1 Nephi 16:16

And we did follow the directions of the ball,

which led us in the more fertile parts of the wilderness.



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.



1 Nephi 19:3

And after I had made these plates by way of commandment,

I, Nephi, received a commandment

that the ministry and the prophecies,

the more plain and precious parts of them,

should be written upon these plates;

and that the things which were written

should be kept for the instruction of my people,

who should possess the land,

and also for other wise purposes,

which purposes are known unto the Lord.



1 Nephi 19:5

And an account of my making these plates shall be given hereafter;

and then, behold, I proceed according to that which I have spoken;

and this I do that the more sacred things may be kept

for the knowledge of my people.
