The Book of Mormon Part 114


3 Nephi 17:5 5 And it came to pa.s.s that when Jesus had thus spoken, he cast his eyes round about again on the mult.i.tude, and beheld they were in tears, and did look steadfastly upon him as if they would ask him to tarry a little longer with them.

3 Nephi 17:6 6 And he said unto them: Behold, my bowels are filled with compa.s.sion towards you.

3 Nephi 17:7 7 Have ye any that are sick among you? Bring them hither. Have ye any that are lame, or blind, or halt, or maimed, or leprous, or that are withered, or that are deaf, or that are afflicted in any manner? Bring them hither and I will heal them, for I have compa.s.sion upon you; my bowels are filled with mercy.

3 Nephi 17:8 8 For I perceive that ye desire that I should show unto you what I have done unto your brethren at Jerusalem, for I see that your faith is sufficient that I should heal you.

3 Nephi 17:9 9 And it came to pa.s.s that when he had thus spoken, all the mult.i.tude, with one accord, did go forth with their sick and their afflicted, and their lame, and with their blind, and with their dumb, and with all them that were afflicted in any manner; and he did heal them every one as they were brought forth unto him.

3 Nephi 17:10 10 And they did all, both they who had been healed and they who were whole, bow down at his feet, and did worship him; and as many as could come for the mult.i.tude did kiss his feet, insomuch that they did bathe his feet with their tears.

3 Nephi 17:11 11 And it came to pa.s.s that he commanded that their little children should be brought.

3 Nephi 17:12 12 So they brought their little children and set them down upon the ground round about him, and Jesus stood in the midst; and the mult.i.tude gave way till they had all been brought unto him.

3 Nephi 17:13 13 And it came to pa.s.s that when they had all been brought, and Jesus stood in the midst, he commanded the mult.i.tude that they should kneel down upon the ground.

3 Nephi 17:14 14 And it came to pa.s.s that when they had knelt upon the ground, Jesus groaned within himself, and said: Father, I am troubled because of the wickedness of the people of the house of Israel.

3 Nephi 17:15 15 And when he had said these words, he himself also knelt upon the earth; and behold he prayed unto the Father, and the things which he prayed cannot be written, and the mult.i.tude did bear record who heard him.

3 Nephi 17:16 16 And after this manner do they bear record: The eye hath never seen, neither hath the ear heard, before, so great and marvelous things as we saw and heard Jesus speak unto the Father;

3 Nephi 17:17 17 And no tongue can speak, neither can there be written by any man, neither can the hearts of men conceive so great and marvelous things as we both saw and heard Jesus speak; and no one can conceive of the joy which filled our souls at the time we heard him pray for us unto the Father.

3 Nephi 17:18 18 And it came to pa.s.s that when Jesus had made an end of praying unto the Father, he arose; but so great was the joy of the mult.i.tude that they were overcome.

3 Nephi 17:19 19 And it came to pa.s.s that Jesus spake unto them, and bade them arise.

3 Nephi 17:20 20 And they arose from the earth, and he said unto them: Blessed are ye because of your faith. And now behold, my joy is full.

3 Nephi 17:21 21 And when he had said these words, he wept, and the mult.i.tude bare record of it, and he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them.

3 Nephi 17:22 22 And when he had done this he wept again;

3 Nephi 17:23 23 And he spake unto the mult.i.tude, and said unto them: Behold your little ones.

3 Nephi 17:24 24 And as they looked to behold they cast their eyes towards heaven, and they saw the heavens open, and they saw angels descending out of heaven as it were in the midst of fire; and they came down and encircled those little ones about, and they were encircled about with fire; and the angels did minister unto them.

3 Nephi 17:25 25 And the mult.i.tude did see and hear and bear record; and they know that their record is true for they all of them did see and hear, every man for himself; and they were in number about two thousand and five hundred souls; and they did consist of men, women, and children.

3 Nephi 18 Chapter 18

3 Nephi 18:1 1 And it came to pa.s.s that Jesus commanded his disciples that they should bring forth some bread and wine unto him.

3 Nephi 18:2 2 And while they were gone for bread and wine, he commanded the mult.i.tude that they should sit themselves down upon the earth.

3 Nephi 18:3 3 And when the disciples had come with bread and wine, he took of the bread and brake and blessed it; and he gave unto the disciples and commanded that they should eat.

