And there was also written upon them a new writing, which was plain to be read,

which did give us understanding concerning the ways of the Lord;

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.

for they are written upon the plates of brass.
