D&C 10:5-29

5Pray always, that you may come off conqueror; yea, that you may conquer Satan, and that you may escape the hands of the servants of Satan that do uphold his work.

6Behold, they have sought to destroy you; yea, even the man in whom you have trusted has sought to destroy you.

7And for this cause I said that he is a wicked man, for he has sought to take away the things wherewith you have been entrusted; and he has also sought to destroy your gift.

8And because you have delivered the writings into his hands, behold, wicked men have taken them from you.

9Therefore, you have delivered them up, yea, that which was sacred, unto wickedness.

10And, behold, Satan hath put it into their hearts to alter the words which you have caused to be written, or which you have translated, which have gone out of your hands.

11And behold, I say unto you, that because they have altered the words, they read contrary from that which you translated and caused to be written;

12And, on this wise, the devil has sought to lay a cunning plan, that he may destroy this work;

13For he hath put into their hearts to do this, that by lying they may say they have caught you in the words which you have pretended to translate.

14Verily, I say unto you, that I will not suffer that Satan shall accomplish his evil design in this thing.

15For behold, he has put it into their hearts to get thee to tempt the Lord thy God, in asking to translate it over again.

16And then, behold, they say and think in their hearts—We will see if God has given him power to translate; if so, he will also give him power again;

17And if God giveth him power again, or if he translates again, or, in other words, if he bringeth forth the same words, behold, we have the same with us, and we have altered them;

18Therefore they will not agree, and we will say that he has lied in his words, and that he has no gift, and that he has no power;

19Therefore we will destroy him, and also the work; and we will do this that we may not be ashamed in the end, and that we may get glory of the world.

20Verily, verily, I say unto you, that Satan has great hold upon their hearts; he stirreth them up to iniquity against that which is good;

21And their hearts are corrupt, and full of wickedness and abominations; and they love darkness rather than light, because their deeds are evil; therefore they will not ask of me.

22Satan stirreth them up, that he may lead their souls to destruction.

23And thus he has laid a cunning plan, thinking to destroy the work of God; but I will require this at their hands, and it shall turn to their shame and condemnation in the day of judgment.

24Yea, he stirreth up their hearts to anger against this work.

25Yea, he saith unto them: Deceive and lie in wait to catch, that ye may destroy; behold, this is no harm. And thus he flattereth them, and telleth them that it is no sin to lie that they may catch a man in a lie, that they may destroy him.

26And thus he flattereth them, and leadeth them along until he draggeth their souls down to hell; and thus he causeth them to catch themselves in their own snare.

27And thus he goeth up and down, to and fro in the earth, seeking to destroy the souls of men.

28Verily, verily, I say unto you, wo be unto him that lieth to deceive because he supposeth that another lieth to deceive, for such are not exempt from the justice of God.

29Now, behold, they have altered these words, because Satan saith unto them: He hath deceived you—and thus he flattereth them away to do iniquity, to get thee to tempt the Lord thy God.
