Ether 1
Moroni abridges the writings of Ether—Ether's genealogy is set forth—The language of the Jaredites is not confounded at the Tower of Babel—The Lord promises to lead them to a choice land and make them a great nation.
And
now
I,
Moroni,
proceed
to
give
an
a
account
of
those
ancient
inhabitants
who
were
destroyed
by
the
b
hand
of
the
Lord
upon
the
face
of
this
north
country.
2 And
I
take
mine
account
from
the
a
twenty
and
four
plates
which
were
found
by
the
people
of
Limhi,
which
is
called
the
Book
of
Ether.
3 And
as
I
suppose
that
the
a
first
part
of
this
record,
which
speaks
concerning
the
creation
of
the
world,
and
also
of
Adam,
and
an
account
from
that
time
even
to
the
great
b
tower,
and
whatsoever
things
transpired
among
the
children
of
men
until
that
time,
is
had
among
the
Jews—
4 Therefore
I
do
not
write
those
things
which
transpired
from
the
a
days
of
a
Adam
until
that
time;
but
they
are
had
upon
the
plates;
and
whoso
findeth
them,
the
same
will
have
power
that
he
may
get
the
full
account.
5 But
behold,
I
give
not
the
full
account,
but
a
a
part
of
the
account
I
give,
from
the
tower
down
until
they
were
destroyed.
6 And
on
this
wise
do
I
give
the
account.
He
that
wrote
this
record
was
a
Ether,
and
he
was
a
descendant
of
Coriantor.
7 Coriantor
was
the
son
of
Moron.
8 And
Moron
was
the
son
of
Ethem.
9 And
Ethem

son
of
Ahah.
10 And
Ahah

the
son
of
Seth.
11 And
Seth
was
the
son
of
Shiblon.
12 And
Shiblon
was
the
son
of
Com.
13 And
Com
was
the
son
of
Coriantum.
14 And
Coriantum
was
the
son
of
Amnigaddah.
15 And
Amnigaddah
was
the
son
of
Aaron.
16 And
Aaron
was
a
descendant
of
Heth,
who
was
the
son
of
Hearthom.
17 And
Hearthom
was
the
son
of
Lib.
18 And
Lib
was
the
son
of
Kish.
19 And
Kish
was
the
son
of
Corom.
20 And
Corom
was
the
son
of
Levi.
21 And
Levi
was
the
son
of
Kim.
22 And
Kim
was
the
son
of
Morianton.
23 And
Morianton
was
a
descendant
of
Riplakish.
24 And
Riplakish
was
the
son
of
Shez.
25 And
Shez
was
the
son
of
Heth.
26 And
Heth

the
son
of
Com.
27 And
Com

the
son
of

28 And
Coriantum
was
the
son
of
Emer.
29 And
Emer
was
the
son
of
Omer.
30 And
Omer
was
the
son
of
Shule.
31 And
Shule
was
the
son
of
Kib.
32 And
a
Kib
was
the
son
of
b
Orihah,
who
was
the
son
of
Jared;
33 Which
a
Jared
came
forth
with
his
brother
and
their
families,
with
some
others
and
their
families,
from
the
great
tower,
at
the
time
the
Lord
b
confounded
the
language
of
the
people,
and
swore
in
his
wrath
that
they
should
be
scattered
upon
all
the
c
face
of
the
earth;
and
according
to
the
word
of
the
Lord
the
people
were
scattered.
34 And
the
a
brother
of
Jared
being
a
large
and
mighty
man,
and
a
man
highly
favored
of
the
Lord,
Jared,
his
brother,
said
unto
him:
Cry
unto
the
Lord,
that
he
will
not
confound
us
that
we
may
not
b
understand
our
words.
35 And
it
came
to
pass
that
the
brother
of
Jared
did
cry
unto
the
Lord,
and
the
Lord
had
compassion
upon
Jared;
therefore
he
did
not
confound
the
a
language
of
Jared;
and
Jared
and
his
brother
were
not
confounded.
36 Then
Jared
said
unto
his
brother:
Cry
again
unto
the
Lord,
and
it
may
be
that
he
will
turn
away
his
anger
from
them
who
are
our
a
friends,
that
he
confound
not
their
language.
37 And
it
came
to
pass
that
the
brother
of
Jared
did
cry
unto
the
Lord,
and
the
Lord
had
compassion
upon
their
friends
and
their
families
also,
that
they
were
not
confounded.
38 And
it
came
to
pass
that
Jared
spake
again
unto
his
brother,
saying:
Go
and
a
inquire
of
the
Lord
whether
he
will
drive
us
out
of
the
land,
and
if
he
will
drive
us
out
of
the
land,
cry
unto
him
whither
we
shall
go.
And
who
knoweth
but
the
Lord
will
carry
us
forth
into
a
land
which
is
b
choice
above
all
the
earth?
And
if
it
so
be,
let
us
be
faithful
unto
the
Lord,
that
we
may
receive
it
for
our
inheritance.
39 And
it
came
to
pass
that
the
brother
of
Jared
did
cry
unto
the
Lord
according
to
that
which
had
been
spoken
by
the
mouth
of
Jared.
40 And
it
came
to
pass
that
the
Lord
did
hear
the
brother
of
Jared,
and
a
had
compassion
upon
him,
and
said
unto
him:
41 Go
to
and
gather
together
thy
a
flocks,
both
male
and
female,
of
every
kind;
and
also
of
the
b
seed
of
the
earth
of
every
kind;
and
c
thy
d
families;
and
also
Jared
thy
brother
and
his
family;
and
also
thy
e
friends
and
their
families,
and
the
friends
of
Jared
and
their
families.
42 And
when
thou
hast
done
this
thou
shalt
a
go
at
the
head
of
them
down
into
the
valley
which
is
northward.
And
there
will
I
meet
thee,
and
I
will
go
b
before
thee
into
a
land
which
is
c
choice
above
all
the
lands
of
the
earth.
43 And
there
will
I
bless
thee
and
thy
seed,
and
raise
up
unto
me
of
thy
seed,
and
of
the
seed
of
thy
brother,
and
they
who
shall
go
with
thee,
a
great
nation.
And
a
there
shall
be
none
b
greater
than
the
nation
which
I
will
raise
up
unto
me
of
thy
seed,
upon
all
the
face
of
the
earth.
And
thus
I
will
do
unto
thee
because
this
long
time
ye
have
cried
unto
me.
