- 6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? who among the sons of the mighty can be alikened unto the Lord?
- 18 ¶ To whom then will ye aliken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto him?• • •
- 5 ¶ To whom will ye aliken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?
- 13 What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O avirgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is great like the sea: who can heal thee?
- • • •26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a afoolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
- 23 And I did read many things unto them which were written in the abooks of Moses; but that I might more fully persuade them to believe in the Lord their Redeemer I did read unto them that which was written by the prophet bIsaiah; for I did cliken all scriptures unto us, that it might be for our dprofit and learning.24 Wherefore I spake unto them, saying: Hear ye the words of the prophet, ye who are a aremnant of the house of Israel, a bbranch who have been broken off; chear ye the words of the prophet, which were written unto all the house of Israel, and liken them unto yourselves, that ye may have hope as well as your brethren from whom ye have been broken off; for after this manner has the prophet written.
- 5 And now, the words which I shall read are they which Isaiah spake concerning all the house of Israel; wherefore, they may be alikened unto you, for ye are of the house of Israel. And there are many things which have been spoken by Isaiah which may be likened unto you, because ye are of the house of Israel.
- • • •8 And now I write asome of the words of Isaiah, that whoso of my people shall see these words may lift up their hearts and rejoice for all men. Now these are the words, and ye may liken them unto you and unto all men.
- 3 For behold, thus saith the Lord, I will liken thee, O house of aIsrael, like unto a tame bolive-tree, which a man took and nourished in his cvineyard; and it grew, and waxed old, and began to ddecay.
- 24 Therefore, whoso heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, who built his house upon a arock—• • •
- • • •51 Behold, I will liken these kingdoms unto a man having a field, and he sent forth his servants into the field to dig in the field.• • •61 Therefore, unto this parable I will liken all these akingdoms, and the binhabitants thereof—every kingdom in its hour, and in its time, and in its season, even according to the decree which God hath made.
