3 Nephi 3:3

And it seemeth a pity unto me, most noble Lachoneus,

that ye should be so foolish and vain as to suppose

that ye can stand against so many brave men who are at my command,

who do now at this time stand in their arms,

and do await with great anxiety for the word —

Go down upon the Nephites and destroy them.

3 Nephi 3:6

Therefore I write unto you,

desiring that ye would yield up unto this my people,

your cities, your lands, and your possessions,

rather than that they should visit you with the sword

and that destruction should come upon you.

3 Nephi 3:8

And behold, I swear unto you,

if ye will do this, with an oath, ye shall not be destroyed;

but if ye will not do this, I swear unto you with an oath,

that on the morrow month I will command

that my armies shall come down against you,

and they shall not stay their hand and shall spare not,

but shall slay you, and shall let fall the sword upon you

even until ye shall become extinct.

3 Nephi 3:10

And I write this epistle unto you, Lachoneus,

and I hope that ye will deliver up your lands and your possessions,

without the shedding of blood,

that this my people may recover their rights and government,

who have dissented away from you because of your wickedness

in retaining from them their rights of government,

and except ye do this, I will avenge their wrongs.

I am Giddianhi.

which have been given by those who were before me,

until the commencement of my day;

I am Mormon, and a pure descendant of Lehi.

I have reason to bless my God and my Savior Jesus Christ,

that he brought our fathers out of the land of Jerusalem,

(and no one knew it save it were himself

and those whom he brought out of that land)

and that he hath given me and my people

so much knowledge unto the salvation of our souls.
