1 Nephi 19:2, 5, 20

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 19:5

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.

1 Nephi 19:20

For behold, I have workings in the spirit, which doth weary me

even that all my joints are weak,

for those who are at Jerusalem;

for had not the Lord been merciful,

to show unto me concerning them,

even as he had prophets of old,

I should have perished also.
