MosiahChapter5

And now, it came to pass that when king Benjamin had thus spoken to his people, he sent among them, desiring to know of his people if they believed the words which he had spoken unto them.

When king Benjamin had finished speaking to his people, he sent among them, wanting to know whether his people believed the words he had spoken to them.

And they all cried with one voice, saying: Yea, we believe all the words which thou hast spoken unto us; and also, we know of their surety and truth, because of the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent, which has wrought a mighty change in us, or in our hearts, that we have no more disposition to do evil, but to do good continually.

And they all cried out with one voice, "Yes, we believe all the words you have spoken to us. And more than that, we know they are sure and true, because of the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent, which has worked a mighty change in us, or in our hearts, so that we have no more disposition to do evil, but to do good continually.

And we, ourselves, also, through the infinite goodness of God, and the manifestations of his Spirit, have great views of that which is to come; and were it expedient, we could prophesy of all things.

"And we ourselves, through the infinite goodness of God and the manifestations of his Spirit, have great views of what is to come. And if it were needed, we could prophesy about all things.

And it is the faith which we have had on the things which our king has spoken unto us that has brought us to this great knowledge, whereby we do rejoice with such exceedingly great joy.

And it is the faith we have had in the things our king has spoken to us that has brought us to this great knowledge, and this is why we rejoice with such great joy.

And we are willing to enter into a covenant with our God to do his will, and to be obedient to his commandments in all things that he shall command us, all the remainder of our days, that we may not bring upon ourselves a never-ending torment, as has been spoken by the angel, that we may not drink out of the cup of the wrath of God.

"And we are willing to enter into a covenant with our God, to do his will and to be obedient to his commandments in all things that he commands us, for the rest of our days. Then we will not bring upon ourselves a never-ending torment, as the angel has said, and we will not drink from the cup of the wrath of God."

And now, these are the words which king Benjamin desired of them; and therefore he said unto them: Ye have spoken the words that I desired; and the covenant which ye have made is a righteous covenant.

These were the very words king Benjamin had wanted from them, so he said to them, "You have spoken the words that I wanted to hear, and the covenant you have made is a righteous covenant.

And now, because of the covenant which ye have made ye shall be called the children of Christ, his sons, and his daughters; for behold, this day he hath spiritually begotten you; for ye say that your hearts are changed through faith on his name; therefore, ye are born of him and have become his sons and his daughters.

"And now, because of the covenant you have made, you will be called the children of Christ, his sons, and his daughters. For this day he has spiritually begotten you. You yourselves say that your hearts are changed through faith in his name, and therefore you are born of him and have become his sons and his daughters.

And under this head ye are made free, and there is no other head whereby ye can be made free. There is no other name given whereby salvation cometh; therefore, I would that ye should take upon you the name of Christ, all you that have entered into the covenant with God that ye should be obedient unto the end of your lives.

"Under this head you are made free, and there is no other head that can make you free. There is no other name given through which salvation comes. Therefore I want you to take upon you the name of Christ, all of you who have entered into the covenant with God to be obedient to the end of your lives.

And it shall come to pass that whosoever doeth this shall be found at the right hand of God, for he shall know the name by which he is called; for he shall be called by the name of Christ.

"And whoever does this will be found at the right hand of God, for they will know the name by which they are called; they will be called by the name of Christ.

And now it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall not take upon him the name of Christ must be called by some other name; therefore, he findeth himself on the left hand of God.

But whoever will not take upon them the name of Christ must be called by some other name, and so they will find themselves on the left hand of God.

And I would that ye should remember also, that this is the name that I said I should give unto you that never should be blotted out, except it be through transgression; therefore, take heed that ye do not transgress, that the name be not blotted out of your hearts.

"And I want you to remember also that this is the name I said I would give you, the name that would never be blotted out except through transgression. So be careful that you do not transgress, so that the name is not blotted out of your hearts.

I say unto you, I would that ye should remember to retain the name written always in your hearts, that ye are not found on the left hand of God, but that ye hear and know the voice by which ye shall be called, and also, the name by which he shall call you.

I say to you, I want you to remember to keep the name written always in your hearts, so that you are not found on the left hand of God. I want you to hear and know the voice by which you will be called, and also the name by which he will call you.

For how knoweth a man the master whom he has not served, and who is a stranger unto him, and is far from the thoughts and intents of his heart?

"For how does a person know the master they have not served, a master who is a stranger to them, and far from the thoughts and intents of their heart?

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.

And again, does anyone take a donkey that belongs to their neighbor and keep it? I say to you, No. They will not even let it feed among their flocks, but will drive it off and send it away. And I say to you, that is how it will be among you if you do not know the name by which you are called.

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.

"Therefore, I want you to be steadfast and immovable, always abounding in good works, so that Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent, may seal you his, and you may be brought to heaven and have everlasting salvation and eternal life, through the wisdom, and power, and justice, and mercy of him who created all things in heaven and on earth, who is God above all. Amen."
