10 And these twelve ministers whom thou beholdest shall judge
thy seed. And, behold, they are righteous forever; for because
of their faith in the Lamb of God their garments are made white
in his blood.
1 Nephi 12:11
11 And the angel said unto me: Look! And I looked, and beheld
three generations pass away in righteousness; and their garments
were white even like unto the Lamb of God. And the angel said
unto me: These are made white in the blood of the Lamb, because
of their faith in him.
1 Nephi 12:12
12 And I, Nephi, also saw many of the fourth generation who
passed away in righteousness.
1 Nephi 12:13
13 And it came to pass that I saw the multitudes of the earth
gathered together.
1 Nephi 12:14
14 And the angel said unto me: Behold thy seed, and also the
seed of thy brethren.
1 Nephi 12:15
15 And it came to pass that I looked and beheld the people of my
seed gathered together in multitudes against the seed of my
brethren; and they were gathered together to battle.
1 Nephi 12:16
16 And the angel spake unto me, saying: Behold the fountain of
filthy water which thy father saw; yea, even the river of which
he spake; and the depths thereof are the depths of hell.
1 Nephi 12:17
17 And the mists of darkness are the temptations of the devil,
which blindeth the eyes, and hardeneth the hearts of the children
of men, and leadeth them away into broad roads, that they perish
and are lost.
1 Nephi 12:18
18 And the large and spacious building, which thy father saw, is
vain imaginations and the pride of the children of men. And a
great and a terrible gulf divideth them; yea, even the word of
the justice of the Eternal God, and the Messiah who is the Lamb
of God, of whom the Holy Ghost beareth record, from the beginning
of the world until this time, and from this time henceforth and
forever.
1 Nephi 12:19
19 And while the angel spake these words, I beheld and saw that
the seed of my brethren did contend against my seed, according to
the word of the angel; and because of the pride of my seed, and
the temptations of the devil, I beheld that the seed of my
brethren did overpower the people of my seed.
1 Nephi 12:20
20 And it came to pass that I beheld, and saw the people of the
seed of my brethren that they had overcome my seed; and they went
forth in multitudes upon the face of the land.
1 Nephi 12:21
21 And I saw them gathered together in multitudes; and I saw
wars and rumors of wars among them; and in wars and rumors of
wars I saw many generations pass away.
1 Nephi 12:22
22 And the angel said unto me: Behold these shall dwindle in
unbelief.
1 Nephi 12:23
23 And it came to pass that I beheld, after they had dwindled in
unbelief they became a dark, and loathsome, and a filthy people,
full of idleness and all manner of abominations.
1 Nephi 13 Chapter 13
1 Nephi 13:1
1 And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me, saying:
Look! And I looked and beheld many nations and kingdoms.
1 Nephi 13:2
2 And the angel said unto me: What beholdest thou? And I said:
I behold many nations and kingdoms.
1 Nephi 13:3
3 And he said unto me: These are the nations and kingdoms of the
Gentiles.
1 Nephi 13:4
4 And it came to pass that I saw among the nations of the
Gentiles the formation of a great church.
1 Nephi 13:5
5 And the angel said unto me: Behold the formation of a church
which is most abominable above all other churches, which slayeth
the saints of God, yea, and tortureth them and bindeth them down,
and yoketh them with a yoke of iron, and bringeth them down into
captivity.
1 Nephi 13:6
6 And it came to pass that I beheld this great and abominable
church; and I saw the devil that he was the founder of it.
1 Nephi 13:7
7 And I also saw gold, and silver, and silks, and scarlets, and
fine-twined linen, and all manner of precious clothing; and I saw
many harlots.
1 Nephi 13:8
8 And the angel spake unto me, saying: Behold the gold, and the
