Jarom 1:1, 2, 7, 9, 14

Jarom 1:1

Now behold, I, Jarom, write a few words

according to the commandment of my father, Enos,

that our genealogy may be kept.

Jarom 1:2

And as these plates are small,

and as these things are written

for the intent of the benefit of our brethren the Lamanites,

wherefore, it must needs be that I write a little;

but I shall not write the things of my prophesying, nor of my revelations.

For what could I write more than my fathers have written?

For have not they revealed the plan of salvation?

I say unto you, Yea;

and this sufficeth me.

Jarom 1:7

And it came to pass that they came many times against us, the Nephites, to battle.

But our kings and our leaders were mighty men in the faith of the Lord;

and they taught the people the ways of the Lord;

wherefore, we withstood the Lamanites

and swept them away out of our lands,

and began to fortify our cities, or whatsoever place of our inheritance.

Jarom 1:9

And thus being prepared to meet the Lamanites,

they did not prosper against us.

But the word of the Lord was verified, which he spake unto our fathers,

saying that: Inasmuch as ye will keep my commandments

ye shall prosper in the land.

Jarom 1:14

And I, Jarom, do not write more,

for the plates are small.

But behold, my brethren, ye can go to the other plates of Nephi;

for behold, upon them the records of our wars are engraven,

according to the writings of the kings,

or those which they caused to be written.
