until the fifth year of the reign of the judges.

were called the Nephites, or the people of Nephi,

from that time forth —

for these are the words which he said to Nephi:

Behold, the Lamanites have I cursed,

from this time henceforth and forever,

except they repent of their wickedness and turn to me

that I may have mercy upon them.

he that departeth from thee shall no more be called thy seed;

in the same place where the first army met the Amlicites.
