:7For the time cometh, saith the Lamb of God, that I will work a great and a marvelous work among the children of men; a work which shall be everlasting, either on the one hand or on the othereither to the convincing of them unto peace and life eternal, or unto the deliverance of them to the hardness of their hearts and the blindness of their minds unto their being brought down into captivity, and also into destruction, both temporally and spiritually, according to the captivity of the devil, of which I have spoken.

14:8And it came to pass that when the angel had spoken these words, he said unto me: Rememberest thou the covenants of the Father unto the house of Israel? I said unto him, Yea.

14:9And it came to pass that he said unto me: Look, and behold that great and abominable church, which is the mother of abominations, whose founder is the devil.

14:10And he said unto me: Behold there are save two churches only; the one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is the church of the devil; wherefore, whoso belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God belongeth to that great church, which is the mother of abominations; and she is the whore of all the earth.

14:11And it came to pass that I looked and beheld the whore of all the earth, and she sat upon many waters; and she had dominion over all the earth, among all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people.

25:1[whore of a] ll the eart[h] & she sat upon many waters & she[haddomin] ion over all the Earth among all Nations kindreds t[oun] g[s &] people & it came to pass that I beheld the Church of the Lamb

25:5[als] o upon <​all​> the face of the earth & their dominion upon the face

25:6of[the] earth were small because of the wickedness of the great

14:12And it came to pass that I beheld the church of the Lamb of God, and its numbers were few, because of the wickedness and abominations of the whore who sat upon many waters; nevertheless, I beheld that the church of the Lamb, who were the saints of God, were also upon all the face of the earth; and their dominions upon the face of the earth were small, because of the wickedness of the great whore whom I saw.

25:7whore which I saw & it came to pass that I beheld that the

25:8great Mother of abominations did gether to gethr in mul

25:9[t] itudes upon the face of all the Earth among all the Nation

14:13And it came to pass that I beheld that the great mother of abominations did gather together multitudes upon the face of all the earth, among all the nations of the Gentiles, to fight against the Lamb of God.

25:11came to pass that I Nephi beheld the power of the Lam[b] of

25:12god that it decended upon the saints of the Church of

25:13the Lamb & upon the Covanant people of the Lord whi[c] h

25:14were scattered upon all the face of the Earth & they were

25:15armed with righteousness & with the power of god in[gre] at

14:14And it came to pass that I, Nephi, beheld the power of the Lamb of God, that it descended upon the saints of the church of the Lamb, and upon the covenant people of the Lord, who were scattered upon all the face of the earth; and they were armed with righteousness and with the power of God in great glory.

25:16[glory] & it came to pass that I beheld that the wrath of

25:17[God] was poured out upon that great & abominable ch[ur] ch

25:18[inso] much that there ware wars & rumours of wars[am] ong

14:15And it came to pass that I beheld that the wrath of God was poured out upon that great and abominable church, insomuch that there were wars and rumors of wars among all the nations and kindreds of the earth.

25:19[all the nations &] k[in] d[re] d[s o] f the Earth & as there b[egan to be]

14:16And as there began to be wars and rumors of wars among all the nations which belonged to the mother of abominations, the angel spake unto me, saying: Behold, the wrath of God is upon the mother of harlots; and behold, thou seest all these things

14:17And when the day cometh that the wrath of God is poured out upon the mother of harlots, which is the great and abominable church of all the earth, whose founder is the devil, then, at that day, the work of the Father shall commence, in preparing the way for the fulfilling of his covenants, which he hath made to his people who are of the house of Israel.

14:18And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me, saying: Look!

14:19And I looked and beheld a man, and he was dressed in a white robe.

14:20And the angel said unto me: Behold one of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

14:21Behold, he shall see and write the remainder of these things; yea, and also many things which have been.

14:22And he shall also write concerning the end of the world.

26:1[out] of[the mouth of the] J[ew & at the time they proceeded out]

26:2of the mouth of the Jew thes or at the time the Book proce[eded]

26:3out of the mowth of the Jew the things which were wr[itten]

14:23Wherefore, the things which he shall write are just and true; and behold they are written in the book which thou beheld proceeding out of the mouth of the Jew; and at the time they proceeded out of the mouth of the Jew, or, at the time the book proceeded out of the mouth of the Jew, the things which were written were plain and pure, and most precious and easy to the understanding of all men.

26:5ding of all men & behold these things which this apostl[e of]

26:6the Lamb shall write are many things which thou has[t]

14:24And behold, the things which this apostle of the Lamb shall write are many things which thou hast seen; and behold, the remainder shalt thou see.

26:7seen & behold the remainder shalt thou see but the thing[s]

26:8which thou shalt see hereafter thou shalt not write for

26:9the Lord God hath ordained the Apostle of the lamb of go[d]

14:25But the things which thou shalt see hereafter thou shalt not write; for the Lord God hath ordained the apostle of the Lamb of God that he should write them.

26:10that he should write them & also others which have b[een]

26:11to them hath he shown all things & they have write[n]

26:12them & they are sealed up to come forth in their pu[ri]

14:26And also others who have been, to them hath he shown all things, and they have written them; and they are sealed up to come forth in their purity, according to the truth which is in the Lamb, in the own due time of the Lord, unto the house of Israel.

26:14due time of the Lord unto the house of Israel & I neph[i]

14:27And I, Nephi, heard and bear record, that the name of the apostle of the Lamb was John, according to the word of the angel.

14:28And behold, I, Nephi, am forbidden that I should write the remainder of the things which I saw and heard; wherefore the things which I have written sufficeth me; and I have written but a small part of the things which I saw.

26:20the things which I saw & I Bear record that I saw the thin[gs

14:29And I bear record that I saw the things which my father saw, and the angel of the Lord did make them known unto me.

26:21w] hich my father saw & the Angel of the Lord did make

14:30And now I make an end of speaking concerning the things which I saw while I was carried away in the Spirit; and if all the things which I saw are not written, the things which I have written are true. And thus it is. Amen.
