Adding and Taking Away From God's Word

In the Bible we have three solid verses telling us to never add to or take away from God's word. Nevertheless, Joseph Smith chose to alter God's word to fit his new religion.

When asked about these verses in light of Joseph Smith's attempt to alter God's Word the common response is that those verses only refer to that individual book, not the entire Bible. If it was intended to be applied to the entire Bible then we would have to throw out anything that was added past the book of Deuteronomy. Well that is an interesting point. So let's accept that definition for the moment. If these warnings listed in three different books of the Bible only refer to the book in which it appears, then we need to see if Joseph Smith decided not to adhere to these warnings and alter these three books as well.

These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens, 5.

6. And I, the Lord God, had created all the children of men, and not yet a man to till the ground, for in heaven created I them, and there was not yet flesh upon the earth, neither in the water, neither in the air;	and there was not a man to till the ground.

11. And out of the ground, made I, the Lord God, to grow every tree naturally, that is pleasant to the sight of man, and man could behold it, and it became also a living soul; for it was spiritual in the day that I created it; for it remaineth in the sphere in which I, God, created it; yea, even all things which I prepared for the use of man; and man saw that it was good for food.	9. And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food;

The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; 12. And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
15. And the name of the second river was called Gihon, the same that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
16. And the name of the third river was Hiddekel, that which goeth toward the east of Assyria.	13. And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
17. And the fourth river was Euphrates.	14. And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
18. And I, the Lord God, took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden, to dress it, and to keep it.	15. And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
19. And I, the Lord God, commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat;	16. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
20. But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it;	17. But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it:
21. Nevertheless, thou mayest choose for thyself, for it is given unto thee; but remember that I forbid it;
22. For in the day thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.	for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
23. And I, the Lord God, said unto mine Only Begotten, that it was not good that the man should be alone;	18. And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone;
24. Wherefore, I will make an help meet for him.	I will make him an help meet for him.
25. And out of the ground, I the Lord God, formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and commanded that they should come unto Adam, to see what he would call them.	19. And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them:
26. And they were also living souls; for I, God, breathed into them the breath of life, and commanded that whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that should be the name thereof.	and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
27. And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but as for Adam, there was not found an help meet for him.	20. And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
28. And I, the Lord God, caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept, and I took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in the stead thereof; and the rib, which I, the Lord God had taken from man, made I a woman, and brought her unto the man.	21. And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22. And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
29. And Adam said, This I know now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She shall be called woman, because she was taken out of man.	23. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
30. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife; and they shall be one flesh.	24. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
31. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.	25. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
CHAPTER 3
1. And I, the Lord God, spake unto Moses, saying, That Satan whom thou hast commanded in the name of mine Only Begotten, is the same which was from the beginning;
2. And he came before me, saying, Behold I, send me, I will be thy Son, and I will redeem all mankind, that one soul shall not be lost, and surely I will do it; wherefore, give me thine honor.
3. But behold, my beloved Son, which was my beloved and chosen from the beginning, said unto me: Father, thy will be done, and the glory be thine forever.
4. Wherefore, because that Satan rebelled against me, and sought to destroy the agency of man, which I, the Lord God, had given him; and also that I should give unto him mine own power; by the power of mine Only Begotten I caused that he should be cast down; and he became Satan.
5. Yea, even the devil, the father of all lies, to deceive, and to blind men, and to lead them captive at his will, even as many as would not hearken unto my voice.	CHAPTER 3
6. And now, the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field, which I, the Lord God, had made.	1. Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made.
7. And Satan put it into the heart of the serpent, for he had drawn away many after him; and he sought also to beguile Eve, for he knew not the mind of God; wherefore, he sought to destroy the world.
8. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden. And he spake by the mouth of the serpent.	And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
9. And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden; but of the fruit of the tree which thou beholdest in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.	2. And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 3. But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
10. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die; for God doth know, that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.	4. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5. For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
11. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it became pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make her wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat; and gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat.	6. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
12. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they had been naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.	7. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
13. And they heard the voice of the Lord God, as they were walking in the garden, in the cool of the day.	8. And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day:
14. And Adam and his wife went to hide themselves from the presence of the Lord God, amongst the trees of the garden.	and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden.
15. And I, the Lord God, called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where goest thou? And he said, I heard thy voice, in the garden, and I was afraid, because I beheld that I was naked, and I hid myself.	9. And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? 10. And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
16. And I, the Lord God, said unto Adam, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat, if so thou shouldst surely die?	11. And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
17. And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest me, and commanded that she should remain with me, she gave me of the fruit of the tree, and I did eat.	12. And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
18. And I, the Lord God, said unto the woman, What is this thing which thou hast done?	13. And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done?
19. And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.	And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
20. And I, the Lord God, said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou shalt be cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life;	14. And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
21. And I will put enmity between thee and the woman; between thy seed and her seed; and he shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.	15. And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
22. Unto the woman, I, the Lord God, said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow, and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children, and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.	16. Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
23. And unto Adam, I, the Lord God, said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the fruit of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it, cursed shall be the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;	17. And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
24. Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;	18. Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
25. By the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, until thou shalt return unto the ground, for thou shalt surely die; for out of it wast thou taken, for dust thou wast, and unto dust shalt thou return.	19. In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
26. And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living; for thus have I, the Lord God, called the first of all women, which are many.	20. And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
27. Unto Adam, and also unto his wife, did I, the Lord God, make coats of skins, and clothed them.	21. Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
28. And I, the Lord God, said unto mine Only Begotten, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and partake also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever;	22. And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
29. Therefore, I, the Lord God, will send him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken;	23. Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
30. For, as I, the Lord God, liveth, even so my words cannot return void, for, as thy go forth out of my mouth, they must be fulfilled.
31. So I drove out the man, and I placed at the east of the garden of Eden, cherubim, and a flaming sword, which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.	24. So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
32. (And these are the words which I spake unto my servant Moses. And they are true, even as I will.
33. And I have spoken them unto you. See thou show them unto no man, until I command you, except they that believe.) Amen.
CHAPTER 4
1. And it came to pass, that after I, the Lord God, had driven them out, that Adam began to till the earth, and to have dominion over all the beasts of the field, and to eat his bread by the sweat of his brow, as I, the Lord had commanded him, and Eve also, his wife, did labor with him.
2. And Adam knew his wife, and she bare unto him sons and daughters, and they began to multiply, and to replenish the earth.
3. And from that time forth, the sons and daughters of Adam began to divide, two and two, in the land, and to till the land, and to tend flocks; and they also begat sons and daughters.
4. And Adam called upon the name of the Lord, and Eve also, his wife; and they heard the voice of the Lord, from the way towards the garden of Eden, speaking unto them, and they saw him not; for they were shut out from his presence.
5. And he gave unto them commandments, that they should worship the Lord their God; and should offer the firstlings of their flocks for an offering unto the Lord.
6. And Adam was obedient unto the commandments of the Lord. And after many days, an angel of the Lord appeared unto Adam, saying, Why dost thou offer sacrifices unto the Lord? And Adam said unto him, I know not, save the Lord commanded me.
7. And then the angel spake, saying, This thing is a similitude of the sacrifice of the Only Begotten of the Father, which is full of grace and truth;
8. Wherefore, thou shalt do all that thou doest, in the name of the Son. And thou shalt repent, and call upon God, in the name of the Son for evermore.
9. And in that day, the Holy Ghost fell upon Adam, which beareth record of the Father and the Son, saying, I am the Only Begotten of the Father from the beginning, henceforth and forever; that, as thou hast fallen, thou mayest be redeemed, and all mankind, even as many as will.
10. And in that day Adam blessed God, and was filled, and began to prophesy concerning all the families of the earth; saying, Blessed be the name of God, for, because of my transgression my eyes are opened, and in this life I shall have joy, and again, in the flesh I shall see God.
11. And Eve, his wife, heard all these things and was glad, saying, Were it not for our transgression, we never should have known good and evil, and the joy of our redemption, and the eternal life which God giveth unto all the obedient.
12. And Adam and Eve blessed the name of God; and they made all things known unto their sons and daughters.
13. And Satan came among them, saying, I am also a son of God, and he commanded them, saying, Believe it not. And they believed it not; and they loved Satan more than God. And men began from that time forth to be carnal, sensual and devilish.
