1 Nephi 17:55

And now, they said:

We know of a surety that the Lord is with thee,

for we know that it is the power of the Lord that has shaken us.

And they fell down before me, and were about to worship me,

but I would not suffer them, saying:

I am thy brother, yea, even thy younger brother;

wherefore, worship the Lord thy God,

and honor thy father and thy mother,

that thy days may be long in the land

which the Lord thy God shall give thee.

1 Nephi 19:6

Nevertheless, I do not write anything upon plates

save it be that I think it be sacred.

And now, if I do err,

even did they err of old;

not that I would excuse myself because of other men,

but because of the weakness which is in me, according to the flesh,

I would excuse myself.

1 Nephi 19:7

For the things which some men esteem to be of great worth,

both to the body and soul,

others set at naught and trample under their feet.

Yea, even the very God of Israel do men trample under their feet;

I say, trample under their feet

but I would speak in other words —

they set him at naught, and hearken not to the voice of his counsels.
