Out of curiosity I post this below into a reader level test site.

1 And now, behold, my brethren, I have spoken unto you, according as the Spirit hath constrained me; wherefore, I know that they must surely come to pass.
2 And the things which shall be written out of the
abook shall be of great
bworth unto the children of men, and especially unto our seed, which is a
cremnant of the house of Israel.
3 For it shall come to pass in that day that the
achurches which are built up, and not unto the Lord, when the one shall say unto the other: Behold, I, I am the Lord’s; and the others shall say: I, I am the Lord’s; and thus shall every one say that hath built up
bchurches, and not unto the Lord—
4 And they shall contend one with another; and their priests shall contend one with another, and they shall teach with their
alearning, and deny the
bHoly Ghost, which giveth utterance.
5 And they
adeny the
bpower of God, the Holy One of Israel; and they say unto the people: Hearken unto us, and hear ye our precept; for behold there is
cno God today, for the Lord and the Redeemer hath done his work, and he hath given his power unto men;
6 Behold, hearken ye unto my precept; if they shall say there is a miracle wrought by the hand of the Lord, believe it not; for this day he is not a God of
amiracles; he hath done his work.
7 Yea, and there shall be many which shall say:
aEat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die; and it shall be well with us.
8 And there shall also be many which shall say:
aEat, drink, and be
bmerry; nevertheless, fear God—he will
cjustify in committing a little
dsin; yea,
elie a little, take the advantage of one because of his words, dig a
fpit for thy neighbor; there is
gno harm in this; and do all these things, for tomorrow we die; and if it so be that we are guilty, God will beat us with a few stripes, and at last we shall be saved in the kingdom of God.
9 Yea, and there shall be many which shall teach after this manner,
afalse and vain and
bfoolish cdoctrines, and shall be puffed up in their hearts, and shall seek deep to hide their counsels from the Lord; and their works shall be in the dark.
10 And the
ablood of the saints shall cry from the ground against them.
11 Yea, they have all gone out of the
away; they have become
bcorrupted.
12 Because of
apride, and because of
bfalse teachers, and
cfalse doctrine, their churches have become corrupted, and their churches are lifted up; because of pride they are puffed up.
13 They
arob the
bpoor because of their fine sanctuaries; they rob the poor because of their fine clothing; and they persecute the meek and the poor in heart, because in their
cpride they are puffed up.
14 They wear
astiff necks and high heads; yea, and because of pride, and wickedness, and abominations, and
bwhoredoms, they have all
cgone astray save it be a
dfew, who are the humble followers of Christ; nevertheless, they are
eled, that in many instances they do
ferr because they are taught by the precepts of men.
15 O the
awise, and the learned, and the rich, that are puffed up in the
bpride of their
chearts, and all those who preach
dfalse doctrines, and all those who commit
ewhoredoms, and pervert the right way of the Lord,
fwo, wo, wo be unto them, saith the Lord God Almighty, for they shall be thrust down to hell!
16 Wo unto them that
aturn aside the just for a thing of naught and
brevile against that which is good, and say that it is of no worth! For the day shall come that the Lord God will speedily visit the inhabitants of the earth; and in that day that they are
cfully ripe in iniquity they shall perish.
17 But behold, if the inhabitants of the earth shall repent of their wickedness and abominations they shall not be destroyed, saith the Lord of Hosts.
18 But behold, that great and
aabominable church, the
bwhore of all the earth, must
ctumble to the earth, and great must be the fall thereof.
19 For the kingdom of the devil must
ashake, and they which belong to it must needs be stirred up unto repentance, or the
bdevil will grasp them with his everlasting
cchains, and they be stirred up to anger, and perish;
20 For behold, at that day shall he
arage in the
bhearts of the children of men, and stir them up to anger against that which is good.
21 And others will he
apacify, and lull them away into carnal
bsecurity, that they will say: All is well in Zion; yea, Zion prospereth, all is well—and thus the
cdevil dcheateth their souls, and leadeth them away carefully down to hell.
22 And behold, others he
aflattereth away, and telleth them there is no
bhell; and he saith unto them: I am no devil, for there is none—and thus he whispereth in their ears, until he grasps them with his awful
cchains, from whence there is no deliverance.
23 Yea, they are grasped with death, and hell; and death, and hell, and the devil, and all that have been seized therewith must stand before the throne of God, and be
ajudged according to their works, from whence they must go into the place prepared for them, even a
blake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment.
24 Therefore, wo be unto him that is at
aease in Zion!
25 Wo be unto him that crieth: All is well!
26 Yea, wo be unto him that
ahearkeneth unto the precepts of men, and denieth the power of God, and the gift of the Holy Ghost!
27 Yea, wo be unto him that saith: We have received, and we
aneed no more!
28 And in fine, wo unto all those who tremble, and are
aangry because of
bthe truth of God! For behold, he that is built upon the
crock dreceiveth it with gladness; and he that is built upon a sandy foundation trembleth lest he shall fall.
29 Wo be unto him that shall say: We have received the word of God, and we
aneed bno more of the word of God, for we have enough!
30 For behold, thus saith the Lord God: I will give unto the children of men line upon line,
aprecept upon precept, here a little and there a little; and blessed are those who hearken unto my precepts, and lend an ear unto my counsel, for they shall learn
bwisdom; for unto him that
creceiveth I will give
dmore; and from them that shall say, We have enough, from them shall be taken away even that which they have.
31 Cursed is he that putteth his
atrust in man, or maketh flesh his arm, or shall hearken unto the
bprecepts of men, save their precepts shall be given by the power of the Holy Ghost.
32
aWo be unto the Gentiles, saith the Lord God of Hosts! For notwithstanding I shall lengthen out mine arm unto them from day to day, they will deny me; nevertheless, I will be merciful unto them, saith the Lord God, if they will repent and
bcome unto me; for mine
carm is lengthened out all the day long, saith the Lord God of Hosts."