CHAPTER 5
1. And the Lord God called upon men, by the Holy Ghost, everywhere, and commanded them that they should repent;
2. And as many as believed in the Son, and repented of their sins, should be saved. And as many as believed not, and repented not, should be damned. And the words went forth out of the mouth of God, in a firm decree, wherefore they must be fulfilled.
3. And Adam ceased not to call upon God; and Eve also his wife.	CHAPTER 4
4. And Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord; wherefore he may not reject his words. But, behold, also Cain hearkened not saying, Who is the Lord, that I should know him?	1. And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.
5. And she again conceived, and bare his brother Abel. And Abel hearkened unto the voice of the Lord. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.	2. And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
6. And Cain loved Satan more than God. And Satan commanded him, saying, Make an offering unto the Lord. And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord.	3. And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord.
7. And Abel, he also brought, of the firstlings of his flock, and of the fat thereof; and the Lord had respect unto Abel, and to his offering, but unto Cain, and to his offering, he had not respect.	4. And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering: 5. But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect.
8. Now Satan knew this, and it pleased him. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.	And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
9. And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? Why is thy countenance fallen? If thou doest well thou shalt be accepted, and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door; and Satan desireth to have thee, and except thou shalt hearken unto my commandments, I will deliver thee up, and it shall be unto thee according to his desire; and thou shalt rule over him, for from this time forth thou shalt be the father of his lies.	6. And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7. If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
10. Thou shalt be called Perdition, for thou wast also before the world, and it shall be said in time to come, that these abominations were had from Cain, for he rejected the greater counsel, which was had from God; and this is a cursing which I will put upon thee, except thou repent.
11. And Cain was wroth, and listened not any more to the voice of the Lord, neither to Abel his brother, who walked in holiness before the Lord.
12. And Adam also, and his wife, mourned before the Lord, because of Cain and his brethren.
13. And it came to pass, that Cain took one of his brother's daughters to wife, and they loved Satan more than God.
14. And Satan said unto Cain, Swear unto me by thy throat, and if thou tell it thou shalt die; and swear thy brethren by their heads, and by the living God, that they tell it not; for if they tell it they shall surely die; and this that thy father may not know it; and this day I will deliver thy brother Abel into thine hands.
15. And Satan swear unto Cain, that he would do according to his commands. And all these things were done in secret.
16. And Cain said, Truly I am Mahan, the master of this great secret, that I may murder and get gain. Wherefore Cain was called Master Mahan; and he gloried in his wickedness.
17. And Cain went into the field, and Cain talked with Abel his brother; and it came to pass, that while they were in the field, Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.	8. And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
18. And Cain gloried in that which he had done, saying, I am free; surely the flocks of my brother falleth into my hands.
19. And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel, thy brother? And he said, I know not, am I my brother's keeper?	9. And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?
20. And the Lord said, What hast thou done? The voice of thy brother's blood cries unto me from the ground.	10. And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
21. And now, thou shalt be cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand.	11. And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;
22. When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.	12. When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
23. And Cain said unto the Lord, Satan tempted me, because of my brother's flock; and I was wroth also, for his offering thou didst accept, and not mine.	13. And Cain said unto the Lord,
24. My punishment is greater than I can bear. Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the Lord, and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that he that findeth me shall slay me, because of mine iniquities, for these things are not hid from the Lord.	My punishment is greater than I can bear. 14. Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
25. And I, the Lord, said unto him, Whosoever slayeth thee, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold; and I, the Lord, set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.	15. And the Lord said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
26. And Cain was shut out from the presence of the Lord, and with his wife and many of his brethren, dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.	16. And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
27. And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bare Enoch, and he also begat many sons and daughters. And he builded a city, and he called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch.	17. And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
28. And unto Enoch was born Irad, and other sons and daughters, and Irad begat Mehujael, and other sons and daughters.	18. And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael:
29. And Mehujael begat Methusael, and other sons and daughters. And Methusael begat Lamech.	and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech.
30. And Lamech took unto himself two wives, the name of one being Adah, and the name of the other, Zillah.	19. And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
31. And Adah bare Jabal; he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and they were keepers of cattle; and his brother's name was Jubal, who was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.	20. And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle. 21. And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.
32. And Zillah, she also bare Tubal Cain, an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron; and the sister of Tubal Cain was called Naamah.	22. And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah.
33. And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech; hearken unto my speech, for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.	23. And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
34. If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech shall be seventy and sevenfold.	24. If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
35. For, Lamech having entered into a covenant with Satan, after the manner of Cain, wherein he became Master Mahan, master of that great secret which was administered unto Cain by Satan;
36. And Irad, the son of Enoch, having known their secret, began to reveal it unto the sons of Adam; wherefore, Lamech, being angry, slew him, not like unto Cain his brother Abel for the sake of getting gain; but he slew him for the oath's sake;
37. For, from the days of Cain, there was a secret combination, and their works were in the dark, and they knew every man his brother.
38. Wherefore the Lord cursed Lamech and his house, and all they that had covenanted with Satan; for they kept not the commandments of God. And it displeased God, and he ministered not unto them.
39. And their works were abominations, and began to spread among all the sons of men. And it was among the sons of men.
40. And among the daughters of men, these things were not spoken; because that lamech had spoken the secret unto his wives, and they rebelled against him, and declared these things abroad, and had not compassion.
41. Wherefore Lamech was despised, and cast out, and came not among the sons of men, lest he should die.
42. And thus the works of darkness began to prevail among all the sons of men.
43. And God cursed the earth with a sore curse, and was angry with the wicked, with all the sons of men whom he had made, for they would not hearken unto his voice, nor believe on his Only Begotten Son, even him whom he declared should come in the meridian of time; who was prepared from before the foundation of the world.
44. And thus the gospel began to be preached from the beginning, being declared by holy angels, sent forth from the presence of God; and by his own voice, and by the gift of the Holy Ghost.
45. And thus all things were confirmed unto Adam by an holy ordinance; and the gospel preached; and a decree sent forth that it should be in the world until the end thereof; and thus it was. Amen.
CHAPTER 6
1. And Adam hearkened unto the voice of God, and called upon his sons to repent.
2. And Adam knew his wife again, and she bare a son, and he called his name Seth.	25. And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth:
3. And Adam glorified the name of God, for he said, God hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel whom Cain slew.	For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
4. And God revealed himself unto Seth, and he rebelled not, but offered an acceptable sacrifice like unto his brother Abel. And to him also was born a son, and he called his name Enos.	26. And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos:
5. And then began these men to call upon the name of the Lord; and the Lord blessed them; and a book of remembrance was kept in the which was recorded in the language of Adam, for it was given unto as many as called upon God, to write by the Spirit of inspiration;	then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.
6. And by them their children were taught to read and write, having a language which was pure and undefiled.
7. Now this same priesthood which was in the beginning, shall be in the end of the world also.
8. Now this prophecy Adam spake, as he was moved upon by the Holy Ghost.	CHAPTER 5
9. And a genealogy was kept of the children of God. And this was the book of the generations of Adam, saying, In the day that God created man, (in the likeness of God made he him,) in the image of his own body, male and female created he them, and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created, and became living souls, in the land, upon the footstool of God.	1. This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; 2. Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
10. And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his own image, and called his name Seth.	3. And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:

And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.
12. Seth lived one hundred and five years, and begat Enos, and prophesied in all his days, and taught his son Enos in the ways of God. Wherefore Enos prophesied also. And Seth lived after he begat Enos, eight hundred and seven years, and begat many sons and daughters.	6. And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos: 7. And Seth lived after he begat Enos eight hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters:
13. And the children of men were numerous upon all the face of the land. And in those days, Satan had great dominion among men, and raged in their hearts; and from thenceforth came wars and bloodshed.
14. And a man's hand was against his own brother in administering death, because of secret works, seeking for power. And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years; and he died.	8. And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years: and he died.
15. And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan. And Enos, and the residue of the people of God, came out from the land which was called Shulon, and dwelt in a land of promise, which he called after his own son, whom he had named Cainan.	9. And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan:
16. And Enos lived, after he begat Cainan, eight hundred and fifteen years, and begat many sons and daughters. And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years; and he died.	10. And Enos lived after he begat Cainan eight hundred and fifteen years, and begat sons and daughters: 11. And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years: and he died.
17. And Cainan lived seventy years, and begat Mahalaleel.	12. And Cainan lived seventy years, and begat Mahalaleel:
18. And Cainan lived after he begat Mahalaleel, eight hundred and forty years, and begat sons and daughters. And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years; and he died.	13. And Cainan lived after he begat Mahalaleel eight hundred and forty years, and begat sons and daughters: 14. And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years: and he died.
19. And Mahalaleel lived sixty-five years, and begat Jared.	15. And Mahalaleel lived sixty and five years, and begat Jared:
20. And Mahalaleel lived after he begat Jared, eight hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters. And all the days of Mahalaleel were eight hundred and ninety-five years; and he died.	16. And Mahalaleel lived after he begat Jared eight hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters: 17. And all the days of Mahalaleel were eight hundred ninety and five years: and he died.

