29 And also that God who brought the children of Israel out of the Land of Egypt and caused that they should walk through the Red Sea on dry ground, And fed them with manna, that they might not perish in the wilderness; And many more things did He do for them.

30 "And again, that same God hath brought our fathers out of the Land of Jerusalem and hath kept and preserved His people, even until now.

31 "And behold, it is because of our iniquities and abominations that has brought us into bondage;

32 And ye all are witnesses this day that Zeniff who was made king over this people, he being overzealous to inherit the land of his fathers,

33 Therefore, being deceived by the cunning and craftiness of King Laman, who having entered into a treaty with King Zeniff, And having yielded up into his hands the possessions of a part of the land, or even the City of Lehi-Nephi and the City of Shilom and the land round about,

34 And all this he did for the sole purpose of bringing this people into subjection, or into bondage.

35 "And behold, we at this time do pay tribute to the king of the Lamanites to the amount of one half of our corn and our barley, and even all our grain of every kind, And one half of the increase of our flocks and our herds;

36 And even one half of all we have or possess the king of the Lamanites doth exact of us, or our lives.

37 "And now, is not this grievous to be borne?

38 And is not this our afflictions great?

39 "Now behold, how great reason have we to mourn!
