4 And he labored diligently that he might lead away the hearts of the people, insomuch that he did lead away many hearts.

5 And he knowing that I, Jacob, had faith in Christ which should come, Wherefore, he sought much opportunity that he might come unto me;

6 And he was learned, that he had a perfect knowledge of the language of the people; Wherefore, he could use much flattery and much power of speech according to the power of the devil.

7 And he had hope to shake me from the faith, notwith - standing the many revelations and the many things which I had seen concerning these things; For I truly had seen angels and they had ministered unto me,

8 And also, I had heard the voice of the Lord speaking unto me in very word from time to time, Wherefore, I could not be shaken.

9 And it came to pass that he came unto me and on this wise did he speak unto me, saying: "Brother Jacob, I have sought much opportunity that I might speak unto you, For I have heard and also know that thou goest about much, preaching that which ye call the gospel, or the doctrine of Christ;

10 And ye have led away much of this people, that they pervert the right way of God and keep not the law of Moses, which is the right way, And convert the law of Moses into the worship of a Being which ye say shall come many hundred years hence.

12 And after this manner did Sherem contend against me;

13 But behold, the Lord God poured in His Spirit into my soul, insomuch that I did confound him in all his words.

14 And I saith unto him: "Deniest thou the Christ which should come?"