22. And Jared lived, after he begat Enoch, eight hundred years, and begat sons and daughters. And Jared taught Enoch in all the ways of God.	19. And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
23. And this is the genealogy of the sons of Adam, who was the son of God, with whom God himself conversed.
24. And they were preachers of righteousness, and spake and prophesied, and called upon all men everywhere to repent. And faith was taught unto the children of men.
25. And it came to pass, that all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died.	20. And all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty and two years: and he died.
26. And Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begat Methuselah. And it came to pass that Enoch journeyed in the land, among the people; and as he journeyed the Spirit of God descended out of heaven, and abode upon him;	21. And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:
27. And he heard a voice from heaven, saying, Enoch, my son, prophesy unto this people, and say unto them, Repent, for thus saith the Lord, I am angry with this people, and my fierce anger is kindled against them; for their hearts have waxed hard, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes cannot see afar off.
28. And for these many generations, even since the day that I created them, have they gone astray, and have denied me, and have sought their own counsels in the dark; and in their own abominations have they devised murder, and have not kept the commandments which I gave unto their father Adam.
29. Wherefore, they have forsworn themselves, and by their oaths they have brought upon themselves death.
30. And an hell I have prepared for them, if they repent not;
31. And this is a decree which I have sent forth in the beginning of the world, from mine own mouth, from the foundation thereof; and by the mouths of my servants, thy fathers, have I decreed it; even as it shall be sent forth in the world, unto the end thereof.
32. And when Enoch had heard these words, he bowed himself to the earth, before the Lord, and spake before the Lord, saying, Why is it that I have found favor in thy sight, and am but a lad, and all the people hate me, for I am slow of speech; wherefore am I thy servant?
33. And the Lord said unto Enoch, Go forth, and do as I have commanded thee, and no man shall pierce thee.
34. Open thy mouth, and it shall be filled, and I will give thee utterance; for all flesh is in my hands, and I will do as seemeth me good.
35. Say unto this people, choose ye this day to serve the Lord God who made you.
36. Behold, my Spirit is upon you; wherefore all thy words will I justify, and the mountains shall flee before you, and the rivers shall turn from their course; and thou shalt abide in me, and I in you; therefore walk with me.
37. And the Lord spake unto Enoch, and said unto him, Anoint thine eyes with clay, and wash them, and thou shalt see; and he did so.
38. And he beheld the spirits that God had created, and he beheld also things which were not visible to the natural eye; and from thenceforth came the saying abroad in the land, A seer hath the Lord raised up unto his people.
39. And it came to pass, that Enoch went forth in the land, among the people, standing upon the hills, and the high places, and cried with a loud voice, testifying against their works.
40. And all men were offended because of him; and they came forth to hear him upon the high places, saying unto the tent-keepers, Tarry ye here and keep the tents while we go yonder to behold the seer, for he prophesieth; and there is a strange thing in the land, a wild man hath come among us.
41. And it came to pass when they heard him, no man laid hands on him, for fear came on them all that heard him, for he walked with God.
42. And there came a man unto him, whose name was Mahijah, and said unto him, Tell us plainly who thou art, and from whence thou comest.
43. And he said unto them, I came out from the land of Cainan, the land of my fathers, a land of righteousness unto this day; and my father taught me in all the ways of God.
44. And it came to pass, as I journeyed from the land of Cainan by the sea east, I beheld a vision; and lo, the heavens I saw, and the Lord spake with me, and gave me commandment; wherefore for this cause, to keep the commandment, I speak forth these words.
45. And Enoch continued his speech, saying, The Lord which spake with me, the same is the God of heaven, and he is my God and your God, and ye are my brethren; and why counsel ye yourselves, and deny the God of heaven?
46. The heavens he made; the earth is his footstool, and the foundation thereof is his; behold, he laid it, and hosts of men hath he brought in upon the face thereof.
47. And death hath come upon our fathers; nevertheless, we know them, and cannot deny, and even the first of all we know, even Adam; for a book of remembrance we have written among us, according to the pattern given by the finger of God; and it is given in our own language.
48. And as Enoch spake forth the words of God, the people trembled and could not stand in his presence.
49. And he said unto them, Because that Adam fell, we are; and by his fall came death, and we are made partakers of misery and woe.
50. Behold, Satan hath come among the children of men, and tempteth them to worship him; and men have become carnal, sensual, and devilish, and are shut out from the presence of God.
51. But God hath made known unto our fathers, that all men must repent.
52. And he called upon our father Adam, by his own voice, saying, I am God; I made the world, and men before they were in the flesh.
53. And he also said unto him, If thou wilt, turn unto me and hearken unto my voice, and believe, and repent of all thy transgressions, and be baptized, even in water, in the name of mine Only Begotten Son, who is full of grace and truth, which is Jesus Christ, the only name which shall be given under heaven, whereby salvation shall come unto the children of men; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, asking all things in his name, and whatsoever ye shall ask it shall be given you.
54. And our father Adam spake unto the Lord, and said, Why is it that men must repent, and be baptized in water?
55. And the Lord said unto Adam, Behold, I have forgiven thee thy transgression in the garden of Eden.
56. Hence came the saying abroad among the people, that the Son of God hath atoned for original guilt, wherein the sins of the parents cannot be answered upon the heads of the children, for they are whole from the foundation of the world.
57. And the Lord spake unto Adam, saying, Inasmuch as thy children are conceived in sin, even so, when they begin to grow up sin conceiveth in their hearts, and they taste the bitter, that they may know to prize the good.
58. And it is given unto them to know good from evil; wherefore, they are agents unto themselves.
59. And I have given unto you another law and commandment; wherefore teach it unto your children, that all men, everywhere, must repent, or they can in no wise inherit the kingdom of God.
60. For no unclean thing can dwell there, or dwell in his presence; for, in the language of Adam, Man of Holiness is his name; and the name of his Only Begotten is the son of Man, even Jesus Christ, a righteous judge, who shall come in the meridian of time.
61. Therefore I give unto you a commandment, to teach these things freely unto your children, saying, that by reason of transgression cometh the fall, which fall bringeth death; and inasmuch as ye were born into the world by water and blood, and the spirit, which I have made, and so become of dust a living soul;
62. Even so ye must be born again, into the kingdom of heaven, of water, and of the Spirit, and be cleansed by blood, even the blood of mine Only Begotten; that ye may be sanctified from all sin; and enjoy the words of eternal life in this world, and eternal life in the world to come; even immortal glory.
63. For, by the water ye keep the commandment; by the Spirit ye are justified; and by the blood ye are sanctified.
64. Therefore it is given to abide in you, the record of heaven, the Comforter, the peaceable things of immortal glory, the truth of all things, that which quickeneth all things which maketh alive all things, that which knoweth all things, and hath all power according to wisdom, mercy, truth, justice and judgment.
65. And now, behold, I say unto you, This is the plan of salvation unto all men, through the blood of mine Only Begotten, who shall come in the meridian of time.
66. And, behold, all things have their likeness; and all things are created and made to bear record of me; both things which are temporal, and things which are spiritual; things which are in the heavens above, and things which are on the earth, and things which are in the earth, and things which are under the earth, both above and beneath, all things bear record of me.
67. And it came to pass, when the Lord had spoken with Adam our father, that Adam cried unto the Lord, and he was caught away by the Spirit of the Lord, and was carried down into the water, and was laid under the water, and was brought forth out of the water; and thus he was baptized.
68. And the Spirit of God descended upon him, and thus he was born of the Spirit, and became quickened in the inner man.
69. And he heard a voice out of heaven, saying, Thou art baptized with fire and with the Holy Ghost; this is the record of the Father and the Son, from henceforth and forever;
70. And thou art after the order of him who was without beginning of days or end of years, from all eternity to all eternity.
71. Behold, thou art one in me, a son of God; and thus may all become my sons. Amen.
CHAPTER 7
1. And it came to pass, that Enoch continued his speech, saying, Behold, our father Adam taught these things, and many have believed, and become the sons of God; and many have believed not, and have perished in their sins, and are looking forth with fear, in torment, for the fiery indignation of the wrath of God to be poured out upon them.
2. And from that time forth, Enoch began to prophesy, saying unto the people, that, as I was journeying, and stood in the place Mahujah, and cried unto the Lord, there came a voice out of heaven, saying, Turn ye and get ye upon the mount Simeon.
