American Indian Moses
A Choice Seer will come from the Native Americans (continued)
…and they that seek to destroy him shall be confounded…I will raise up a Moses; and I will give power unto him in a rod; and I will give judgment unto him in writing. Yet I will not loose his tongue, that he shall speak much, for I will not make him mighty in speaking. But I will write unto him my law…and I will make a spokesman for him.
