11 For thou hast said that God himself should come down among the children of men;
12 And now for this cause thou shalt be put to death, unless thou wilt recall all the words which thou hast spoken evil concerning me and my people.
13 Now Abinadi said unto him: I say unto you, I will not recall the words which I have spoken unto you concerning this people, for they are true;
14 And that ye may know of their surety, I have suffered myself that I have fallen into your hands.
15 Yea, and I will suffer even until death, and I will not recall my words, and they shall stand as a testimony against you.
16 And if ye slay me, ye will shed innocent blood, and this shall also stand as a testimony against you at the last day.
17 And now King Noah was about to release him, for he feared his word; for he feared that the judgments of God would come upon him.
18 But the priests lifted up their voices against him, and began to accuse him, saying: He has reviled the king.
19 Therefore the king was stirred up in anger against him, and he delivered him up, that he might be slain.
20 And it came to pass that they took him, and bound him, and scourged his skin with fagots, yea, even unto death.
21 And now when the flames began to scorch him, he cried unto them, saying: Behold, even as ye have done unto me, so shall it come to pass that thy seed shall cause that many shall suffer the pains that I do suffer, even the pains of death, by fire; and this because they believe in the salvation of the Lord their God.