3. And it came to pass, that I turned and went up on the mount; and as I stood upon the mount, I beheld the heavens open, and I was clothed upon with glory.
4. And I saw the Lord, and he stood before my face, and he talked with me, even as a man talketh one with another, face to face; and he said unto me, Look, and I will show unto thee the world for the space of many generations.
5. And it came to pass, that I beheld in the valley of Shum, and, lo! a great people which dwelt in tents, which were the people of shum.
6. And again the Lord said unto me, Look, and I looked towards the north, and I beheld the people of Cainan, which dwelt in tents.
7. And the Lord said unto me, Prophesy; and I prophesied saying,
8. Behold, the people of Cainan which are numerous, shall go forth in battle array against the people of Shum, and shall slay them, that they shall be utterly destroyed.
9. And the people of Cainan shall divide themselves in the land, and the land shall be barren and unfruitful, and none other people shall dwell there, but the people of Cainan; for, behold, the Lord shall curse the land with much heat, and the barrenness thereof shall go forth forever.
10. And there was blackness came upon all the children of Cainan, that they were despised among all people.
11. And it came to pass, that the Lord said unto me, Look, and I looked, and I beheld the land of Sharon, and the land of Enoch, and the land of Omner, and the land of Heni, and the land of Shem, and the land of Haner, and the land of Hanannihah, and all the inhabitants thereof.
12. And the Lord said unto me, Go forth to this people, and say unto them, Repent; lest I come out and smite them with a curse, and they die.
13. And he gave unto me a commandment, that I should baptize in the name of the Father, and of the Son, who is full of grace and truth, and the Holy Ghost which beareth record of the Father and the Son.
14. And it came to pass, that Enoch continued to call upon the people, save it were the people of Cainan, to repent.
15. And so great was the faith of Enoch, that he led the people of God, and their enemies came to battle against them, and he spake the word of the Lord, and the earth trembled, and the mountains fled, even according to his command.
16. And the rivers of water were turned out of their course, and the roar of the lions was heard out of the wilderness.
17. And all nations feared greatly, so powerful was the word of Enoch, and so great was the power of the language which God had given him.
18. There also came up a land out of the depths of the sea; and so great was the fear of the enemies of the people of God, that they fled and stood afar off, and went upon the land which came up out of the depths of the sea.
19. And the giants of the land also stood afar off; and there went forth a curse upon all the people which fought against God.
20. And from that time forth, there were wars, and bloodshed among them; but the Lord came and dwelt with his people, and they dwelt in righteousness.
21. And the fear of the Lord was upon all nations, so great was the glory of the Lord which was upon his people.
22. And the Lord blessed the land, and they were blessed upon the mountains, and upon the high places, and did flourish.
23. And the Lord called his people, Zion, because they were of one heart and of one mind, and dwelt in righteousness; and there were no poor among them.
24. And Enoch continued his preaching in righteousness unto the people of God.
25. And it came to pass in his days, that he built a city that was called the city of Holiness, even Zion.
26. And it came to pass, that Enoch talked with the Lord, and he said unto the Lord, Surely, Zion shall dwell in safety forever. But the Lord said unto Enoch, Zion have I blessed, but the residue of the people have I cursed.
27. And it came to pass, that the Lord showed unto Enoch all the inhabitants of the earth, and he beheld, and lo! Zion in process of time was taken up into heaven.
28. And the Lord said unto Enoch, Behold mine abode forever.
29. And Enoch also beheld the residue of the people which were the sons of Adam, and they were a mixture of all the seed of Adam, save it were the seed of Cain; for the seed of Cain were black, and had not place among them.
30. And after that Zion was taken up into heaven, Enoch beheld, and lo, all the nations of the earth were before him; and there came generation upon generation.
31. And Enoch was high and lifted up, even in the bosom of the Father and the Son of Man; and, behold, the powers of Satan were upon all the face of the earth; and he saw angels descending out of heaven, and he heard a loud voice, saying, Woe! woe! be unto the inhabitants of the earth!
32. And he beheld Satan, and he had a great chain in his hand, and it veiled the whole face of the earth with darkness; and he looked up and laughed, and his angels rejoiced.
33. And Enoch beheld angels descending out of heaven, bearing testimony of the Father, and of the Son.
34. And the Holy Ghost fell on many, and they were caught up by the powers of heaven into Zion.
35. And it came to pass, that the God of heaven looked upon the residue of the people, and wept; and Enoch bore record of it, saying, How is it that the heavens weep, and shed forth their tears as the rain upon the mountains? And Enoch said unto the Lord, How is it that thou canst weep, seeing thou art holy, and from all eternity to all eternity?
36. And were it possible that man could number the particles of the earth, yea, and millions of earths like this, it would not be a beginning to the number of thy creations;
37. And thy curtains are stretched out still, and thou art there, and thy bosom is there; and also, thou art just, thou art merciful and kind forever;
38. Thou hast taken Zion to thine own bosom, from all thy creations, from all eternity to all eternity; and naught but peace, justice, and truth is the habitation of thy throne; and mercy shall go before thy face and have no end. How is it that thou canst weep?
39. The Lord said unto Enoch, Behold, these thy brethren, they are the workmanship of mine own hands, and I gave unto them their intelligence in the day that I created them.
40. And in the garden of Eden gave I unto man his agency; and unto thy brethren have I said, and also gave commandment, that they should love one another; and that they should choose me their Father.
41. But, behold, they are without affection, and they hate their own blood; and the fire of mine indignation is kindled against them; and in my hot displeasure will I send in the floods upon them; for my fierce anger is kindled against them.
42. Behold, I am God; Man of Holiness is my name; Man of Counsel is my name; and Endless and Eternal is my name also. Wherefore I can stretch forth my hands and hold all the creations which I have made, and mine eye can pierce them also.
43. And among all the workmanship of my hands there has not been so great wickedness as among thy brethren; but, behold, their sins shall be upon the heads of their fathers; Satan shall be their father, and misery shall be their doom; and the whole heavens shall weep over them, even all the workmanship of my hands.
44. Wherefore should not the heavens weep, seeing these shall suffer? But, behold, these which thine eyes are upon shall perish in the floods; and, behold, I will shut them up; a prison have I prepared for them, and he whom I have chosen hath pleaded before my face;
45. Wherefore he suffereth for their sins, inasmuch as they will repent, in the day that my chosen shall return unto me; and until that day they shall be in torment.
46. Wherefore for this shall the heavens weep, yea, and all the workmanship of my hands.
47. And it came to pass, that the Lord spake unto Enoch, and told Enoch all the doings of the children of men.
48. Wherefore Enoch knew and looked upon their wickedness, and their misery; and wept, and stretched forth his arms, and his heart swelled wide as eternity, and his bowels yearned, and all eternity shook.
49. And Enoch saw Noah also, and his family, that the posterity of all the sons of Noah should be saved with a temporal salvation.
50. Wherefore Enoch saw that Noah built an ark, and the Lord smiled upon it, and held it in his own hand; but upon the residue of the wicked came the floods and swallowed them up.
51. And as Enoch saw thus, he had bitterness of soul, and wept over his brethren, and said unto the heavens, I will refuse to be comforted.
52. But the Lord said unto Enoch, Lift up your heart and be glad, and look. And it came to pass, that Enoch looked, and from Noah he beheld all the families of the earth, and he cried unto the Lord, saying, When shall the day of the Lord come? When shall the blood of the righteous be shed, that all they that mourn may be sanctified, and have eternal life?
53. And the Lord said, It shall be in the meridian of time; in the days of wickedness and vengeance.
54. And, behold, Enoch saw the day of the coming of the son of Man, even in the flesh; and his soul rejoiced, saying, The righteous is lifted up; and the Lamb is slain from the foundation of the world; and through faith I am in the bosom of the Father; and behold, Zion is with me!
55. And it came to pass, that Enoch looked upon the earth, and he heard a voice from the bowels thereof, saying, Woe! woe! is me, the mother of men! I am pained, I am weary, because of the wickedness of my children! When shall I rest, and be cleansed from the filthiness which has gone forth out of me? When will my Creator sanctify me, that I may rest, and righteousness for a season abide upon my face?
56. And when Enoch heard the earth mourn, he wept, and cried unto the Lord, saying, O Lord, wilt thou not have compassion upon the earth? wilt thou not bless the children of Noah?
57. And it came to pass, that Enoch continued his cry unto the Lord, saying, I ask thee, O Lord, in the name of thine Only Begotten, even Jesus Christ, that thou wilt have mercy upon Noah, and his seed, that the earth might never more be covered by the floods.
58. And the Lord could not withhold; and he covenanted with Enoch, and sware unto him with an oath, that the would stay the floods; that he would call upon the children of Noah; and he sent forth an unalterable decree, that a remnant of his seed should always be found among all nations, while the earth should stand.
