Enos 1:13, 16, 20

Enos 1:13

And now behold, this was the desire which I desired of him —

that if it should so be, that my people, the Nephites, should fall into transgression,

and by any means be destroyed, and the Lamanites should not be destroyed,

that the Lord God would preserve a record of my people, the Nephites;

even if it so be by the power of his holy arm,

that it might be brought forth at some future day unto the Lamanites,

that, perhaps, they might be brought unto salvation —

Enos 1:16

And I had faith, and I did cry unto God

that he would preserve the records;

and he covenanted with me

that he would bring them forth unto the Lamanites in his own due time.

Enos 1:20

And I bear record that the people of Nephi did seek diligently

to restore the Lamanites unto the true faith in God.

But our labors were vain;

their hatred was fixed,

and they were led by their evil nature

that they became wild, and ferocious,

and a blood-thirsty people, full of idolatry and filthiness;

feeding upon beasts of prey;

dwelling in tents, and wandering about in the wilderness

with a short skin girdle about their loins and their heads shaven;

and their skill was in the bow, and in the cimeter, and the ax.

And many of them did eat nothing save it was raw meat;

and they were continually seeking to destroy us.
