3 NephiChapter18

And it came to pass that Jesus commanded his disciples that they should bring forth some bread and wine unto him.

Jesus commanded his disciples to bring him some bread and wine.

And while they were gone for bread and wine, he commanded the multitude that they should sit themselves down upon the earth.

And while they were gone for the bread and wine, he commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground.

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.

And when the disciples had come with the bread and wine, he took the bread and broke it and blessed it, and he gave it to the disciples and commanded them to eat.

And when they had eaten and were filled, he commanded that they should give unto the multitude.

And when they had eaten and were filled, he commanded them to give it to the crowd.

And when the multitude 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.

And when the crowd had eaten and were filled, he said to the disciples: "One among you shall be ordained, and to him I will give power to break bread and bless it and give it to the people of my church, to all who will believe and be baptized in my name.

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.

And this you shall always do, just as I have done, just as I have broken bread and blessed it and given it to you.

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.

And you shall do this in remembrance of my body, which I have shown you. And it shall be a testimony to the Father that you do always remember me. And if you do always remember me, you shall have my Spirit to be with you."

And it came to pass 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 multitude that they might drink of it.

And when he had said these words, he commanded his disciples to take of the wine of the cup and drink of it, and to give it also to the crowd, so that they might drink of it.

And it came to pass that they did so, and did drink of it and were filled; and they gave unto the multitude, and they did drink, and they were filled.

And they did so, and drank of it and were filled. And they gave it to the crowd, and they drank, and they were filled.

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.

And when the disciples had done this, Jesus said to them: "Blessed are you for this thing you have done, for this fulfills my commandments, and this bears witness to the Father that you are willing to do what I have commanded you.

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.

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

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.

"And I give you a commandment that you shall do these things. And if you always do these things, blessed are you, for you are built on my rock.

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 hell are ready open to receive them.

But whoever among you does more or less than these is not built on my rock, but is built on a sandy foundation. And when the rain comes down, and the floods come, and the winds blow and beat on them, they will fall, and the gates of hell stand open, ready to receive them.

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

Therefore blessed are you if you keep my commandments, which the Father has commanded me to give you.

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.

"Truly I say to you, you must watch and pray always, lest you be tempted by the devil and led away captive by him.

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.

And as I have prayed among you, so shall you pray in my church, among my people who repent and are baptized in my name. I am the light; I have set an example for you."

And it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words unto his disciples, he turned again unto the multitude and said unto them:

And when Jesus had spoken these words to his disciples, he turned again to the crowd and said to them:

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.

"Truly I say to you, you must watch and pray always, lest you enter into temptation; for Satan desires to have you, that he may sift you as wheat.

Therefore ye must always pray unto the Father in my name;

"Therefore you must always pray to the Father in my name;

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.

and whatever you ask the Father in my name, which is right, believing that you will receive, it shall be given to you.

Pray in your families unto the Father, always in my name, that your wives and your children may be blessed.

"Pray in your families to the Father, always in my name, that your wives and your children may be blessed.

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;

"And you shall meet together often, and you shall not forbid anyone from coming to you when you meet together. Let them come to you, and do not forbid them.

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.

But you shall pray for them, and shall not cast them out. And if they come to you often, you shall pray for them to the Father, in my name.

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.

"Therefore, hold up your light that it may shine to the world. I am the light which you shall hold up—that which you have seen me do. You see that I have prayed to the Father, and you have all witnessed it.

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.

And you see that I have commanded that none of you should go away, but rather have commanded that you should come to me, that you might feel and see. And you shall do the same to the world; and whoever breaks this commandment allows himself to be led into temptation."

And now it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words, he turned his eyes again upon the disciples whom he had chosen, and said unto them:

And when Jesus had spoken these words, he turned his eyes again on the disciples whom he had chosen, and said to them:

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.

"Truly I say to you, I give you another commandment, and then I must go to my Father, so that I may fulfill other commandments which he has given me.

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;

And now, this is the commandment which I give you: you shall not allow anyone knowingly to partake of my flesh and blood unworthily, when you minister it.

For whoso eateth and drinketh my flesh and blood unworthily eateth and drinketh damnation to his soul; therefore if ye know that a man is unworthy to eat and drink of my flesh and blood ye shall forbid him.

For whoever eats and drinks my flesh and blood unworthily eats and drinks damnation to his soul. Therefore, if you know that someone is unworthy to eat and drink of my flesh and blood, you shall forbid them.

Nevertheless, ye shall not cast him out from among you, but ye shall minister unto him and shall pray for him unto the Father, in my name; and if it so be that he repenteth and is baptized in my name, then shall ye receive him, and shall minister unto him of my flesh and blood.

"Even so, you shall not cast them out from among you, but you shall minister to them and shall pray for them to the Father, in my name. And if they repent and are baptized in my name, then you shall receive them, and shall minister to them of my flesh and blood.

But if he repent not he shall not be numbered among my people, that he may not destroy my people, for behold I know my sheep, and they are numbered.

But if they do not repent, they shall not be numbered among my people, so that they may not destroy my people; for I know my sheep, and my sheep are numbered.

Nevertheless, ye shall not cast him out of your synagogues, or your places of worship, for unto such shall ye continue to minister; for ye know not but what they will return and repent, and come unto me with full purpose of heart, and I shall heal them; and ye shall be the means of bringing salvation unto them.

Still, you shall not cast them out of your synagogues, or your places of worship, for you shall continue to minister to such people. You do not know whether they will return and repent and come to me with full purpose of heart, and I will heal them; and you will be the means of bringing salvation to them.

Therefore, keep these sayings which I have commanded you that ye come not under condemnation; for wo unto him whom the Father condemneth.

"Therefore, keep these sayings which I have commanded you, so that you do not come under condemnation; for woe to the one whom the Father condemns.

And I give you these commandments because of the disputations which have been among you. And blessed are ye if ye have no disputations among you.

And I give you these commandments because of the disputes that have been among you. And blessed are you if you have no disputes among you.

And now I go unto the Father, because it is expedient that I should go unto the Father for your sakes.

And now I go to the Father, because it is necessary that I go to the Father for your sakes."

And it came to pass that when Jesus had made an end of these sayings, he touched with his hand the disciples whom he had chosen, one by one, even until he had touched them all, and spake unto them as he touched them.

And when Jesus had ended these sayings, he touched the disciples whom he had chosen with his hand, one by one, until he had touched them all, and he spoke to them as he touched them.

And the multitude heard not the words which he spake, therefore they did not bear record; but the disciples bare record that he gave them power to give the Holy Ghost. And I will show unto you hereafter that this record is true.

And the crowd did not hear the words he spoke, so they did not testify of them; but the disciples testified that he gave them power to give the Holy Ghost. And I will show you later that this record is true.

And it came to pass that when Jesus had touched them all, there came a cloud and overshadowed the multitude that they could not see Jesus.

And when Jesus had touched them all, a cloud came and overshadowed the crowd, so that they could not see Jesus.

And while they were overshadowed he departed from them, and ascended into heaven. And the disciples saw and did bear record that he ascended again into heaven.

And while they were overshadowed, he left them and ascended into heaven. And the disciples saw it and testified that he ascended into heaven again.