3 Nephi 18:4 4 And when they had eaten and were filled, he commanded that they should give unto the mult.i.tude.

3 Nephi 18:5 5 And when the mult.i.tude had eaten and were filled, he said unto the disciples: Behold there shall one be ordained among you, and to him will I give power that he shall break bread and bless it and give it unto the people of my church, unto all those who shall believe and be baptized in my name.

3 Nephi 18:6 6 And this shall ye always observe to do, even as I have done, even as I have broken bread and blessed it and given it unto you.

3 Nephi 18:7 7 And this shall ye do in remembrance of my body, which I have shown unto you. And it shall be a testimony unto the Father that ye do always remember me. And if ye do always remember me ye shall have my Spirit to be with you.

3 Nephi 18:8 8 And it came to pa.s.s that when he said these words, he commanded his disciples that they should take of the wine of the cup and drink of it, and that they should also give unto the mult.i.tude that they might drink of it.

3 Nephi 18:9 9 And it came to pa.s.s that they did so, and did drink of it and were filled; and they gave unto the mult.i.tude, and they did drink, and they were filled.

3 Nephi 18:10 10 And when the disciples had done this, Jesus said unto them: Blessed are ye for this thing which ye have done, for this is fulfilling my commandments, and this doth witness unto the Father that ye are willing to do that which I have commanded you.

3 Nephi 18:11 11 And this shall ye always do to those who repent and are baptized in my name; and ye shall do it in remembrance of my blood, which I have shed for you, that ye may witness unto the Father that ye do always remember me. And if ye do always remember me ye shall have my Spirit to be with you.

3 Nephi 18:12 12 And I give unto you a commandment that ye shall do these things. And if ye shall always do these things blessed are ye, for ye are built upon my rock.

3 Nephi 18:13 13 But whoso among you shall do more or less than these are not built upon my rock, but are built upon a sandy foundation; and when the rain descends, and the floods come, and the winds blow, and beat upon them, they shall fall, and the gates of h.e.l.l are ready open to receive them.

3 Nephi 18:14 14 Therefore blessed are ye if ye shall keep my commandments, which the Father hath commanded me that I should give unto you.

3 Nephi 18:15 15 Verily, verily, I say unto you, ye must watch and pray always, lest ye be tempted by the devil, and ye be led away captive by him.

3 Nephi 18:16 16 And as I have prayed among you even so shall ye pray in my church, among my people who do repent and are baptized in my name. Behold I am the light; I have set an example for you.

3 Nephi 18:17 17 And it came to pa.s.s that when Jesus had spoken these words unto his disciples, he turned again unto the mult.i.tude and said unto them:

3 Nephi 18:18 18 Behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, ye must watch and pray always lest ye enter into temptation; for Satan desireth to have you, that he may sift you as wheat.

3 Nephi 18:19 19 Therefore ye must always pray unto the Father in my name;

3 Nephi 18:20 20 And whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, which is right, believing that ye shall receive, behold it shall be given unto you.

3 Nephi 18:21 21 Pray in your families unto the Father, always in my name, that your wives and your children may be blessed.

3 Nephi 18:22 22 And behold, ye shall meet together oft; and ye shall not forbid any man from coming unto you when ye shall meet together, but suffer them that they may come unto you and forbid them not;

3 Nephi 18:23 23 But ye shall pray for them, and shall not cast them out; and if it so be that they come unto you oft ye shall pray for them unto the Father, in my name.

3 Nephi 18:24 24 Therefore, hold up your light that it may shine unto the world. Behold I am the light which ye shall hold up--that which ye have seen me do. Behold ye see that I have prayed unto the Father, and ye all have witnessed.

3 Nephi 18:25 25 And ye see that I have commanded that none of you should go away, but rather have commanded that ye should come unto me, that ye might feel and see; even so shall ye do unto the world; and whosoever breaketh this commandment suffereth himself to be led into temptation.

3 Nephi 18:26 26 And now it came to pa.s.s that when Jesus had spoken these words, he turned his eyes again upon the disciples whom he had chosen, and said unto them:

3 Nephi 18:27 27 Behold verily, verily, I say unto you, I give unto you another commandment, and then I must go unto my Father that I may fulfil other commandments which he hath given me.

3 Nephi 18:28 28 And now behold, this is the commandment which I give unto you, that ye shall not suffer any one knowingly to partake of my flesh and blood unworthily, when ye shall minister it;
