Ether 11

And there came also in the days of Com many prophets, and prophesied of the destruction of that great people except they should repent, and turn unto the Lord, and forsake their murders and wickedness.

In the days of Com, many prophets also came, and they prophesied that this whole vast people would be destroyed unless they repented, and turned to the Lord, and gave up their murders and their wickedness.

And it came to pass that the prophets were rejected by the people, and they fled unto Com for protection, for the people sought to destroy them.

But the people rejected the prophets, and the prophets fled to Com for protection, because the people were trying to kill them.

And they prophesied unto Com many things; and he was blessed in all the remainder of his days.

They prophesied many things to Com, and he was blessed for the rest of his days.

And he lived to a good old age, and begat Shiblom; and Shiblom reigned in his stead. And the brother of Shiblom rebelled against him, and there began to be an exceedingly great war in all the land.

He lived to a good old age, and he had a son named Shiblom, and Shiblom reigned in his place. But Shiblom's brother rebelled against him, and a massive war broke out across the whole land.

And it came to pass that the brother of Shiblom caused that all the prophets who prophesied of the destruction of the people should be put to death;

Shiblom's brother ordered that every prophet who had prophesied the destruction of the people be put to death,

And there was great calamity in all the land, for they had testified that a great curse should come upon the land, and also upon the people, and that there should be a great destruction among them, such an one as never had been upon the face of the earth, and their bones should become as heaps of earth upon the face of the land except they should repent of their wickedness.

and terrible suffering came over the whole land, because those prophets had testified that a great curse was coming on the land, and on the people too, and that a destruction was coming among them like nothing that had ever been on the face of the earth. Their bones would become like heaps of earth on the ground, unless they repented of their wickedness.

And they hearkened not unto the voice of the Lord, because of their wicked combinations; wherefore, there began to be wars and contentions in all the land, and also many famines and pestilences, insomuch that there was a great destruction, such an one as never had been known upon the face of the earth; and all this came to pass in the days of Shiblom.

But they would not listen to the voice of the Lord, because of their wicked combinations. So wars and conflicts broke out across the whole land, and many famines and plagues as well, until the destruction was so terrible that nothing like it had ever been known on the face of the earth. All of this happened in the days of Shiblom.

And the people began to repent of their iniquity; and inasmuch as they did the Lord did have mercy on them.

Then the people began to repent of their wickedness, and as far as they repented, the Lord had mercy on them.

And it came to pass that Ahah, his son, did obtain the kingdom; and he did reign over the people all his days. And he did do all manner of iniquity in his days, by which he did cause the shedding of much blood; and few were his days.

Ahah, Seth's son, gained the kingdom, and he ruled over the people all his days. He committed every kind of wickedness in his time, and by it he caused much blood to be shed. And his days were few.

And Ethem, being a descendant of Ahah, did obtain the kingdom; and he also did do that which was wicked in his days.

Ethem, a descendant of Ahah, gained the kingdom, and he too did what was wicked in his days.

And it came to pass that in the days of Ethem there came many prophets, and prophesied again unto the people; yea, they did prophesy that the Lord would utterly destroy them from off the face of the earth except they repented of their iniquities.

In the days of Ethem many prophets came and prophesied to the people again. They prophesied that the Lord would wipe them completely off the face of the earth unless they repented of their sins.

And it came to pass that the people hardened their hearts, and would not hearken unto their words; and the prophets mourned and withdrew from among the people.

And it came to pass that Ethem did execute judgment in wickedness all his days; and he begat Moron. And it came to pass that Moron did reign in his stead; and Moron did that which was wicked before the Lord.

And it came to pass that there arose a rebellion among the people, because of that secret combination which was built up to get power and gain; and there arose a mighty man among them in iniquity, and gave battle unto Moron, in which he did overthrow the half of the kingdom; and he did maintain the half of the kingdom for many years.

A rebellion rose up among the people because of that secret combination that had been built up to gain power and wealth. And a man rose up among them, powerful in wickedness, and gave battle to Moron, and in it he overthrew half the kingdom. He held that half of the kingdom for many years.

And it came to pass that Moron did overthrow him, and did obtain the kingdom again.

Then Moron overthrew him and won the kingdom back.

And it came to pass that there arose another mighty man; and he was a descendant of the brother of Jared.

But another powerful man rose up, a descendant of the brother of Jared.

And it came to pass that he did overthrow Moron and obtain the kingdom; wherefore, Moron dwelt in captivity all the remainder of his days; and he begat Coriantor.

He overthrew Moron and took the kingdom, so Moron lived in captivity for the rest of his days. And Moron had a son named Coriantor.

And it came to pass that Coriantor dwelt in captivity all his days.

Coriantor lived in captivity all his days.

And in the days of Coriantor there also came many prophets, and prophesied of great and marvelous things, and cried repentance unto the people, and except they should repent the Lord God would execute judgment against them to their utter destruction;

In the days of Coriantor many prophets came as well. They prophesied great and marvelous things, and they called the people to repentance, warning that unless the people repented, the Lord God would bring judgment against them, to their utter destruction,

And that the Lord God would send or bring forth another people to possess the land, by his power, after the manner by which he brought their fathers.
