Jacob 1:2

And he gave me, Jacob, a commandment that I should write upon these plates

a few of the things which I considered to be most precious;

that I should not touch, save it were lightly,

concerning the history of this people which are called the people of Nephi.

Jacob 1:14

But I, Jacob, shall not hereafter distinguish them by these names,

but I shall call them Lamanites that seek to destroy the people of Nephi,

and those who are friendly to Nephi I shall call Nephites, or the people of Nephi,

according to the reigns of the kings.

Jacob 1:15

And now it came to pass that

the people of Nephi, under the reign of the second king,

began to grow hard in their hearts,

and indulge themselves somewhat in wicked practices,

such as like unto David of old

desiring many wives and concubines,

and also Solomon, his son.
