And it came to pass that I, Nephi, did make out of wood a bow,
and out of a straight stick, an arrow;

Whither shall I go to obtain food?

And now, they said:
We know of a surety that the Lord is with thee,
for we know that it is the power of the Lord that has shaken us.
And they fell down before me, and were about to worship me,
but I would not suffer them, saying:
I am thy brother, yea, even thy younger brother;
wherefore, worship the Lord thy God,
and honor thy father and thy mother,
that thy days may be long in the land
which the Lord thy God shall give thee.
1 Nephi 19:2
And I knew not at the time when I made them
that I should be commanded of the Lord to make these plates;
wherefore, the record of my father, and the genealogy of his fathers,
and the more part of all our proceedings in the wilderness
are engraven upon those first plates of which I have spoken;
wherefore, the things which transpired before I made these plates
are, of a truth, more particularly made mention upon the first plates.
