Il Libro di Mormon 1852

Translated from English to Italian by order of Lorenzo Snow & co.

Chapter iv page 567 And they did kneel down with the church, and pray to the Father in the name of Christ, saying: O God the Eternal Father, we ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ to bless and sanctify this bread to the souls of all those who partake of it; that they may eat in remembrance of the Body of thy Son, and witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they are willing to take upon them the name of they Son, and always remember him and keep his commandments which he hath given them that they may always have his Spirit to be with them, Amen.

. . . santificare contesto pane per le anime di tutti . . .

 . . . sanctify this bread to the souls of all . . .

Which is the way it should have read, but instead it read:

. . . santificare contesto pane pelle anime di tutti . . .

This translates to bread flesh spirit of all . . .
 
 

I don't remember if it was a mistake of translation or printing error, but it fit the Catholic doctrine of transubstantiation, to a tea. I find it highly ironic that the one of only 2 verses that would be read verbatim over and over again, happens to have a translation error that includes a Catholic doctrine that is totally UN-Mormon!
