Enos 1:1

Behold, it came to pass that

I, Enos, knowing my father that he was a just man —

for he taught me in his language,

and also in the nurture and admonition of the Lord —

and blessed be the name of my God for it —

Enos 1:2

And I will tell you of the wrestle which I had before God,

before I received a remission of my sins.

Enos 1:3

Behold, I went to hunt beasts in the forests;

and the words which I had often heard my father speak

concerning eternal life, and the joy of the saints,

sunk deep into my heart.

Enos 1:10

And while I was thus struggling in the spirit,

behold, the voice of the Lord came into my mind again, saying:

I will visit thy brethren

according to their diligence in keeping my commandments.

I have given unto them this land,

and it is a holy land;

and I curse it not save it be for the cause of iniquity;

wherefore, I will visit thy brethren according as I have said;

and their transgressions will I bring down with sorrow upon their own heads.

Enos 1:19

And now it came to pass that

I, Enos, went about among the people of Nephi,

prophesying of things to come,

and testifying of the things which I had heard and seen.

Enos 1:23

And there was nothing save it was exceeding harshness,

preaching and prophesying of wars, and contentions, and destructions,

and continually reminding them of death,

and the duration of eternity, and the judgments and the power of God,

and all these things — stirring them up continually

to keep them in the fear of the Lord.

I say there was nothing short of these things,

and exceedingly great plainness of speech,

would keep them from going down speedily to destruction.

And after this manner do I write concerning them.

Enos 1:26

And I saw that I must soon go down to my grave,

having been wrought upon by the power of God

that I must preach and prophesy unto this people,

and declare the word according to the truth which is in Christ.

And I have declared it in all my days,

and have rejoiced in it above that of the world.
