1 Nephi 16:2

And it came to pass that I said unto them

that I knew that I had spoken hard things against the wicked,

according to the truth;

and the righteous have I justified,

and testified that they should be lifted up at the last day;

wherefore, the guilty taketh the truth to be hard,

for it cutteth them to the very center.

And it came to pass that they did humble themselves before the Lord;

insomuch that I had joy and great hopes of them,

that they would walk in the paths of righteousness.

Now ye know that the children of Israel were in bondage;

and ye know that they were laden with tasks,

which were grievous to be borne;

that they should be brought out of bondage.

And it came to pass that I, Nephi, said unto them

that they should murmur no more against their father;

for God had commanded me that I should build a ship.

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 19:18

And I, Nephi, have written these things unto my people,

that perhaps I might persuade them

that they would remember the Lord their Redeemer.
