1 Nephi 1:1

I, Nephi, having been born of goodly parents,

therefore I was taught somewhat in all the learning of my father;

and having seen many afflictions in the course of my days,

nevertheless, having been highly favored of the Lord in all my days;

yea, having had a great knowledge of the goodness and the mysteries of God,

therefore I make a record of my proceedings in my days.

But I shall make an account of my proceedings in my days.

Behold, I make an abridgment of the record of my father,

upon plates which I have made with mine own hands;

wherefore, after I have abridged the record of my father

then will I make an account of mine own life.

And it came to pass that

I was constrained by the Spirit that I should kill Laban;
