1 Nephi 16:1

And now it came to pass that

after I, Nephi, had made an end of speaking to my brethren,

behold they said unto me:

Thou hast declared unto us hard things,

more than we are able to bear.



1 Nephi 16:23

And it came to pass that I, Nephi, did make out of wood a bow,

and out of a straight stick, an arrow;

wherefore, I did arm myself with a bow and an arrow,

with a sling and with stones.

And I said unto my father:

Whither shall I go to obtain food?



1 Nephi 17:45

Ye are swift to do iniquity

but slow to remember the Lord your God.

Ye have seen an angel, and he spake unto you;

yea, ye have heard his voice from time to time;

and he hath spoken unto you in a still small voice,

but ye were past feeling, that ye could not feel his words;

wherefore, he has spoken unto you like unto the voice of thunder,

which did cause the earth to shake as if it were to divide asunder.



1 Nephi 19:4

Wherefore, I, Nephi, did make a record upon the other plates,

which gives an account, or which gives a greater account

of the wars and contentions and destructions of my people.

And this have I done, and commanded my people

what they should do after I was gone;

and that these plates should be handed down

from one generation to another, or from one prophet to another,

until further commandments of 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.
