Ère jaredite

Le Royaume jaredite sous Orihah, Kib et Corihor

Ether 6:28

Orihah commence à régner, et les Jaredites prospèrent.

And he began to reign, and the people began to prosper; and they became exceedingly rich.

Ether 6:29

Jared et son frère meurent tous les deux.

And it came to pass that Jared died, and his brother also.

Ether 6:30

Orihah règne humblement, conscient des bonnes grâces de Dieu envers son peuple.

And it came to pass that Orihah did walk humbly before the Lord, and did remember how great things the Lord had done for his father, and also taught his people how great things the Lord had done for their fathers.

Ether 7:1

Orihah règne longtemps dans la justice.

And it came to pass that Orihah did execute judgment upon the land in righteousness all his days, whose days were exceedingly many.

Ether 7:2

Orihah a 31 enfants, dont 23 sont des fils.

And he begat sons and daughters; yea, he begat thirty and one, among whom were twenty and three sons.

Ether 7:3

Orihah a un autre fils, Kib.

And it came to pass that he also begat Kib in his old age.

Ether 7:3

Kib succède à Orihah en tant que roi.

And it came to pass that Kib reigned in his stead;

Ether 7:3–4

Kib a un fils, Corihor, qui se révolte contre Kib, déserte le peuple Jaredite, et s’établit avec ses partisans dans une terre appelée Néhor.

And Kib begat Corihor. And when Corihor was thirty and two years old he rebelled against his father, and went over and dwelt in the land of Nehor; and he begat sons and daughters, and they became exceedingly fair; wherefore Corihor drew away many people after him.

Ether 7:5–6

Corihor rassemble une armée dans Néhor, et attaque le royaume de Kib, qui se trouve dans un endroit appelé Moron ; Kib est vaincu.

And when he had gathered together an army he came up unto the land of Moron where the king dwelt, and took him captive, which brought to pass the saying of the brother of Jared that they would be brought into captivity. Now the land of Moron, where the king dwelt, was near the land which is called Desolation by the Nephites.

Ether 7:7

Kib vit en captivité sous le règne de son fils Corihor ; pendant sa captivité, il a un fils nommé Shule.

And it came to pass that Kib dwelt in captivity, and his people under Corihor his son, until he became exceedingly old; nevertheless Kib begat Shule in his old age, while he was yet in captivity.

Ether 7:8–9

Shule est en colère contre son frère Corihor ; il fabrique des épées sur une colline appelée Éphraïm, rassemble des partisans et livre avec succès bataille contre Corihor à Néhor, et restaure le royaume à Kib.

And it came to pass that Shule was angry with his brother; and Shule waxed strong, and became mighty as to the strength of a man; and he was also mighty in judgment. Wherefore, he came to the hill Ephraim, and he did molten out of the hill, and made swords out of steel for those whom he had drawn away with him; and after he had armed them with swords he returned to the city Nehor and gave battle unto his brother Corihor, by which means he obtained the kingdom and restored it unto his father Kib.
