La era Jaredita

La cautividad de Heartom, Het, Aarón, Amnigadda, Coriántum y Com

Ether 10:30

Hearthom sucede a su padre como rey, pero es derrocado y tomado prisionero.

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

El hijo de Hearthom, Heth, el hijo de Heth, Aarón, el hijo de Aarón, Amnigaddah, y el hijo de Amnigaddah, Coriantum, todos vivieron como cautivos; Coriantum tiene un hijo llamado 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

Com logra recuperar la mitad del reino; luego va a la guerra con el rey rival, Amgid, y tiene éxito en conquistar todo el reino.

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

La organización secreta del pasado surge nuevamente, a pesar de los esfuerzos de oposición de 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

Muchos profetas surgen y advierten contra las sociedades secretas del mal; los profetas también se asocian directamente con Com, quien es bendecido, y tiene un hijo llamado 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.
