29 And again he said unto them: If ye teach the law of Moses why do ye not keep it? Why do ye set your
hearts upon riches? Why do ye commit whoredoms and spend your strength with harlots, yea, and cause this people to
commit sin, that the Lord has cause to send me to prophesy against this people, yea, even a great evil against this
people?
30 Know ye not that I speak the truth? Yea,
ye know that I speak the truth; and you ought to tremble before God.
31 And it shall come to pass that ye shall be smitten for your iniquities, for ye have said that ye
teach the law of Moses. And what know ye concerning the law of Moses? Doth salvation come by the law of Moses? What
say ye?
32 And they answered and said that salvation did come by the law of Moses.
33 But now Abinadi said unto them: I know if ye keep the commandments of God ye shall be saved; yea, if
ye keep the commandments which the Lord delivered unto Moses in the mount of Sinai, saying:
34 I am the Lord thy God, who hath brought thee out of the land of
Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
35 Thou shalt have no other God before me.
36 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of
any thing in heaven above, or things which are in the earth beneath.
37 Now Abinadi said unto them, Have ye done all this? I say unto you, Nay, ye have not. And have ye
taught this people that they should do all these things? I say unto you, Nay, ye have not.
