Katak ippād make bwe jepļaaktok in gospel eo an Jisōs Kraist ej m̧ool emaron̄ in juon en̄jake eo eļaptata im elem̧ōņōņō ilo mour. Jemaron̄ jino pedped e ioon naan in kam̧ool ko an ro jet―āinwōt an likao em̧m̧an de ro kar kōm̧m̧ane, “kōm̧ij jab pere ke ro jinām raar jeļā.”³ Ej juon jikin em̧m̧an n̄an ijjino, bōtaab jej aikuj kalōke jen ijeņ. N̄an kajoor ilo mour kake gospel in, ejjeļo̧k men en eaorōk ļo̧k jen bōk im kōkajoor ļo̧k naan in kam̧ool eo ad make. Jej maron̄ kwaļo̧k, āinwōt kar Alma, “Ijeļā … men kein n̄an eō make.”⁴

“Im ekōjkan ilo ami kōtmāne bwe ijeļā kōn aer m̧ool?” Alma eaar ba. “Lo, ij ba n̄an kom̧ men kein kar kwaļo̧k n̄an eō jān Jetōb Kwojarjar an Anij. Lo, iaar jitlo̧k im jar elōn̄ raan ko bwe in maron̄ jeļā men kein n̄an eō make. Im kiiō i jeļā make bwe re m̧ool.”⁵

Āinwōt Alma, Nipai eaar barāinwōt jeļā m̧ool eo n̄an e make. Ālkin ron̄jake an jemān kōnono kōn en̄jake ko an rellōn̄ kōn jetōb, Nipai eaar kōņaan jeļā ta eo jemān eaar jeļā. Menin eaar ļapļo̧k jen kōņaan―eaar juon men eo eaar kwōle im maro kake. Men̄e eaar “inono otem inono” eaar “ļap aō ikdelel n̄an jeļā kōn men ko rettino an Anij.”⁶ Eaar kanooj kōņaan lo, im ron̄ im jeļā men kein, kōn kajoor eo an Jetōb Kwojarjar.”⁷

Ke Nipai “eaar jijet im lin̄ōri ilo buru[wōn] kar bōkļo̧k e ilo Jetōb in Irooj … ilo juon to̧l eutiej otem uteej, ijo kar kajjitōk ippān, “ta kwōj kōņaan?” Uwaak eo an epidodo: “Ikōņaan bwe in lo men ko jema eaar loi.”⁸ Kōn tōmak eo an buruwōn im kijejeto ko an, Nipai eaar jeram̧m̧an kōn juon en̄jake eo ekabwilōn̄kōn̄. Eaar bōk juon kam̧ool kōn lo̧tak, mour, im Dābweel eo an Rilo̧mo̧o̧r Jisōs Kraist; eaar lo itok eo an Bok in Mormon im Jepļaaktok eo an gospel in ilo raan kein āliktata―eaar juon tōprak in ikdeleel eo an n̄an jeļā n̄an e make.⁹

Irooj eaar kōpooj Nipai kōn en̄jake kein an juon make n̄an dipuk mālijjon̄ im apan̄ ko enaaj jelm̧aiki. Raar kōm̧m̧an bwe en jutak kajoor men̄e ro jet ilo baam̧le eo raar apan̄. Emaron̄ kar kōm̧m̧ani kōnke eaar katak kōn e make im eaar jeļā kōn e make. Kar jeram̧m̧an kōn naan in kam̧ool eo an make.

Einļo̧k wōt Nipai, Rikanaan Joseph Smith eaar barāinwōt “inono otem inono” ke “kōļmenļo̧kjeņ eo an kar im̧we n̄an m̧ool an jetōb. N̄an Joseph, eaar juon tōre eļap, im eaar jepo̧o̧l kōn ennaan ko redaabtōk im kapokpok kōn kabun̄. Eaar kōņaan jeļā kabun̄ eo em̧ool.¹⁰ Kar im̧we jen eoon kein ilo Baibōļ: “A eļan̄n̄e jabdewōt iaami ej aikuj mālōtlōt, en kajjitōk kōn e ippān Anij,”¹¹ eaar kōņaan pukot uwaak eo kōn e make n̄an lo juon uwaak. Ilo juon jibbon̄ eaiboojoj ilo jinoin iien jibūriin̄ in 1820, eaar etal n̄an ibūļōn wōjke ko im bukwelōlō im jar. Kōn tōmak eo an im kōnke Anij ewōr juon an jerbal n̄an e ejenolo̧k n̄an kōm̧m̧ane, Joseph eaar bōk visōn eo eaiboojoj an Anij Jemed im Nejin, Jisōs Kraist, im kar jeļā kōn e make ta eo eaikuj kōm̧m̧ane.

Kwoj lo ke en̄jake in an Joseph ilo juon jon̄ak eo komaron̄ mour kake n̄an bōke ak kōkajoor ļo̧k naan in kam̧ool eo am̧ make? Joseph eaar kōtļo̧k an jeje ko rekwojarjar tōl buruwōn. Eaar kōļmenļo̧kjeņ kaki im mour kaki ilo jekjek eo an make. Innām eaar jerbale ta eo eaar ekkatak. Tōprakin eaar visōn eo kein kajuon eaiboojoj―im jabdewōt men eo kar bōk jikin ālkin. Kabun̄ in eaar lukkuun ejaak ioon pedped ko bwe jabdewōt―ekoba ļaddik eo 14 iiō dettan―maron̄ “ kajjitōk kōn e ippān Anij” im bōk juon uwaak n̄an jar eo an.

Ekkā ad ron̄jake an membōr ro an Kabun̄ in ba bwe naan in kam̧ool eo aer kōn gospel in men eo m̧weiier eaorōk. Ej juon menin letok eo ekwojarjar jān Anij me ej itok n̄an kōj kōn kajoor eo an Jetōb Kwojarjar. Elur, pen ilo ad bōke ilo ad ekkatak, jar, im mour kake gospel in. Ej en̄jake ilo Jetōb Kwojarjar ilo an kwaļo̧k kam̧ool eo n̄an jetōb ko ad bwe ta eo jej ekkatak im kōm̧m̧ane ejim̧we.
