35 And now behold I say unto you, that if this people, who have received so many blessings from the hand of the Lord, should transgress, contrary to the light and knowledge which they do have;

36 I say unto you, that if this be the case; that if they should fall into transgression, that it would be far more tolerable for the Lamanites than for them.

37 For behold, the promises of the Lord are extended to the Lamanites, but they are not unto you, if ye transgress;

38 For has not the Lord expressly promised and firmly decreed, that if ye will rebel against him, that ye shall utterly be destroyed from off the face of the earth?

39 And now for this cause, that ye may not be destroyed, the Lord has sent his angel to visit many of his people, declaring unto them that they must go forth and cry mightily unto this people, saying, Repent ye, repent ye, for the kingdom of heaven is nigh at hand;

40 And not many days hence, the Son of God shall come in his glory; and his glory shall be the glory of the Only Begotten of the Father, full of grace, equity and truth, full of patience, mercy, and long suffering, quick to hear the cries of his people, and to answer their prayers.

41 And behold, he cometh to redeem those who will be baptized unto repentance, through faith on his name;

42 Therefore prepare ye the way of the Lord, for the time is at hand that all men shall reap a reward of their works, according to that which they have been:

43 If they have been righteous, they shall reap the salvation of their souls, according to the power and deliverance of Jesus Christ;

44 And if they have been evil, they shall reap the damnation of their souls, according to the power and captivation of the devil.

45 Now behold, this is the voice of the angel, crying unto the people.
