The Book of Mormon

Moroni 1:4

1830 Edition

Wherefore, I write a few more things, contrary to that which I had supposed: for I had supposed not to have written any more; but I write a few more things, that perhaps they may be of worth unto my brethren, the Lamanites, in some future day, according to the will of the Lord.

Changes

Wherefore, I write a few more things, contrary to that which I had supposed:; for I had supposed not to have written any more; but I write a few more things, that perhaps they may be of worth unto my brethren, the Lamanites, in some future day, according to the will of the Lord.

Simple English

So I will write a few more things. I thought I would not write anymore. But I will write a few more things. Maybe they will help my brothers, the Lamanites, someday. This is what the Lord wants.

Paraphrase

That’s why I’m writing a little more—even though I thought I was finished. Maybe what I write will help my Lamanite brothers someday, if that’s what the Lord wants.
