3 Nephi 8:42 - 3 Nephi 8:52
42 And I give unto you a commandment that ye shall do these things.
43 And if ye shall always do these things, blessed are ye, for ye are built upon my rock.
44 But whoso among you shall do more or less than these, are not built upon my rock, but are built upon a sandy foundation;
45 And when the rain descends, and the floods come, and the winds blow, and beat upon them, they shall fall, and the gates of hell are already open to receive them:
46 Therefore blessed are ye if ye shall keep my commandments, which the Father hath commanded me that I should give unto you.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye must watch and pray always, lest ye be tempted by the devil, and ye are led away captive by him.
48 And as I have prayed among you, even so shall ye pray in my church, among my people who do repent and are baptized in my name.
49 Behold I am the light; I have set an example for you.
50 And it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words unto his disciples, he turned again unto the multitude, and said unto them, Behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye must watch and pray always, lest ye enter into temptation;
51 For Satan desireth to have you, that he may sift you as wheat; therefore ye must always pray unto the Father in my name; and whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, which is right, believing that ye shall receive, behold it shall be given unto you.
52 Pray in your families unto the Father, always in my name, that your wives and your children may be blessed.
43 And if ye shall always do these things, blessed are ye, for ye are built upon my rock.
44 But whoso among you shall do more or less than these, are not built upon my rock, but are built upon a sandy foundation;
45 And when the rain descends, and the floods come, and the winds blow, and beat upon them, they shall fall, and the gates of hell are already open to receive them:
46 Therefore blessed are ye if ye shall keep my commandments, which the Father hath commanded me that I should give unto you.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye must watch and pray always, lest ye be tempted by the devil, and ye are led away captive by him.
48 And as I have prayed among you, even so shall ye pray in my church, among my people who do repent and are baptized in my name.
49 Behold I am the light; I have set an example for you.
50 And it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words unto his disciples, he turned again unto the multitude, and said unto them, Behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye must watch and pray always, lest ye enter into temptation;