59. And the Lord said, Blessed is he through whose seed Messiah shall come; for he saith, I am Messiah, the King of Zion, the Rock of heaven, which is broad as eternity; and whoso cometh in at the gate, and climbeth up by me shall never fall.
60. Wherefore blessed are they of whom I have spoken, for they shall come forth with songs of everlasting joy.
61. And it came to pass, that Enoch cried unto the Lord, saying, When the Son of Man cometh in the flesh shall the earth rest? I pray thee show me these things.
62. And the Lord said unto Enoch, Look; and he looked, and beheld the Son of Man lifted up on the cross, after the manner of men.
63. And he heard a loud voice, and the heavens were veiled; and all the creations of God mourned, and the earth groaned; and the rocks were rent; and the saints arose, and were crowned at the right hand of the son of Man, with crowns of glory.
64. And as many of the spirits as were in prison came forth and stood on the right hand of God. And the remainder were reserved in chains of darkness until the judgment of the great day.
65. And again Enoch wept, and cried unto the Lord, saying, When shall the earth rest?
66. And Enoch beheld the Son of Man ascend up unto the Father; and he called unto the Lord, saying, Wilt thou not come again upon the earth? for inasmuch as thou art God, and I know thee, and thou hast sworn unto me, and commanded me that I should ask in the name of thine Only Begotten; thou hast made me, and given unto me a right to thy throne, and not of myself, but through thine own grace; and wherefore I ask thee if thou wilt not come again on the earth?
67. And the Lord said unto Enoch, As I live, even so will I come in the last days, in the days of wickedness and vengeance, to fulfill the oath which I made unto you concerning the children of Noah.
68. And the day shall come that the earth shall rest. But before that day the heavens shall be darkened, and a veil of darkness shall cover the earth; and the heavens shall shake, and also the earth.
69. And great tribulations shall be among the children of men, but my people will I preserve; and righteousness will I send down out of heaven, and truth will I send forth out of the earth, to bear testimony of mine Only Begotten; his resurrection from the dead; yea, and also the resurrection of all men.
70. And righteousness and truth will I cause to sweep the earth as with a flood, to gather out mine own elect from the four quarters of the earth, unto a place which I shall prepare; an holy city, that my people may gird up their loins, and be looking forth for the time of my coming; for there shall be my tabernacle, and it shall be called Zion; a New Jerusalem.
71. And the Lord said unto Enoch, Then shalt thou and all thy city meet them there; and we will receive them into our bosom; and they shall see us, and we will fall upon their necks, and they shall fall upon our necks, and we will kiss each other;
72. And there shall be mine abode, and it shall be Zion, which shall come forth out of all the creations which I have made; and for the space of a thousand years shall the earth rest.
73. And it came to pass, that Enoch saw the day of the coming of the Son of Man, in the last days, to dwell on the earth, in righteousness, for the space of a thousand years.
74. But before that day, he saw great tribulation among the wicked; and he also saw the sea, that it was troubled, and men's hearts failing them, looking forth with fear for the judgment of the Almighty God, which should come upon the wicked.
75. And the Lord showed Enoch all things, even unto the end of the world. And he saw the day of the righteous, the hour of their redemption, and received a fullness of joy.
76. And all the days of Zion, in the days of Enoch, were three hundred and sixty-five years.
77. And Enoch and all his people walked with God, and he dwelt in the midst of Zion.	22. And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
78. And it came to pass, that Zion was not, for God received it up into his own bosom; and from thence went forth the saying, Zion is fled. And all the days of Enoch were four hundred and thirty years.	23. And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: 24. And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.
79. And it came to pass, that Methuselah, the son of Enoch, was not taken, that the covenants of the Lord might be fulfilled which he made to Enoch; for he truly covenanted with Enoch, that Noah should be of the fruit of his loins.
80. And it came to pass, that Methuselah prophesied that from his loins should spring all the kingdoms of the earth; (through Noah,) and he took glory unto himself.
81. And there came forth a great famine into the land, and the Lord cursed the earth with a sore curse, and many of the inhabitants thereof died.
82. And it came to pass, that Methuselah lived one hundred and eighty-seven years, and begat Lamech; and Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech, seven hundred and eighty-two years, and begat sons and daughters. And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred and sixty- nine years, and he died.	25. And Methuselah lived an hundred eighty and seven years, and begat Lamech: 26. And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and daughters: 27. And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died.
83. And Lamech lived one hundred and eighty-two years, and begat a son, and he called his name Noah, saying, This son shall comfort us concerning our work, and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the Lord hath cursed.	28. And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son: 29. And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the Lord hath cursed.
84. And Lamech lived after he begat Noah, five hundred and ninety- five years, and begat sons and daughters. And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred and seventy-seven years; and he died.	30. And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred ninety and five years, and begat sons and daughters: 31. And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died.
85. And Noah was four hundred and fifty years old, and begat Japheth, and forty-two years afterwards, he begat Shem, of her who was the mother of Japheth, and when he was five hundred years old, he begat Ham.	32. And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
CHAPTER 8
1. And Noah and his sons hearkened unto the Lord, and gave heed; and they were called the sons of God.	CHAPTER 6
2. And when these men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, the sons of men saw that their daughters were fair, and they took them wives even as they chose.	1. And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2. That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
3. And the Lord said unto Noah, The daughters of thy sons have sold themselves, for behold, mine anger is kindled against the sons of men, for they will not hearken to my voice.
4. And it came to pass, that Noah prophesied, and taught the things of God, even as it was in the beginning.
5. And the Lord said unto Noah, My Spirit shall not always strive with man, for he shall know that all flesh shall die, yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years; and if men do not repent, I will send in the floods upon them.	3. And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
6. And in those days there were giants on the earth, and they sought Noah to take away his life;	4. There were giants in the earth in those days;
7. But the Lord was with Noah, and the power of the Lord was upon him; and the Lord ordained Noah after his own order, and commanded him that he should go forth and declare his gospel unto the children of men, even as it was given unto Enoch.
8. And it came to pass that Noah called upon the children of men, that they should repent, but they hearkened not unto his words.
9. And also, after that they had heard him, they came up before him, saying, Behold, we are the sons of God, have we not taken unto ourselves the daughters of men? and are we not eating and drinking, and marrying and given in marriage? and our wives bear unto us children, and the same are mighty men, which are like unto them of old, men of great renown. And they hearkened not unto the words of Noah.	and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
10. And God saw that the wickedness of man had become great in the earth; and every man was lifted up in the imagination of the thoughts of his heart; being only evil continually.	5. And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
11. And it came to pass, that Noah continued his preaching unto the people, saying, Hearken and give heed unto my words, believe and repent of your sins and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, even as our fathers did, and ye shall receive the Holy Ghost, that ye may have all things made manifest;
12. And if you do not this, the floods will come in upon you; nevertheless, they hearkened not.
13. And it repented Noah, and his heart was pained, that the Lord had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.	6. And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
14. And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created, from the face of the earth, both man and beast, and the creeping things, and the fowls of the air.	7. And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air;
15. For it repenteth Noah that I have created them, and that I have made them; and he hath called upon me, for they have sought his life.	for it repenteth me that I have made them.
16. And thus Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord; for Noah was a just man, and perfect in his generation; and he walked with God, and also his three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.	8. But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. 9. These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. 10. And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
17. The earth was corrupt before God; and it was filled with violence. And God looked upon the earth, and behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth.	11. The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. 12. And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.

