Alma 30:16

~74 BC

1830 Edition

Ye look forward and say, that ye see a remission of your sins. But behold, it is the effects of a phrensied mind; and this derangement of your minds comes because of the tradition of your fathers, which lead you away into a belief of things which are not so.

Ye look forward and say, that ye see a remission of your sins. But behold, it is the effects of a phfrenszied mind; and this derangement of your minds comes because of the traditions of your fathers, which lead you away into a belief of things which are not so.

Simple English

You say you see your sins being forgiven. But that’s the result of a crazy mind. Your confused minds come from your fathers’ traditions. These traditions lead you to believe in things that aren’t real.

Paraphrase

'You look ahead and claim you see forgiveness for your sins. But that’s just the effect of a frenzied mind. This confusion comes from your ancestors' traditions, which lead you to believe in things that aren’t real.'
