1 Nephi 17:43

And now, after all these things,

the time has come that they have become wicked,

yea, nearly unto ripeness;

and I know not but they are at this day about to be destroyed;

for I know that the day must surely come

that they must be destroyed, save a few only,

who shall be led away into captivity.



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 19:8

And behold he cometh, according to the words of the angel,

in six hundred years from the time my father left Jerusalem.