And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.
23. But with thee will I establish my covenant, even as I have sworn unto thy father, Enoch, that of thy posterity shall come all nations.	18. But with thee will I establish my covenant;
24. And thou shalt come into the ark, thou and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with them.	and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
25. And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every kind shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep alive with thee; they shall be male and female.	19.

28. Thus did Noah, according to all that God commanded him.	22. Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.

2 And he lifted up his eyes and looked, and lo, three men stood by him; and when he saw, he ran to meet them from his tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, and said;	2 And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, 3 And said,
3 My brethren, if now I have found favor in your sight, pass not away I pray you from thy servant.	My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
4 Let a little water I pray you be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree, and I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that you shall pass on; for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.	4 Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree: 5 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
5 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead, and make cakes upon the hearth.	6 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.
6 And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf, tender and good, and gave it unto a young man, and he hasted to dress it.	7 And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it.
7 And he took butter and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set them before them, and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.	8 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.
8 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.	9 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
9 And one of them blessed Abraham, and he said, I will certainly return unto thee from my journey, and lo, according to the time of life, Sarah thy wife shall have a son.	10 And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son.
10 And Sarah heard him, in the tent door.	And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.
11 And now Abraham and Sarah being old, and stricken in age; therefore it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women;	11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I have waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?	12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
13 And the angel of the Lord said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old? Is anything too hard for the Lord?	13 And the Lord said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old? 14 Is any thing too hard for the Lord?
14 At the time appointed, behold, I will return unto thee from my journey, which the Lord hath sent me; and according to the time of life thou mayest know that Sarah shall have a son.	At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
15 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay, but thou didst laugh.	15 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.
16 And the angels rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom; and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.	16 And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
17 And the angel of the Lord, said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which the Lord will do for him; seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?	17 And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do; 18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
18 For I know him, that he will command his children, and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment, that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he has spoken of him.	19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
19 And the angel of the Lord said unto Abraham, The Lord said unto us, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous, I will destroy them.	20 And the Lord said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
20 And I will send you, and ye shall go down now, and see that their iniquities are rewarded unto them.	21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it,
21 And ye shall have all things done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me.	which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.
22 And if ye do it not, it shall be upon your heads; for I will destroy them, and you shall know that I will do it, for it shall be before your eyes.
23 And the angels which were holy men, and were sent forth after the order of God, turned their faces from thence and went toward Sodom.	22 And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom:
24 But Abraham stood yet before the Lord, remembering the things which had been told him.	but Abraham stood yet before the Lord.
25 And Abraham drew near to Sodom, and said unto the Lord, calling upon his name, saying, Wilt thou destroy the righteous with the wicked? Wilt thou not spare them?	23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
26 Peradventure there may be fifty righteous within the city, wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that may be therein?	24 Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?
27 O may that be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked; and that the righteous should be as the wicked. 28 O God, may that be far from thee, for shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?	25 That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
29 And the Lord said unto Abraham, If thou findest in Sodom, fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.	26 And the Lord said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
30 And Abraham answered and said, Behold, now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which is able to destroy the city, and lay all the people in dust and ashes;	27 And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which am but dust and ashes:
31 Will the Lord spare them peradventure there lack five of the fifty righteous; wilt thou destroy all the city for their wickedness, if I find there forty and five righteous?	28 Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city for lack of five? And he said, If I find there forty and five, I will not destroy it.
32 And he said, I will not destroy, but spare them.
33 And he spake unto him again, and said, Peradventure there should be forty found there? 34 And he said, I will not destroy it for forty's sake.	29 And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty's sake.
35 And he said again unto the Lord, O, let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there? 36 And he said, I will not destroy them if thou shalt find thirty there.	30 And he said unto him, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
37 And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord; wilt thou destroy them if peradventure there shall twenty be found there?	31 And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord: Peradventure there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for twenty's sake.
38 And he said, I will not destroy them for twenty's sake.
39 And Abraham said unto the Lord, O, let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once, peradventure ten shall be found there? 40 And the Lord said, I will not destroy them for ten's sake. And the Lord ceased speaking with Abraham.	32 And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten's sake.
41 And as soon as he had left communing with the Lord, Abraham went his way. 42 And it came to pass that Abraham returned unto his tent.	33 And the Lord went his way, as soon as he had left communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.
CHAPTER 19	CHAPTER 19
1 And it came to pass, that there came three angels to Sodom in the evening; and Lot sat in the door of his house, in the city of Sodom. 2 And Lot, seeing the angels, rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;	1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
3 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. 4 And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.	2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
5 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.	3 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
6 But before they lay down to rest, the men of the city of Sodom compassed the house round, even men which were both old and young, even the people from every quarter;	4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
7 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in unto thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.	5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
8 And Lot went out of the door, unto them, and shut the door after him, and said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.	6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him, 7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
9 And they said unto him, Stand back. And they were angry with him. 10 And they said among themselves, This one man came in to sojourn among us, and he will needs now make himself to be a judge; now we will deal worse with him than with them.	9 And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them…
11 Wherefore they said unto the man, We will have the men, and thy daughters also; and we will do with them as seemeth us good.
12 Now this was after the wickedness of Sodom.
13 And Lot said, Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, plead with my brethren that I may not bring them out unto you; and ye shall not do unto them as seemeth good in your eyes;	8 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
14 For God will not justify his servant in this thing; wherefore, let me plead with my brethren, this once only, that unto these men ye do nothing, that they may have peace in my house; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
15 And they were angry with Lot and came near to break the door, but the angels of God, which were holy men, put forth their hand and pulled Lot into the house unto them, and shut the door.	9…And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door. 10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
16 And they smote the men with blindness, both small and great, that they could not come at the door. 17 And they were angry, so that they wearied themselves to find the door, and could not find it.	11 And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
18 And these holy men said unto Lot, Hast thou any here besides thy sons-in-law, and thy son's sons and thy daughters?	12 And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters,
19 And they commanded Lot, saying, Whatsoever thou hast in the city, thou shalt bring out of this place, for we will destroy this place;	and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place: 13 For we will destroy this place,
20 Because the cry of them is waxen great, and their abominations have come up before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.	because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.
21 And Lot went out and spake unto his sons-in-law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get ye out of this place, for the Lord will destroy this city.	14 And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the Lord will destroy this city.
22 But he seemed as one that mocked, unto his sons-in-law.	But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.
23 And when the morning came, the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters which are here, lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.	15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
24 And while he lingered the angels laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the Lord being merciful unto them; and they brought them forth, and set them down without the city.	16 And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the Lord being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
25 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad that they said unto them, Escape for your lives; look not behind you, neither stay you in all the plain; escape to the mountain lest you be consumed.	17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
26 And Lot said unto one of them, Oh, not so my Lord! behold now, thy servant has found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy which thou hast showed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil overtake me, and I die.	18 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord: 19 Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:
27 Behold now, here is another city, and this is near to flee unto and it is a little one; oh, let me escape thither, and may the Lord not destroy it, and my soul shall live.	20 Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
28 And the angel said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken; haste thee, escape thither, for I cannot do anything until thou be come thither.	21 And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken. 22 Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither.
29 And the name of the city was called Zoar. Therefore the sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.	Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar. 23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
30 And the Lord did not destroy Sodom until Lot had entered into Zoar.
31 And then, when Lot had entered into Zoar, the Lord rained upon Sodom, and upon Gomorrah; for the angels called upon the name of the Lord for brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.	24 Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven;
32 And thus they overthrew those cities and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.	25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
33 But it came to pass, when Lot fled, his wife looked back from behind him, and became a pillar of salt.	26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
34 And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord; and he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and behold, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.	27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord: 28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
35 And it came to pass, when God had destroyed the cities of the plain, that God spake unto Abraham, saying, I have remembered Lot, and sent him out of the midst of the overthrow, that thy brother might not be destroyed, when I overthrew the city in the which thy brother Lot dwelt.	29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
36 And Abraham was comforted. And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar. And he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.	30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.
37 And the firstborn dealt wickedly, and said unto the younger, Our father has become old, and we have not a man on the earth to come in unto us, to live with us after the manner of all that live on the earth;	31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
38 Therefore come, let us make out father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.	32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
39 And they did wickedly, and made their father drink wine that night; and the firstborn went in and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.	33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
40 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father; let us make him drink wine this night also, and go thou in and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.	34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
41 And they made their father drink wine that night also; and the younger arose, and lay with him, and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.	35 And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
42 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.	36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
43 And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab; the father of the Moabites, the same which are unto this day.	37 And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
44 And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Ben- ammi; the father of the children which are Ammonites; the same which are unto this day.	38 And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Benammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
CHAPTER 20	CHAPTER 20
2 And Abraham said again of Sarah his wife, She is my sister.	2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister:
3 And Abimelech, king of Gerar, sent and took Sarah. But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said unto him, Behold, thou hast taken a woman which is not thine own, for she is Abraham's wife.	and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah. 3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou art but a dead man, for the woman which thou hast taken; for she is a man's wife.
4 And the Lord said unto him, Thou shalt return her unto Abraham, for it thou do it not thou shalt die.
5 And Abimelech had not come near her; for the Lord had not suffered him.	4 But Abimelech had not come near her:
6 And he said, Lord, wilt thou slay me, and also a righteous nation? Behold, said he not unto me, She is my sister? And she, even she herself said, He is my brother; and in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my hands have I done this.	and he said, Lord, wilt thou slay also a righteous nation? 5 Said he not unto me, She is my sister? and she, even she herself said, He is my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my hands have I done this.
7 And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst do this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me; therefore suffered I not thee to touch her.	6 And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touch her.
8 Now, therefore, restore the man's wife to him, for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live; and if thou restore her not to him, know thou that thou shalt surely die; thou and all that are thine.	7 Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine.
9 Therefore, Abimelech arose early in the morning, and called his servants, and told all these things in their ears; and the men were sore afraid.	8 Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears: and the men were sore afraid.
10 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him, What hast thou done unto us? and in what have I offended thee that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? 11 Thou hast done things unto me that ought not to be done. And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?	9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him, What hast thou done unto us? and what have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done. 10 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?
12 And Abraham said, Because I thought assuredly the fear of God was not in this place, and they would slay me for my wife's sake;	11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.
13 And yet indeed she was my sister; she was the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.	12 And yet indeed she is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
14 And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said unto her, This shall be thy kindness which thou shalt show unto me, at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.	13 And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said unto her, This is thy kindness which thou shalt shew unto me; at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.
15 And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and menservants, and womenservants, and gave unto Abraham, and restored unto him Sarah his wife.	14 And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and womenservants, and gave them unto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
16 And Abimelech said, Behold, my land lieth before thee; dwell where it pleaseth thee.	15 And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
17 And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver; behold, he shall give unto thee a covering of the eyes, and it shall be a token unto all that thou mayest not be taken again from Abraham thy husband. And thus she was reproved.	16 And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver: behold, he is to thee a covering of the eyes, unto all that are with thee, and with all other: thus she was reproved.
18 So Abraham prayed unto God; and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants, and they bare unto him children.	17 So Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bare children.
19 For because of Sarah, Abraham's wife, the Lord had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech.	18 For the Lord had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham's wife.
CHAPTER 21	CHAPTER 21
1 And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did unto Sarah as he had spoken by the mouth of his angels; for Sarah conceived and bear Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which the angels of God had spoken to him.	1 And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did unto Sarah as he had spoken. 2 For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
2 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bear unto him, Isaac.	3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.
3 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac, he being eight days old, as God had commanded him.	4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him.
4 And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born unto him.	5 And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born unto him.
5 And Sarah said, God has made me to rejoice; and also all that know me will rejoice with me.	6 And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.
6 And she said unto Abraham, Who would have said that Sarah should have given children suck? For I was barren, but the Lord promised, and I have borne unto Abraham a son in his old age.	7 And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in his old age.
7 And the child grew, and was weaned. And the day that Isaac was weaned, Abraham made a great feast, and Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which Hagar had borne unto Abraham, mocking; and she was troubled.	8 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned. 9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.
8 Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, Isaac.	10 Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
9 And this thing was very grievous unto Abraham because of his son.	11 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.
10 And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight, because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah has said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.	12 And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.

