Every corruptible thing, both of man, or of the beasts of the field, or of the fowls of the heavens, or of the fish of the sea, that dwells upon all the face of the earth, shall be consumed. 101:24
I [Jesus] say to you [Oliver Cowdery]:
Because you didn't translate what you wanted to translate, I'll only allow you to be Joseph Smith's scribe.
But someday I'll let you translate some other things.
9:1
Because you didn't continue translating, I've taken away your translating privileges.
9:5
Don't whine. It's wise for me to deal with you this way.
9:6
Here's the way to make a decision: Think about it. Then ask me if it's right. If it's right, I'll make your bosom burn,
so you'll feel that it's right.
9:8
But if it's not right, you won't have these good feelings. And you'll forget about it. That way, you'll only write
sacred things from me.
9:9
If you had known this, you could have translated. But it's not expedient for you to translate now.
9:10
