Jacob 2:35

Behold, ye have done greater iniquities than the Lamanites, our brethren. Ye have broken the hearts of your tender wives, and lost the confidence of your children, because of your bad examples before them; and the sobbings of their hearts ascendeth up to God against you. And because of the strictness of the word of God, which cometh down against you, many hearts died, pierced with deep wounds.

You have done worse things than our brothers, the Lamanites. You have broken your gentle wives’ hearts. You have lost your children’s trust because of your bad examples. Their crying hearts go up to God against you. Because of God’s strict word against you, many hearts have died with deep wounds.

You’ve sinned worse than the Lamanites. You’ve broken your wives’ hearts and lost your children’s trust because of your bad example. Their grief rises up to God against you. And because of God’s firm word coming down on you, many are dying inside, pierced with deep wounds.