35 And he shall have judgment, and shall write the word of the Lord. And he shall not speak many words, for I will write unto him my law by the finger of mine own hand. And I will make a spokesman for him, and his name shall be called Aaron.
36 And it shall be done unto thee in the last days also, even as I have sworn.

And thus they remembered the oath which they sware unto him.	26 So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.

"Take away the Book of Mormon and the revelations, and where is our religion? We have none…" -Joseph Smith, 1834

"Take up the Bible, compare the religion of the Latter-day Saints with it, and see if it will stand the test." -Brigham Young, 1873

We will attempt to provide a comparison outline of the many changes made to the KJV. To give you an idea of what the JST includes, the book of Genesis (JST) contains among its 200 alterations: a prophecy regarding the coming of Joseph Smith; god telling Adam and Eve they could choose for themselves whether or not to eat the 'forbidden' fruit; the fact that instead of being ashamed, "…when they comprehended the implications of the Fall, Adam and Eve sort of jumped up and clicked their heels"⁷; and that it was Noah, not the Lord, who was sorry that God made man.

Throughout the Bible, scripture that did not fit Joseph Smith's doctrine was changed so that it now conforms easily with Mormonism. For example, Joseph Smith claimed to have seen and spoken to God when he had his First Vision in 1820. This vision is the bedrock of the Mormon Church. However, the Bible makes it clear that men cannot see God in the manner in which Joseph claims to have done. This problem is erased in the JST as we see the words Joseph added to the KJV text (italicized): Exodus 33:20 says, "Thou canst not see my face at this time." John 1:19 says, "…and no man hath seen God at any time, except he hath borne record of the Son." 1 John 4:12 says, "No man hath seen God at any time except them who believe." The reader might ask if the JST 'corrections' can in any way be supported by the Hebrew and Greek manuscripts. An LDS scholar answers: "…if the JST offered no more than the biblical manuscripts or if it were completely supported by them, there would have been no need for a JST. Of course it is not supported by the manuscripts…The JST is a witness for Jesus Christ. It is a witness for the divine calling of Joseph Smith as a prophet and apostle of Jesus Christ. Many people seem to go about it backwards.

Joseph Smith taught that while preserving the Bible, "Ignorant translators, careless transcribers, or designing and corrupt priests have committed many errors." Joseph Fielding Smith, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p.327

In 1850, LDS Apostle Orson Pratt taught: "If it be admitted that the apostles and evangelists did write the books of the New Testament, that does not prove of itself that they were divinely inspired at the time they wrote…Add all this imperfection to the uncertainty of the translation, and who, in his right mind could for one moment suppose the Bible in its present form to be a perfect guide? Who knows that even one verse of the Bible has escaped pollution, so as to convey the same sense now that it did in the original?" Orson Pratt, Divine Authenticity of the Book of Mormon, pp. 45, 47

This official opinion of the Bible is not confined to century-old teachings. In 1966 an Authority in the LDS Church wrote concerning this Book: "Many insertions were made, some of them 'slanted' for selfish purposes, while at times deliberate falsifications and fabrications were perpetrated." Mark E. Petersen, As Translated Correctly, p.4

The tenth Prophet of the Mormon Church explained how faithful members can, in spite of all the supposed problems with our present Bible, still use it in an edifying way: "Guided by the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and the Spirit of the Lord, it is not difficult for one to discern the errors in the Bible." Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, vol. 3, p. 191

The LDS Church recognizes the King James Version above all other translations and uses it exclusively. However, because of the purported unreliability of the KJV, Joseph Smith rewrote the Bible in the early 1830's. He accomplished this feat without benefit of Hebrew or Greek manuscripts, claiming that he was 'restoring' precious truths which had formerly been lost; and this by the gift and power of God. This 'restoration' is known today as the Joseph Smith Translation (JST).

For over 100 years the existence of the JST was little known among Mormons, and the use of it was severely discouraged. The Church maintained that Joseph never completed the translation (despite evidence to the contrary), therefore rendering the JST just as dubious as the KJV.

