Ang Panahon ng Mga Jaredita

Ang Pagkabihag ni Hertum, Het, Aaron, Amnigadas, Coriantum at Com

Ether 10:30

Humalili si Hartom sa kanyang ama bilang hari, subalit siya ay napabagsak at dinalang bihag.

And it came to pass that Hearthom reigned in the stead of his father. And when Hearthom had reigned twenty and four years, behold, the kingdom was taken away from him. And he served many years in captivity, yea, even all the remainder of his days.

Ether 10:31

Ang anak ni Hartom na si Het, at ang anak ni Het na si Aaron, at ang anak ni Aaron na si Amnigadas, at ang anak ni Amnigadas na si Coriantum ay namuhay lahat bilang mga bihag; si Coriantum ay may isang anak na lalaki na nagngangalang Com.

And he begat Heth, and Heth lived in captivity all his days. And Heth begat Aaron, and Aaron dwelt in captivity all his days; and he begat Amnigaddah, and Amnigaddah also dwelt in captivity all his days; and he begat Coriantum, and Coriantum dwelt in captivity all his days; and he begat Com.

Ether 10:32

Nagawa ni Com na mabawi ang kalahati sa kaharian; pagkatapos ay nakidigma siya sa karibal na hari, na si Amgid, at naging matagumpay sa pagsakop sa buong kaharian.

And it came to pass that Com drew away the half of the kingdom. And he reigned over the half of the kingdom forty and two years; and he went to battle against the king, Amgid, and they fought for the space of many years, during which time Com gained power over Amgid, and obtained power over the remainder of the kingdom.

Ether 10:33–34

Ang mga lihim na organisasyon ng nakalipas ay muling lumitaw, sa kabila ng mga gawaing pagsalungat ni Com.

And in the days of Com there began to be robbers in the land; and they adopted the old plans, and administered oaths after the manner of the ancients, and sought again to destroy the kingdom. Now Com did fight against them much; nevertheless, he did not prevail against them.

Ether 11:1–4

Maraming mga propeta ang lumitaw at nagbabala laban sa mga lihim na lipunan ng kasamaan; ang mga propeta ay may direktang kaugnayan kay Com, na siyang pinagpala, at nagkaroon ng anak na nagngangalang Siblom.

And there came also in the days of Com many prophets, and prophesied of the destruction of that great people except they should repent, and turn unto the Lord, and forsake their murders and wickedness. And it came to pass that the prophets were rejected by the people, and they fled unto Com for protection, for the people sought to destroy them. And they prophesied unto Com many things; and he was blessed in all the remainder of his days. And he lived to a good old age, and begat Shiblom; and Shiblom reigned in his stead.
