21 And it came to pass that when Moroni had proclaimed these words, behold, the people came running atogether with their armor girded about their loins, brending their garments in token, or as a ccovenant,
that they would not forsake the Lord their God; or, in other words, if
they should transgress the commandments of God, or fall into
transgression, and be dashamed to take upon them the name of Christ, the Lord should rend them even as they had rent their garments.
22 Now this was the covenant which they made, and they acast their garments at the feet of Moroni, saying: We bcovenant
with our God, that we shall be destroyed, even as our brethren in the
land northward, if we shall fall into transgression; yea, he may cast us
at the feet of our enemies, even as we have cast our garments at thy
feet to be trodden under foot, if we shall fall into transgression.
23 Moroni said unto them: Behold, we are a aremnant of the seed of Jacob; yea, we are a remnant of the seed of bJoseph, whose ccoat
was rent by his brethren into many pieces; yea, and now behold, let us
remember to keep the commandments of God, or our garments shall be rent
by our brethren, and we be cast into prison, or be sold, or be slain.
24 Yea, let us preserve our liberty as a aremnant of Joseph; yea, let us remember the words of Jacob, before his death, for behold, he saw that a bpart of the cremnant of the coat of Joseph was dpreserved and had not decayed. And he said—Even as this remnant of garment of my son hath been preserved, so shall a eremnant
of the seed of my son be preserved by the hand of God, and be taken
unto himself, while the remainder of the seed of Joseph shall perish,
even as the remnant of his garment.