In recent years the leadership of the Church has changed its tune. In 1979 the LDS Church published a new edition of the King James Bible which includes extensive footnotes as well as a seventeen-page section of excerpts from the JST. All told, this LDS Bible contains nearly seven hundred noted alterations of the King James text. The complete manuscripts of the JST embodies around 1,150 passages or verses added or changed by Joseph Smith.

Not only are the Mormon people now encouraged to be aware of and use the changes Joseph Smith made to the Bible, but they are taught, "There is so much beauty and depth of doctrine and insight to be had within the Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible that it is foolish to study and teach without it…Those who love and revere the name and labors of Joseph Smith should be pleased and enthusiastic to receive whatever God has chosen to reveal through his modern seer and lawgiver." Robert L. Millet, Ibid., p.46

They want to test Joseph Smith by the content of the inadequate [biblical] manuscripts…The Book of Mormon and the JST are the proper standards by which to measure the accuracy of the ancient Bible." Robert J. Matthews, Ibid., pp. 286, 289

An associate professor at LDS Church owned Brigham Young University summed it up nicely: "When it came to the Bible, Joseph Smith spoke as one having authority, and rightly so, for save Jesus only, no man ever walked the face of the earth that had greater knowledge of the Bible than he had…Joseph Smith was a living Bible, and he has done more to enhance the world's understanding of that great book than any other man who lived in it." Joseph F. McConkie, Ibid. pp.,118,119

Tragically, the LDS people are left with a Holy Bible which promises: "The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever" while their spiritual leaders insist that it cannot be trusted. Instead of having confidence in God's Word, they must put their faith in the words of a man who, after giving a prophecy which failed, explained: "Some revelations are of God: some revelations are of man: and some revelations are of the devil." David Whitmer, An Address to All Believers in Christ, p. 31

Books of the Bible not listed were untouched. These are links that will take you off site. If these links fail to work please drop a quick email to let us know. With or with out the following books, the changes Joseph Smith made to the Bible in the three books shown above is sufficient cause, based on the verse in Proverbs, to consider Joseph Smith a liar!

The LDS Articles of Faith numbers 8 and 9 are the foundation for the Mormon view of scripture.

Notice that in article eight the Bible is the word of God "as far as it is translated correctly." The Book of Mormon is the word of God without reservation.

When the Bible contradicts Mormonism, they say it is translated incorrectly or that those plain and precious truths were deleted or changed by scribes long ago. When the Book of Mormon contradicts Mormon theology, the discrepancies are ignored or rationalized. It is interesting that the Bible and Book of Mormon often agree while disagreeing with Mormonism.

9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.

The Mormon view of authority in article nine is that God continues to reveal teachings and interpretations through latter-day prophets. This has been expanded in practice to mean that a latter revelation supersedes an earlier revelation.

Saying they believe all that God has revealed is an insult to Christians. Mormons believe God has given three additional books of scripture and latter-day prophets. Since we do not accept these, many of them claim we have only part of the gospel.

More serious than the insult to Christians, however, is that latter revelation superseding earlier revelation is an insult to God. Jesus was wrong when He said that heaven and earth would pass away but His words would never pass away. The God who inspired the Psalmist to write, "Forever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven" has failed to communicate that word, if Mormonism is right.

The man who leads the Mormon church can, at any time, announce a revelation that contradicts everything they have previously preached, and it would be binding. It has happened in my lifetime. The 1978 revelation allowing dark skinned people to receive the priesthood contradicted 148 years of Mormon theology. The Book of Mormon had to be revised in 1981 to accommodate this change in theology.

Taken together, these two Articles of Faith teach that the Bible is authoritative, but it is the least authoritative of the Mormon scriptures. It is the only one that contains errors. This view allows them to accept passages about the hand of God or the eyes of the Lord as teaching that God has a physical body. This view allows them to reject passages about God being a spirit or God dwelling in the heart because they are the corruptions of scribes and translators.

"The Church uses the King James Version of the Bible, but acceptance of the Bible is coupled with a reservation that it is true only insofar as translated correctly (Eighth Article of Faith). The other three, having been revealed in modern times in English, are accepted without qualification." (Mormon Doctrine, p. 764)

Joseph Smith began rewriting the Bible in 1830.

The Book of Mormon states that "many plain and precious things [have been] taken away from the book, which is the book of the lamb of God" (1 Nephi 13:28). Most of Smith's translation was added to the footnotes or appendices of the 1979 Mormon edition of the King James Version.

Thomas Paine's skeptical 1790 book, The Age of Reason, may have influenced Joseph's inspiration. For one example, Paine doubted Moses wrote the creation account in Genesis because it does not begin, "The Lord spake unto Moses, saying..." Joseph Smith's rewritten Bible begins, "The Lord spake unto Moses, saying..." We have second hand accounts showing that Joseph had access to Paine's book.

Another interesting bit of inspiration occurs in Luke 10:22, which is 10:23 in Joseph Smith's rewritten Bible. "...No man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son..." was changed to, "...no man knoweth that the Son is the Father, and the Father is the Son..." That removes the distinction between the person of the Father and the person of the Son. It gives us reason to suspect that the modalistic indications in the Book of Mormon are not unfortunate accidents of phrasing.

Contrary to Mormon claims, the evidence for the integrity of the Bible from ancient times is overwhelming. Textual evidence from thousands of manuscripts consistently confirms the accurate transmission of the text. A spelling error in one manuscript can be corrected from a dozen others. A line omitted in one family of manuscripts can be detected by comparisions with other manuscript families. Lines added have been found as margin notes which were eventually copied into the text. Some Old Testament manuscripts have been found which are 900 years older than texts of the same passages available in Joseph Smith's day. These texts, going back before Jesus was incarnated (and the supposed corruption of the Bible) also confirm the accurate transmission of the text. God has preserved His Word.

Sir Fredic Kenyon said, "It is reassuring at the end to find that the general result of all these discoveries and all this study is to strengthen the proof of the authenticity of the Scriptures [The Bible], and our conviction that we have in our hands, in substantial integrity, the veritable Word of God." (The Story of the Bible, 1936 edition, p. 144)

Several LDS leaders have expressed their distain for the biblical teaching of salvation by grace through faith alone. Joseph Fielding Smith, on page 192 of The Restoration of All Things, stated, "One of the most pernicious doctrines ever advocated by man, is the doctrine of 'justification by faith alone,' which has entered into the hearts of millions since the days of the so-called 'reformation.'"

Spencer W. Kimball echoed the same sentiments in his book, The Miracle of Forgiveness. Under the sub-heading "Faith and Works" (p. 206), the 12th LDS President wrote, "In view of the emphasis thus far made on the importance of good works in returning from sin and establishing a repentant life, it may be well to say a word about the idea of salvation by faith alone. Some people not of our Church like to quote, in support of that concept, the following words of Paul: 'For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.' (Eph. 2:8-9.)" Kimball went on to say, "One of the most fallacious doctrines originated by Satan and propounded by man is that man is saved alone by the grace of God; that belief in Jesus Christ alone is all that is needed for salvation."

Such comments seem to overlook one very important "correction" Joseph Smith made to the Bible in 1833. In his Inspired Version (A.K.A. Joseph Smith Translation) of the Bible, Smith altered Romans 3:28. The King James Version (the official Bible of the LDS Church) reads: "Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law." However, Joseph Smith included one simple word to his rendition of this beloved passage. In his "translation" Smith added the word alone. Today it reads: "Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith alone without the deeds of the law."

Smith's insertion parallel's that of Martin Luther's 1528 translation of the Bible. Though no Greek manuscript supports the inclusion of the word "alone" in this particular passage, Luther insisted that it should remain in his text. Still, Smith's correction is not consistent with other changes he made. For instance, in Romans 4:16 the JST states, "ye are justified of faith and works."

Adding to the confusion is Smith's rendition of Romans 4:5. In the King James Version it correctly reads, "But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness." For some unknown reason Smith added the word not into the passage. In the JST Romans 4:4 reads, "But to him that seeketh not to be justified by the law of works, but believeth on him who justifieth not the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness."

Smith's three-letter addition completely changes the meaning of the passage. How can a sinner's faith be counted for righteousness if Christ does not justify the ungodly? If this is a correct translation of Romans 4:4, then it would seem that all of mankind is lost, for as Romans 3:10 clearly states, "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one." By the way, Smith left Romans 3:10 intact.
