Helaman 13:22

1830 Edition

Ye do not remember the Lord your God in the things which he hath blessed you, but ye do always remember your riches, not to thank the Lord your God for them; yea, your heart is not drawn out unto the Lord, but they do swell with great pride, unto boasting, and unto great swelling, envyings, strifes, malice, persecutions, and murders, and all manner of iniquities:

Simple English

“You don’t remember the Lord your God for the things he blessed you with. But you always remember your riches. You don’t thank the Lord your God for them. Your heart doesn’t turn to the Lord. Instead, your hearts get full of pride. You brag. You are jealous. You fight. You are mean. You hurt people. You murder. You do all kinds of wrong things.”

Paraphrase

“You don’t think about the Lord when you count your blessings. You only think about your money—and not to thank God for it. Your hearts aren’t drawn to the Lord. Instead, they swell with pride, arrogance, boasting, envy, conflict, hatred, persecution, murder, and every kind of evil.”
