1 Nephi 7:1

And now I would that ye might know, that

after my father, Lehi, had made an end of prophesying concerning his seed,

it came to pass that the Lord spake unto him again, saying

that it was not meet for him, Lehi,

that he should take his family into the wilderness alone;

but that his sons should take daughters to wife,

that they might raise up seed unto the Lord in the land of promise.

1 Nephi 7:16

And it came to pass that when I, Nephi, had spoken these words unto my brethren,

they were angry with me.

And it came to pass that they did lay their hands upon me,

for behold, they were exceedingly wroth,

and they did bind me with cords,

for they sought to take away my life,

that they might leave me in the wilderness to be devoured by wild beasts.

1 Nephi 8:21

And I saw numberless concourses of people,

many of whom were pressing forward,

that they might obtain the path

which led unto the tree by which I stood.
