1 Nephi 1:14

And it came to pass that when my father had read

and seen many great and marvelous things,

he did exclaim many things unto the Lord; such as:

Great and marvelous are thy works, O Lord God Almighty!

Thy throne is high in the heavens,

and thy power, and goodness, and mercy are over all the inhabitants of the earth;

and, because thou art merciful,

thou wilt not suffer those who come unto thee that they shall perish!

1 Nephi 1:20

And when the Jews heard these things they were angry with him;

yea, even as with the prophets of old,

whom they had cast out, and stoned, and slain;

and they also sought his life, that they might take it away.

But behold, I, Nephi, will show unto you

that the tender mercies of the Lord are over all those

whom he hath chosen, because of their faith,

to make them mighty even unto the power of deliverance.

1 Nephi 2:22

And inasmuch as thou shalt keep my commandments,

thou shalt be made a ruler and a teacher over thy brethren.

1 Nephi 2:23

For behold, in that day that they shall rebel against me,

I will curse them even with a sore curse,

and they shall have no power over thy seed

except they shall rebel against me also.

1 Nephi 3:29

And it came to pass as they smote us with a rod,

behold, an angel of the Lord came and stood before them,

and he spake unto them, saying:

Why do ye smite your younger brother with a rod?

Know ye not that the Lord hath chosen him to be a ruler over you,

and this because of your iniquities?

Behold ye shall go up to Jerusalem again,

and the Lord will deliver Laban into your hands.
