Mosiah 1:2

And it came to pass that he had three sons;

and he called their names Mosiah, and Helorum, and Helaman.

which were delivered them by the hand of the Lord.

For it were not possible

that our father, Lehi, could have remembered all these things,

to have taught them to his children,

except it were for the help of these plates;

therefore he could read these engravings, and teach them to his children,

that thereby they could teach them to their children,

and so fulfilling the commandments of God,

even down to this present time.

I say unto you, my sons,

were it not for these things,

which have been kept and preserved by the hand of God,

that we might read and understand of his mysteries,

and have his commandments always before our eyes,

that even our fathers would have dwindled in unbelief,

and we should have been like unto our brethren, the Lamanites,

or even do not believe them when they are taught them,

because of the traditions of their fathers, which are not correct.

because we have them before our eyes.

My son, I would that ye should make a proclamation

throughout all this land among all this people,

or the people of Zarahemla, and the people of Mosiah who dwell in the land,

that thereby they may be gathered together;

for on the morrow I shall proclaim unto this my people out of mine own mouth

that thou art a king and a ruler over this people,

whom the Lord our God hath given us.

in keeping the commandments of the Lord.

Yea, and moreover I say unto you, that

if this highly favored people of the Lord should fall into transgression,

as he has hitherto preserved our fathers.

that thereby they might be led, every one

according to the heed and diligence which they gave unto him.

in and through the atoning blood of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent.
