1 Nephi 16:26
And it came to pass that the voice of the Lord said unto him:
Look upon the ball, and behold the things which are written.
1 Nephi 16:27
And it came to pass that when my father beheld the things
which were written upon the ball,
he did fear and tremble exceedingly,
and also my brethren and the sons of Ishmael and our wives.
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 19:7
For the things which some men esteem to be of great worth,
both to the body and soul,
others set at naught and trample under their feet.
Yea, even the very God of Israel do men trample under their feet;
I say, trample under their feet
but I would speak in other words —
they set him at naught, and hearken not to the voice of his counsels.
