41 And behold they shall go unto the unbelieving of the Jews; and for this intent shall they go; that they may be persuaded that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God;

42 That the Father may bring about, through his most beloved, his great and eternal purpose, in restoring the Jews, or all the house of Israel, to the land of their inheritance, which the Lord their God hath given them, unto the fulfilling of his covenant,

43 And also that the seed of this people may more fully believe his gospel, which shall go forth unto them from the Gentiles;

44 For this people shall be scattered, and shall become a dark, a filthy, and a loathsome people, beyond the description of that which ever hath been amongst us; yea, even that which hath been among the Lamanites; and this because of their unbelief and idolatry.

45 For behold, the Spirit of the Lord hath already ceased to strive with their fathers, and they are without Christ and God in the world, and they are driven about as chaff before the wind.

46 They were once a delightsome people, and they had Christ for their Shepherd; yea, they were led even by God, the Father.

47 But now, behold they are led about by Satan, even as chaff is driven before the wind, or as a vessel is tossed about upon the waves, without sail or anchor, or without anything wherewith to steer her; and even as she is, so are they.

48 And behold, the Lord hath reserved their blessings, which they might have received in the land, for the Gentiles who shall possess the land.

49 But behold, it shall come to pass that they shall be driven and scattered by the Gentiles; and after they have been driven and scattered by the Gentiles, behold, then will the Lord remember the covenant which he made unto Abraham, and unto all the house of Israel.

50 And also the Lord will remember the prayers of the righteous, which have been put up unto him for them.

51 And then, O ye Gentiles, how can ye stand before the power of God, except ye shall repent and turn from your evil ways!
