Mosiah 7:1

And now, it came to pass that

after king Mosiah had had continual peace for the space of three years,

he was desirous to know concerning the people

who went up to dwell in the land of Lehi-Nephi, or in the city of Lehi-Nephi;

for his people had heard nothing from them

from the time they left the land of Zarahemla;

therefore, they wearied him with their teasings.



Mosiah 7:7

And behold, they met the king of the people

who were in the land of Nephi, and in the land of Shilom;

and they were surrounded by the king's guard,

and were taken, and were bound, and were committed to prison.



Mosiah 8:8

And they were lost in the wilderness for the space of many days,

yet they were diligent, and found not the land of Zarahemla

but returned to this land,

having traveled in a land among many waters,

having discovered a land which was covered with bones of men, and of beasts,

and was also covered with ruins of buildings of every kind,

having discovered a land which had been peopled with a people

who were as numerous as the hosts of Israel.



Mosiah 8:12

And I say unto thee again:

Knowest thou of any one that can translate?

For I am desirous that these records should be translated into our language;

for, perhaps, they will give us a knowledge of a remnant of the people

who have been destroyed,

from whence these records came;

or, perhaps, they will give us a knowledge of this very people

who have been destroyed;

and I am desirous to know the cause of their destruction.



Mosiah 8:14

And behold, the king of the people who are in the land of Zarahemla

is the man that is commanded to do these things,

and who has this high gift from God.
