The Book of Mormon

Alma 5:31

1830 Edition

Wo unto such an one, for he is not prepared, and the time is at hand that he must repent, or he cannot be saved;

Changes

Woe unto such an one, for he is not prepared, and the time is at hand that he must repent, or he cannot be saved;!

Simple English

This will be very bad for such a person. He is not ready. The time is close when he must turn from his sins. If he doesn’t, he cannot be saved.

Paraphrase

Woe to such a person! They’re not prepared, and the time has come when they must repent or they can’t be saved.
