5:14 And again, doth a man take an ass which belongeth to his neighbor,
and keep him? I say unto you, Nay; he will not even suffer that he
shall feed among his flocks, but will drive him away, and cast him out.
I say unto you, that even so shall it be among you if ye know not the
name by which ye are called.
5:15 Therefore, I would that ye should be steadfast and immovable,
always abounding in good works, that Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent,
may seal you his, that you may be brought to heaven, that ye may have
everlasting salvation and eternal life, through the wisdom, and power,
and justice, and mercy of him who created all things, in heaven and in
earth, who is God above all. Amen.
Mosiah Chapter 6
6:1 And now, king Benjamin thought it was expedient, after having
finished speaking to the people, that he should take the names of all
those who had entered into a covenant with God to keep his
commandments.
6:2 And it came to pass that there was not one soul, except it were
little children, but who had entered into the covenant and had taken
upon them the name of Christ.
6:3 And again, it came to pass that when king Benjamin had made an end
of all these things, and had consecrated his son Mosiah to be a ruler
and a king over his people, and had given him all the charges
concerning the kingdom, and also had appointed priests to teach the
people, that thereby they might hear and know the commandments of God,
and to stir them up in remembrance of the oath which they had made, he
dismissed the multitude, and they returned, every one, according to
their families, to their own houses.
6:4 And Mosiah began to reign in his father’s stead. And he began to
reign in the thirtieth year of his age, making in the whole, about four
hundred and seventy-six years from the time that Lehi left Jerusalem.
6:5 And king Benjamin lived three years and he died.
6:6 And it came to pass that king Mosiah did walk in the ways of the
Lord, and did observe his judgments and his statutes, and did keep his
commandments in all things whatsoever he commanded him.
6:7 And king Mosiah did cause his people that they should till the
earth. And he also, himself, did till the earth, that thereby he might
not become burdensome to his people, that he might do according to that
which his father had done in all things. And there was no contention
among all his people for the space of three years.
Mosiah Chapter 7
7:1 And now, it came to pass that after king Mosiah had had continual
peace for the space of three years, he was desirous to know concerning
the people who went up to dwell in the land of Lehi-Nephi, or in the
city of Lehi-Nephi; for his people had heard nothing from them from the
time they left the land of Zarahemla; therefore, they wearied him with
their teasings.
7:2 And it came to pass that king Mosiah granted that sixteen of their
strong men might go up to the land of Lehi-Nephi to inquire concerning
their brethren.
