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

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.

And he said unto them:

Behold, I am Limhi, the son of Noah, who was the son of Zeniff,

who came up out of the land of Zarahemla

to inherit this land, which was the land of their fathers,

who was made a king by the voice of the people.

And he also rehearsed unto them the last words

which king Benjamin had taught them,

and explained them to the people of king Limhi,

so that they might understand all the words which he spake.

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.
