concerning the things which he saw in a vision,

and also the things which he spake by the power of the Holy Ghost,

which power he received by faith on the Son of God

— and the Son of God was the Messiah who should come —

I, Nephi, was desirous also

it goeth forth unto all the nations of the Gentiles;

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,

which are among thy brethren.

and smitten them by the hand of the Gentiles,

and after the Gentiles do stumble exceedingly,

because of the most plain and precious parts of the gospel of the Lamb

which have been kept back by that abominable church,

which is the mother of harlots, saith the Lamb —

much of my gospel, which shall be plain and precious, saith the Lamb.
