1 Nephi 13:29

And after these plain and precious things were taken away

it goeth forth unto all the nations of the Gentiles;

and after it goeth forth unto all the nations of the Gentiles,

yea, even across the many waters which thou hast seen

with the Gentiles which have gone forth out of captivity,

thou seest — because of the many plain and precious things

which have been taken out of the book,

which were plain unto the understanding of the children of men,

according to the plainness which is in the Lamb of God —

because of these things which are taken away out of the gospel of the Lamb,

an exceedingly great many do stumble,

yea, insomuch that Satan hath great power over them.

1 Nephi 13:40

And the angel spake unto me, saying:

These last records, which thou hast seen among the Gentiles,

shall establish the truth of the first,

which are of the twelve apostles of the Lamb,

and shall make known the plain and precious things

which have been taken away from them;

and shall make known to all kindreds, tongues, and people,

that the Lamb of God is the Son of the Eternal Father, and the Savior of the world;

and that all men must come unto him, or they cannot be saved.
